Nobody gives third class degree holder employment these days and nobody admits 3rd class for masters degree directly. Go for PGD first and go and establish a trade..

Even if you do PHD the highest you can get in Nigeria is Night shift supervisor in an Hotel in Lagos...

Salary 30k tops, excludes benefits like health,house but may be you can get allowance on Transport 200 naira per day x 30 days 6k so you should get up to 40k per month max!

Pgd is 18months I think. As per the amount, I have no idea
Bro, pgd isn't 18months oh, before you get frustrated along the line. Federal university of technology minna is one of the cheapest and fastest schools to do any postgraduate program. I finished my master program last year there, and you know what? The PGD students I started the program with in 2015/2016 session graduated with me. That's almost three years. They will tell you 18months. Enter first and see for yourself. No be naija uni again

You want to do "Mas What"? Mass Murder ? after you shamefully ran out with a third class.

You want to go there and invent an "inconclusive" class of award?

My brother avoid the four walls of a university for now

My best advise for u is to do a conversion program in order to upgrade ur Degree from third class into something higher than that. it only takes u just 2 years. Bsc pass into Bsc Higher eg first class or second class then u can later upgrade to master[b]My best advise for u is to do a conversion program in order to upgrade ur Degree from third class into something higher than that. it only takes u just 2 years.

Anyways yes, u can do an Msc if u make up your mind and are determined to. Its all in the mind bro.

Of course you can do Masters but there's need for you to do PGD before you can be enrolled for Masters.

are you OK, a third class means you barely got 50% in all your modules, in other words you struggled. How then can you can you do or cope with the advanced stage of the course.

If you decide to do your masters in your first degree university. You could stand a chance if your third class is just few points to second class and you can get in touch with your HoD incase there is any special waver but if in another school it's straight pdg first.
