i think most of these values are wrong. i have a friend who studies international law in babcock and she told me it's #800,000 today. i wonder why 2million is there for law, even though they're slightly different i think it's not correct.

seribroo56: this mentality will not get you far. how did you knw jamb rejected them.. is there any stat to back up ur claims..

Please help me ask him. The ones jamb did not reject still end up going to Private University because of facilities they know they can not get from non-private Unis.

Abeg Let's be Objective.
For those that attend Public Universities trust me when I say you are all on scholarship. State and Federal Government subsidize your fees so much. If you know how much billions is spent on public unis you will know your platry school fees doesn't do anything more like a drop in an ocean.Secondly how do these public unis generate revenue internally ? By selling postume form for 5k and selling result card 5k to check ur result ? Education is expensive and because the Government foots most of the bill doesn't mean your education is worth what you pay as school fees.If government stops subsidizing public unis, even with their population some of their school fees will be higher than some private unis and the value for money will be lower.

Am still waiting to see a comment that will say something on the quality of graduates been churned out by the "so called private" universities by those who think and call the private universities advanced secondary school. Rather than argue with facts and constructive points, they only end up saying poos like church member tithes, this that this
Forgeting that the best schools in the world like Harvard is privately owned and one of the most expensive school.

Now talking about quality, lemme throw in a lil.

I graduated from a private university and served in kano, of course there will always be a time when we'll gist of how 'difficult every corps member school is' and when I tell them where I graduated from and how I made second class upper, most times, you find out that the ones who are quick to tell you your school is an advanced secondary school are the ones who graduated with 2.2 or even 3rd class.

I took it upon my self to test the waters of these (rather than go abroad for master) public schools for a masters degree to confirm if my cgpa of 3.93/5 in a private university was fluk, thus I enrolled in uniport immediately after service, today I have graduated with an msc degree with cgpa of 4.14/5, I and the course rep having the highest cgpa, and frm my dept, we were only 5 eligible to proceed to phd based on minimum requirement of 4point out of a class of 30,passing all courses @ one sitting.

Even better than what I made in a private univeristy.
So, let's argue with facts, not the little rantings of laymen with not constructive thinking aptitude.

Bros you can lie o, Harvard's school fees per year is just $51000, which will be about N8million.

How then can 'third rate' universities be 4mill/yr?

Bro, I don't know about University of Port-harcourt, but Post-graduate programmes and Undergraduate programme in all ramification are miles apart in a school like OAU.

I'm in my finals in OAU and I would not advise anyone school here. I'm serious.

You did not address a specific point anyway, however, intellectually I do not believe public school graduates are better than those from private schools but the grades (GP) I believe are. (I do not believe intellectual capacity can be measured by one's GP).

You see a lot of things causes lower grades in public universities. And try to explain by mentioning simple occurrences and experience: lecturers subtracting at least 15marks from our scores because we were too much that passed SSC 103 in 100level (and most of us ended up with B's); a lecturer not marking a students script and automatically giving him an 'F' (after so much confrontation he just changed to an 'E'); lecturers telling to your face that nobody will score above 40marks in an exam of a possible 60marks; in dept of Political science it is so bad they'd tell you the best student would get a B; in english from part 1, you already know a first class is impossible even if have the ability.

Note, I argued not on intellectual ability, facilities or quality of teaching, but on grade quantity.

@op, its a lie. The first licensed private university in Nigeria is Madonna university okija, licensed on 10th may 1999. Infact the founder was the first person that ever thought of opening a private university in Nigeria.

I don't get your point on gp or intellect. My point is if given the right environmnet, I am sure of my self anywhere, be it private or federal, uniport or oau. I hope u know that in msc, anything less than a c is fail, and the course is to be repeated, so even if a lecturer plans to shave marks, belive me, pple will still pass. I don't settle for less, the sky is not the limit but the starting point.

Get your facts right.


AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA (ABTI)

ABTI is the first Nigerian university with American structure and curriculum. It is in north eastern Nigeria, Yola, capital of Adamawa State. At ABTI, students pay as much as N1,378,500 to receive quality education. Parents, however, pay in dollars.

For tuition: $6,600 (N990,000), meals: $1,900 (285,000), four in a room: $500 (N75,000), private room: $1,900 – N285,000). In total, it amounts to N1,378,500 per annum.

Accommodation and feeding are taken care by the school.
