LA CRAM LA POUR problem tho

Every right thinking Nigerian parent works on the assumprion that his kids will go to university abroad, Foreign Universities, Ivy league and mushroom alike have made an industry out of recruiting students from Nigeria to the point now where they can justify the expense of visiting Nigeria annually to hold student admission fairs. Nigerians are now seeking university education abroad to a point where tuition fees is one of the biggest sector demands on CBN forex, basically Nigerians themselves dont go to Universities in Nigeria anymore except you are broke. So how bad can your options be for you as a foreigner that you are coming to Nigeria to get a University education? Which kind of yeye foreigner are you?


Instead of asking why foreigners are not coming here to study, ask yourself why no self respecting middle class Nigerian will send his child to a Nigerian University. To the point where people are sending their kids abroad as early as secondary school so as to meet the residency requirements for "home fees" by the time they are admitted to University.

God's time is d best

Administration: Administration is a big problem in Nigeria Institutions. You tend to be awe at the way some of our school administrators operate with Impunity and cluelessness.

There are quite a number of international students in ABU. I know there are a few in Unilorin too.

Imagine.


Nairaland mods no dey try abi no FP worthy thread again

Lol. FP na showcase. They use that to attract visitors and casual readers. The real NL community is underground.. Hidden in the various sections, fighting, trolling, cussing, multiple monikers, banned, rebanned and bandana.

THE NEED FOR A WEBSITE

Some universities don't even have a website,how will someone in the UK know they are existing when they are not online.

Don't tell me you are joking. Any school that doesn't have website should be shutdown.

Number 3 is quite far from the truth,the united state does not fund universities,universities are self funded and the fees are expensive,the cost of formal education in Nigeria is not realistic and if you try to increase it there would be problems with the union.formal education is not cheap in fact it is a business on its own

quite a number= failed attempt


for institutes older than 40 years and the total num of foreign students is still less than 30 since inception?


if they can just start from satisfying international interest, half of the problems facing nig units would be solved simply by presentation.

How can it attract international students when lecturers chase their VCs out of the school with juju

Nigeria's infrastructure is not foreign standard friendly. This issue is a no brainer, for God sake we don't even have stable electricity.

What about regular strike action? Spend 6-8 years on a course that shouldn't take more than four years just because of strike.

You are right brother, some foreigners with collaboration of Nigerians now use foreign schools to make money from Nigerians. The only foreigners studying in Nigerian schools are the ones here for exchange courses. Most of them study Nigerian languages as a course.

Op nice, especially your number 4. Cos I don't think any Nigerian University has a portal for International Students....correct me if I'm wrong

We used to have foreigners but now

Do your research.

legalize exam malpractice and experience influx rubbish how will I send my Ward to study here

Let us use MBA as a case study. with the exception of Lagos Business School, i havent seen any MBA in Nigeria that meets international standard. A business school is a huge indicator to the quality of a university if it exists. The Lagos business school for example represents PAN atlantic university and they have a vibrant website. UNILAG on the other hand and OAU ife i doubt have specific websites that caters for MBA programs as is the norm in almost every other country. Lagos business school has quite a number of executive education courses that you can see easily from their website. I cant say the same of other private universities and public universities. There is an African Association of Business Schools(AABS) society that aims to enable business schools in Africa to contribute towards economic growth and development. Only three universities in nigeria are part of the AABS; Pan atlantic university, OAU and UNILAG. what happened to the rest. Further more , in MBA there are three major accreditations to access the quality of the program. The three are AACSB,AMBA and EQUIS. No single Nigerian university has even one for its MBA program whereas University of Cape Town Graduate School of Business, Cape Town and University of Stellenbosch Business School, Cape Town have all three and some other schools in SA have one or two.

Affiliation is also key and method of teaching. Lagos business school teaches using the case method as pioneered by harvard business school. LBS also has affiliations with other top business schools across the globe to share knowledge and content. I dont know if any other uni in nigeria has such for their MBA program.

Even if public unis dont have money i am amazed that the private unis are not running things.

I could go on and on and mind you my focus is just on MBA. if we start taking the other courses one after the other then you will understand how far back nigeria is and why no reasonable international student will come here.

Mind you we lecturers are reading your posts. Some of us got lecturing jobs by connections and not on merits so what do you expect. Even when you try to be hardworking and suggest better ideas they see you to be proud. Nigeria has problems, OP.

Ok

Na I'm one idiot go dey upload pics dey exalt OAU,UNN ,UNILAG etc

Your English sef will discourage any local student, not to talk of international students

How will foreign students cum wen our nigerian universities only settle for midiocrity. D worst brains re given top managerial positions and d gud brains re set aside 4 street works or 2 b under dez pple wit little or no intelligence simply cos his broda is a VC and he's heading a dept. Or being in control he has"conne". Sometimes I begin 2 think with d rate at which tins re deterioratin in nigeria, can it stil b repaired ?...only if I had a chance 2 choose wia I wld b born.

LMAO @ bandana
Dude you cwazy...jeeez

I think quality and recent contents(like this) should be used to attract visitors and what have you too,there are tonnes of it hidden in some sections

To be fair, it tells more about the audience than it does about the moderators. One Olajumoke or snake thread will hit 5 pages before you even refresh.

A thread on science or something less mainstream no fit sew handkerchief sef... Talkless of suit..

I'm not crazy, u r

local students are not attracted u're talking of international...
