True..ur comment is more of an encouragement... But the reality is what am asking about.. We know of the HND discrimination but....
When it comes to having a BSc from a less competitive school probably from the north ..despite having a 2.1 or better..can that person be looked down on compared to those from competitive schools...

I ask cuz I have heard of such and I don't know if it really a thing in the Nigerian society..
In engineering for example despite the fact that it almost same syllabus in all fed of state university... A 2.1 graduate from FUTO or FUTA might be preferred over a 2.1 or even first class from let say taraba state university or so...

As a job seeker or regular individual with a degree, have u ever been discriminated because of the kind of university you attended..or do u believe one can be discriminated not because of a CGPA or grade of degree but because of the kind of university he or she attended

With the huge competition in getting admitted to high ranked schools like UNILAG, UNN and the likes...

Are there a bit of disadvantage for students who end up switching to less competitive universities..

Am talking about schools like maybe Gombe state university to pursue probably a good course like pharmacy which they couldnt study in the high ranked schools and eventually come out with good results..

It depends on how you present yourself . I attended a state university by even PhD holders from so called federal university can't stand on the same podium with me . You need to know your onions and have self esteem. Don't ever think someone is better than you. A pharmacist students are been taught same curriculum nationwide

80% of the time, school wouldn't matter in a city like Lagos. Provided you are sound. Problem comes when their is a tie and someone needs to be "evicted". Unfortunately, you may be the one.

While the school you attended does not mean much, most schools bend standards-apologies to.... The kind of books I read in University of Benin that got me 2:1, if I had tried 60% of it in Usman Danfidio University my first class will be close to a perfect score. I have seen some of these schools examination questions.

Ultimately, try to be sound. If you are, you will likely not face such problem.

JohnSin97:
Quota system Universities aren't to be trusted. Once I see the university on application letters I dump it in the bin.

If it's not OAU, UNN, UniBen, Unilag, FUTO, FUTA, UI, Covenant, UniIlorin, Babcock and Yabatech please go and apply for tradermoni.



Lol.. Jim Ovia has B.Sc. degree in Business Administration from Southern University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA and not Auchi Poly. It's was Tony Elumelu that went to Ambrose Ali University (note that Ambrose Ali of the 80s had a very high educational standard, thanks to the man it was named after) but even Tony elemelu still went and got a Master's from Unilag and he hardly identifies as someone who went to AAU. My indices is the fact that when you look at this schools which I listed, it has and known to produce some of the smartest people in nigeria, if you even look at tech start-ups as an example that have gone national in the past 10years they usually come from this universities. Plus have you noticed that in top universities in the south you hardly see any northerner....most abokis won't cope in a school like oau, one year in Whitehouse and they'd drop out.

BOOOMNAIJA:
Well, all I can say is that if there's a job opening in nnpc, Exxon Mobile, agip and d likes, and a 3rd class geology graduate of oau applies for d job with his contemporaries with first class from other universities, that oau geology graduate would definitely av an upper hand and would be considered before d others

rosalieene:
Lowkey, banks like Access bank discriminate.

princewarri1985:
There is nothing like descrimination because of the kind of university one graduated from in Nigeria here, you are the problem here because you are suffereing from inferiority complex, because dont be suprised that a graduate from gombe state university will do better than a unn graduate during written interview, it's not about the university but the personality here

That's not true. Access Bank for instance discriminates against state universities except LASU and few other state universities.

PhD holders from public unis can't stand on same podium with you indeed!
Yet you can't differentiate between "being" and "been". You tenses too are wack!
Empty bragging!

Fundamentalist:


it's good I am not jobless like you.

Southerners are amongst the worst people to interact with.

Yes sir. Unlike people like us that sit, play video games all day (jobless us). You are so busy changing the world. I heard you are so busy partnering with Elon Musk for the pioneer rocket project at SpaceX. Bravo! Bravo!!

sofiscatedmoron:

I thought u we're joking untill i hear Gombe state university

That name alone is funny

Aurelius1:
This is someone who is boasting that he is better than most PhD holders.

edoairways:

Tony elemelu choose Unilag for master because of convenience not necessary because " it is the best"

Same South West that I am doing my second degree?
Thank God I came down to South West.
People say what they don't know or hear say.
I did my First Degree in a University of Technology at North. And is way rigorous.
I am topping my class at the moment.
Many of my friends have secured competitive scholarships in USA, UK, GERMANY and China etc.
