For reputation, see this:

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-141689.0.html

I would not know the population of the black Nigerians there but I can almost be confident that majority of the blacks will be of Nigerian origin.

My knowledge will suggest that:

The black population of Oxford and Cambridge is around 1% of total student population.

For other redbricks, maybe about 3% to 6% overall. Sheffield would sit in this category.

Other unis, I don't know. I guess it depends on the region and the Uni. Loughborough and Leicester maybe sits between this category and the above category.

Re: Best School For Masters Degree In The UK? by DisGuy: 1:16pm On Jun 19, 2010
It is not like covenant university, you don't pay fees for feeding that's up to you, accomodation is upto you too

since you are interested in the school one would have expected you to at least check

I just checked the website and there is an estimate there
Re: Best School For Masters Degree In The UK? by kali: 9:33am On Jun 22, 2010
dis guy,
i've checked their website. thanks, but there are schools abroad, whereby the student pays for feeding and accom., that was why i was asking.

The reason I asked that question is that I was wandering how you want to attend Uni in the West (where your course will require research skills) but cannot use the internet to search for a simple a thing as fees for tuition and accommodation. But you can come on internet to ask others to do it for you (something not complex and needs no specialist knowledge)?

You could also not spell Aberdeen?

And you want to go to Uni, most likely as a postgrad?

Fck me Lord.  undecided

Yes, bruv, I do.

One can easily go into Consulting, Internal Strategy, Planning, Research (Market or Policy), Banking, Operations Management and a few more quant-dependent and process-dependent careers.

I am pretty sure you will be able and allowed to rent it for one year.

They only displayed it like that (37 weeks) to let people know they are allowed to rent it for term times only, not for the whole year. This is for students that want to return home on holidays.

There is no way a UK uni will burden its students with accommodation problems during their studies. They make it priority to make life easy for their students in UK. In some Unis with big campuses, they sometimes even provide free, frequent bus rides across each part of the campus. They look after their students.

However, you may decide to renew your lease at expiration, though it is not automatic as by that time freshers would be given more consideration compared to you who won't be considered a fresher anymore.

Good points, but this only applies after the first 12 months.

Hi Guys,

I am from India. Currently i have got offer from Robert gordon and University of SAlford.
Course : Oil and Gas, Petroleum Engineering
I am confused which one to join. Please help me !!!!

Based on the below mentioned points please recommend one of the universities:
1. Value of the degree
2. Job Opportunities (very important)
3. Ranking of the university
4. Facilities and Standard of education

Students who have studied from any one of these universities can share their experience!!!!

Please help me!!!!!
Re: Best School For Masters Degree In The UK? by Nobody: 5:58pm On May 27, 2011
SALFORD KE!!!! Run like your life depends on it.
Re: Best School For Masters Degree In The UK? by rooneyA: 6:01pm On May 27, 2011
Thanks!!!!

But can you please tell me on what basis are you suggesting SALFORD.

I need merits and demerits of both universites.
that would help me more !
Re: Best School For Masters Degree In The UK? by Nobody: 6:06pm On May 27, 2011
I meant run from Salford.

Salford cons

Not especially highly rated with no industrial affiliations of any sort to speak of.

Aberdeen

You can argue that there are schools better than RGU, but it has excellent industry links and is based in Aberdeen, the oil capital of Europe

If you are doing anything with Oil and Gas or Petroleum there is no point wasting time going through any merits or demerits between the 2.

RGU wins hands down.
Re: Best School For Masters Degree In The UK? by oludunamis(m): 11:12pm On May 28, 2011
Thought I'd add my few cents here, especially for those planning to study oil and gas related courses:

Imperial College remains the most recognised, however its tough to get into, very expensive as well, program very theorectical and very intense, if you dont have solid engr background, stay clear

Herriot Watt, in my opinion is as good as imperial, very reutable program, i place their program side by side with imperial

RGU, their course are very broad and not that intense in terms on theory, however they have close alignment with industry, dont be suprised that RGU has very employment rate, as high as the best univs in the UK (according to online stats) dont know why, all I know is most RGU grad get jobs

Stay clear of the following, Salford, London southbank, they are new programs and people dont quite trust them yet, beter not to waste your money

People study subsea engr at cranfield and Univ of Aberdeen, having been an ex subsea engr myself, i dont think the program is neccessary, maybe ok for people already practising in the industry, but certainly not for newbies


Dont focus on the UK only if you are looking into the oil sector, UK oil sector is fast dimisnishing, growth areas remain US, canada and Australia to name a few (ofcourse sensible countries where i think naija people may live to live and study)

Any questions regarding that industry, just hit me back
Re: Best School For Masters Degree In The UK? by abswale(m): 1:50am On May 29, 2011

Re: Best School For Masters Degree In The UK? by rooneyA: 7:43pm On May 29, 2011
Hi ,

I have heard the IELTS is required to get in RGU.
Can you please tell me the pointers for this exam.
1. If the course starts by sep , then by when should we write this exam.
2. Should this be written before VISA application and payment of College fees?


Please guide me!!!!
Thanks in advance
