A Few Private Universities Are Cheaper And Better Than Some Federal Universities by Kei144(m): 12:28pm On Oct 09, 2016 |
Some parents who have wards in both Federal and Private universities are of the opinion that a few private universities are cheaper and of higher quality than some Federal universities. One particular parent who has a child in UNIZIK and another child in Paul University Awka said that he prefers the private university. He said that in the Federal university, he has to rent off-campus accommodation at very high price. Also in the federal university, he has to pay for transportation, faculty, department and SUG levies; he also pays for handouts and other incidental charges. Of course he has to pay for electricity, water, etc. In the example private university cited above, he only pays a total of nearly 300,000 naira persession, that could be in two semester installments, and that takes care of everything. Accommodation is included. No transportation cost. Handout is banned. No other levies whatsoever. And there is security and zero cultism. In addition, the private university has a number of high-profile academic staff, some of whom retired from some notable Federal universities, public parastatals and industries. What do you think about this comparison? 1 Like 1 Share

True to some extent, in fact I heard about a university in osun state that gives part-scholarship to students who maintain 3.0 GPA. I heard that with the scholarship, the fee is less than 300,000 while full payment is sligtly more than that. 9 Likes |

The general thinking is that all private universities are too expensive. The reality now seems to be that if we get down to really count the cost, some private universities are actually better in terms of both cost and quality. Lecturers in public universities are generally overlords, who do whatever they want with students. In private universities, lecturers are more humble, being limited by the university management. 16 Likes 1 Share |

The truth of the matter is that the student in UNIZIK might not have been honest with the mother. Have we forgotten how students pad these levies to get money from their parents? Who knows how much s/he demands for faculty, department and co levies. No matter what federal universities are way cheaper than those unknown private universities. 7 Likes |

Cordis92: Paul University is definitely cheaper than UNIZIK. Paul University is also way better than UNIZIK in terms of quality.; talk of cheating in exams, sorting, female students harrasment, etc. People should not be deceiving themselves with the idea of "known universities" or "unknown universities"; employers do not assess graduates based on how well-known or not their alma mater is, they rather interview the graduates and give them aptitude test. Universities (foreign and local) also do not admit candidates into their postgraduate schools based on where they graduated from, but from various assessments. The first set of Paul University graduates finished NYSC in 2015; already several of them are doing their Masters programmes in a number of federal universities. I know a Tansian University graduate who performed excellently in GRE and TOEFEL, and is now completing her masters programme in the USA. I also know UNIZIK graduates that couldn't gain admission in USA university due to GRE and TOEFEL. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Is Crawford University Among? Anyway it is certain privately run ventures are always managed better than large white elephant Federal or State Government Parastatals, reason is Personnel and manpower are better administered. But a problem of the privately held companies is the overzealous never ending lust for profit. E.g. the Banks. 1 Like 1 Share |
