They can't graduate without accreditation


The best is for them to be transferred to other schools whose courses had been accredited,

Though they will have to forfeit a year

A typical reaction from a typical Nigerian. Can you try to imagine what will be the fate of such students should the graduate from departments that lack accreditation? I know someone with similar experience. He is not able to go for NYSC and who will employ him since his higher education has not been validated? It's is painful but that is the right thing to do in the students' best interest. Nigerians like you should stop eing driven by emotions and jumping into conclusions without properly understanding the prevailing circumstances. It's the hallmark of mental underdevelopement
so who will foot those students fees, are you the one? talk is cheap untill the fate of those students befall you, then you will understand.

The courses were not accredited. She doesn't do the accreditation, the NUC does. All the University does is to prepare you, assess you and certify you. If the certificate is not recognised then the Univeristy's work is null. She is merely stating the best course of action.

The problem emerged from the running of a non accredited course in the first place which is illegal. At least that was the standard back then in our time. It is taking a taxi that is unregistered. It may work well but when when you hit a checkpoint you may have to disembark and trek to your destination. Not your fault and certainly not the fault of the police but the driver the former VC who sold you and illegality.

Our security agencies will not arrest the former VC. He would continue to amass more wealth with his ill gotten wealth. No consequence whatsoever for ruining lives. The one after him will do the same and the next and the next and the next!

Which is why you should always ask questions, there are forums where these questions can be asked, even abroad you can't just apply for a course and sit in the comfort of your home doing nothing, get to know more about what you're heading into, I didn't do much research this year on the course I applied for because I didn't even care about admission anymore but now that I really want it I do some research.
My brother, maybe now.

When I wrote UTME was donkey years ago....then, you can be in Lagos and apply for UNIMAID ( my dream school after OAU). UTME will send your result via P.O.Box to your house direct. You will be contacted, you need not travel to the school.

Whom do you make the research from? Have you attempted reaching out to the Customer Care line or help desk of any Government Higher Institution? I mean via phone or mail?

Some of the staff in the school too, are after going in the morning and returning at night. As a student, sometimes you explore.

I was returning from Yenagoa last month, so we picked up a young lady at Rumuo... (not familiar with PH), who was heading back to school. She had graduated from a Fed Univ since 2018 and not been mobilised because the course wasn't accredited.

Now, she heard they were mobilising them and giving them a similar course, not that studied..so that they could head for NYSC.

Don't blame a 17/18-year-old Abuja-based kid who dreams of UNICAL.

I find it hard to understand why university authorities will start admitting undergraduates into courses that have not been accredited by the universities regulatory body.....this should be made a criminal offence to serve as deterrent.

This issue has been a reoccurring problem in our university administration and this is part of the obscure part of the autonomy these university Dons will not talk about because all they are after are avenues to make more monies not sparing thoughts about the consequences of their actions...just imagine what they are putting these young Nigerians through even before they venture out into the larger society.

Passing through 4_5 years in the Nigerian university system is hellish for many and the thought of having extra years for no fault of yours is better imagined.

Why will the former VC admit students for courses not accredited? And if the current VC allow them to graduate will their certificate be accepted ? And will the NYSC recognise them cos officially such courses started existing 2 years ago in that institution ,that is the questions we all need to ask not abusing the current VC .
they only have two options

They either obey the VC, go back to 200 level and hopefully graduated with certificate and get mobilized for nysc

Or

Get transferred to another school whose courses had full accreditation, but they will have to start from 300 level

The VC even like them that's why she gave them an offer, if she decides to keep mute and they graduate with no certificate and can't go for nysc that is when they will know wotsup

It is not possible for them to go back to 200L.
The students can only remain stagnant in their current levels until the departments are accredited before they graduate. I am speaking from experience
they can also be transferred to other schools with full accreditation, though they will have to start from 300 level


Being stagnant might not be the best option, who knows how long it will take for NUC to do the needful

Unical always had faculty of arts, these courses were accredited and covered by that faculty since the early 2000s, that woman is wicked.

Stay for you kitchen you no go free, see nepotism causes.

If her daughter was among those students will she make that crazy policy, there is a plot to destroy Unical off course maybe to promote a private varsity over there.

Asking them to go back to 200. level is wrong, they knew the courses were not accredited, why admit students to those dept? To make money abi.

. With due respect to women's world,at times when some of them head places they take arbitrary decision Why has your institution been offering unaccredited courses? It is against the law to offer unaccredited courses through JAMB and you want the students to go back to Part 2.Your school will be asked to pay billions of naira as damages for this inglorious decision. The solution is meet with the Senate and the council.and put in place what is necessary for the accreditation..

This can only happen in Nigeria.

In my own opinion I think the best idea is that the final year students should be distributed across other universities in Nigeria that has fine and Applied art accreditation. Just that their certificate might bear the new institutions name and they might have to go back a year compared to two years.

I could remember years back at Uni we have some final year engineering students from Uniabuja that has this accreditation problem too. Their school distributed them across other Universities in Nigeria. Just that they have to go back a year

Looking at it from your angle, that means the decision of the VC isn't absurd then. I no sure say the students wan go back even one year...

You people should just use the University.

They must return the money spend for the duration of those sessions. They'll also compensate for your time, efforts and psychological trauma.
