Does it really work?

Bro, it works perfectly. Some years ago, my colleague at work place decided to give it a trial. He applied for the transcript to be sent to him using our work place as address. He chose DHL from several mail options available as delivery agency. He used his credit card and was debited. Same day, he received a call, "Good afternoon, am I on to Mr. .... I am calling from UNN transcript office. Please, we have a little challenge on locating your file. Hence, the need for this call. What year did you graduate?"

Three days time, na so DHL man brought the transcript to the young man. The young man and I was like "See UNN don turn obodo oyibo school o. So something can work in this country. Very stress free with only N10,000 for local"

bnt:
The worst school in Nigeria in terms of transcript preparation is Benue State University, Makurdi

That one na school?

School where result can be issued to students even with 50 carry overs. With money, all carry overs from year one to final year can be cancelled in one day and result issued.


BSU is the biggest scam of all glorified secondary school. God forbid!

Maybe the writer applied very late cos we graduated the same year, and I have received my transcript same with my guys.

The 2018 graduates of the Federal University Oye Ekiti are set to protest failure of the university management to issue them transcripts more than a year after graduation.

The document is a copy of a student’s permanent academic record, which usually means all courses taken and all grades received by a student from the first day of school to the final semester.

Our correspondent gathered that efforts made by the graduates to get their transcripts have been neglected by authority on several occasions.

Speaking with out reporter in anonymity, a graduate of Microbiology said the delay resulted in the forfeiture of a scholarship for his Masters programme abroad, an opportunity many graduates seek.

“I have applied for my transcript for over a year and three weeks now. I applied on the 14th of April, 2018 after paying the sum of N10000. I was awarded a scholarship outside the country and I needed my transcript to register. Because the transcript was not released and has still not been released, I had to forfeit the scholarship. I now need it direly to register for my Masters program here in Nigeria and it has still not been released.”

A source in the university told this newspaper that “the school has not issued certificates yet. Certificates should be awarded during the convocation ceremony but statement of result which should last for two years was issued in place of the certificate. There is no news of a convocation holding anytime soon though there are two sets on ground waiting to be convoked”, he lamented.

Another graduate of Theatre and Media Arts who chose anonymosity for the fear of victimization said, “I wrote my final paper in 2017, I did my final project defense in 2017, the session ended in October, 2017. My statement of result says January, 2018. Why?”

“We have not been convoked. Without convocation, there is no certificate. Some recently applied for letters of attestation and they have not gotten it till now.”

He further said, “While some schools give out transcripts for free or require a token of N3000, we are required to pay N10000 for local transfer and N5000 for a student’s copy. Those who want to further their education outside the country have to pay N50000 for the transcript.

“I need my transcript to register for my Masters program which will close at the end of the week. I applied for my transcript in March, paid the required sum for it and have still not gotten it.

“I woke up on Monday morning and prepared to go to school only to hear that the students are protesting and the gates are closed. What is the hope of getting the said transcript before the end of the week when the registration ends? What happens to the N16,100 I used in procuring the Masters form. What do I do next?”

He said that the school is being unfair to the students. Those who want to move on cannot move on after graduating with good grades. He said some of them have been going and coming for months just to get the transcripts.

“Some got scholarships abroad but it got terminated when they were not able to provide transcripts. Some have money to further their studies abroad but they can’t because they have no transcripts. Some of us who are trying to further our education here can’t do that after almost two years because we lack transcripts. It’s quite disheartening and sad.

PLO Lumumba said: “The people with ideas have no power and the people with power have no ideas.’ That is very true. Not everything requires protests. They should know what they should do without being chased about for it.”

A two weeks break has been suggested by the school management and the school is expected to resume back on the 14th of May if the suggestion is accepted. The aggreived graduates have threatened to embark on a protest of their own if nothing is done to address their issue before the school decides on a break.

Speaking with Godfrey Bakji, the school’s PRO, he said, “You may recall that the three month strike of ASUU caused a serious set back to a lot of academic calendars aside from peculiar internal issues. The institution barely submitted the list for NYSC enrollment.

The institution is working hard to ensure that such demands and others are met within the shortest possible time. FUOYE however regrets all the inconveniences occasioned by this unintentional delay.

So you and your guys did not estimate the percentage of those that have not gotten theirs?
Some guys have applied since mid last year, yet no outcome..Even I have gotten mine but I can tell you things are not the way it suppose to be in Nigeria Educational System

This is the core reason you will never see a Nigerian university advertising itself for international patronage, he problem is that they are so disorganized that to get your records (which they generated by themselves) will take long with all the going from one department to the other to scavenge your dismembered records. If they see a letter from a lawyer they will respond faster.

My dear this is not true, in my own case I served OOU three different letters from a lawyer with seal till now nothing is coming forth 2years4days ago.

You can imagine, this issue of getting your academic records keeps getting worse. As I speak a close relative of mine is still battling it out with U.I

I read your story. It's really so sad and too painful.
I also graduated from OOU, and they told me then in 2008 that I had 13 carry overs...just because they wanted to make me feel bad and go for an extra year when I didn't fail a single paper. (that was their trick).

I later went back in 2010 with my parent who was already thinking I was dishonest and was looking for a way to scam them, because they were confused about why I hadn't finished since 2007.

So, when my Dad eventually agreed to go with me, I saw something very strange that very day we had a breakthrough, because we had been going day after day. I noticed that a room was opened and it seemed to me that they were falsifying results one by one because they had lost all their records for a period.
(I later got to know many of them were sacked, maybe they destroyed the records as a revenge)

So, I chose to look through since my father was around, I knew they would not refuse my father's grey hair. I found a whole 11 results that day alone!!!
But when I saw the grades, I knew I would not be getting a 2nd Class Upper anymore.

It was one of mixed feelings, I was both sad and happy for different reasons. That year, I got out, got posting for NYSC, and immediately after, I got a stable government job and my life began to have a meaningful direction.

Today, I am married and fruitful.
I'm sharing this here so that, people can see and realize how important these documents are to people's destiny. I pray that God will visit you and fight your battle, because I am close to shedding tears as I type right now. I know the pain, the agony and how much it hurts, but people won't understand.
Pls be strong. Bless.

Ndipe:
Took me three years to gwt my transcript from Uniuyo.

What!

Ndipe:
Yup. My mom requested for my transcript on my behalf and she told me they mailed it. Never received it until years later when I visitd Naija and dropped by Uniuyo to request of my transcript. They told me to pay Five hundred Naira which I did at the Bursary office. When I came back to their office, I presented my receipt as proof of payment. Satisfied, one of the typist sat down and began typing it. Then one of her colleagues aleryed her that she should check the drawer, that it might be there. They open the drawer and there was my transcript sealed in an envelope waiting for someone to mail it out. It had been lying in the drawer for how long? Three or for years? I went back to the burary office to get back my money but the bursar refunded 450 Naira and withheld 50 Naira, because he said it wasnt his fault, that I should blame the registration department. I was in no mood to argue with him, so I left.

Na wa oh!
