I filled an online inquiry form on the University of Liverpool website about their Master's Degree in Epidemiology & Bio-statistics. Immediately I submitted the form, not up to 5 minutes, I received a call from their customer service representative and we spoke for 16 minutes plus where she explained everything for me in details to my delight.

The gist is, by the time the world, Nigerians in particular, open their eyes to online university education, all these our so called 'universities of first choice & the nation's pride'; the 'better by far' and the 'bla-bla-bla' would have no place in the scheme of things anymore.

In case you are not aware, there are online PhD now; I have a friend who just completed his early this year and the University of Lagos, where he worked, has already congratulated him.

In Nigerian universities, you will still have to print your registration form and submit at the PG School after even doing on line registration; a balderdash!

Yes you are right the challenge of university of liverpool is the tuition fees,for masters in human resourses i was ask to pay 20,000 usd if the money is there no problem cause its a wonderfull experience,am planning applying for the program again.

Aside the tuition fee, and with my experience with online education with Harvard University through Edx, Nigerian Universities should just wake up to the reality or they will be left behind. That's all.
