Pearl1212: The dicotmy between degree and Bsc had been void by law, recently. But if you must pursue higher education go for master's. But first do you have a skill? And what career do you plan to build in? |

You don't understand what you have and the body language of most employers if there are jobs, it is about what you can do, your ability, your value, really the certificates is not the issue, employers requires the two but exams are most time set, that is when HND guys reap the benefits, cos they are more grounded practically and not with incessant ASUU strike that makes them Chun out half baked graduates. Instead of waisting the years for Bsc, go for PGD, then Masters, upgrade and acquire IT knowledge, then you will be an authority. Get exposed to freelancing, there are jobs online, get mentorship, you will do well on so many jobs platforms like Fiverr, Upwork, and a host of others. No jobs around in Nigeria. Another option is think and identify what you love to do best, build on it, start little and with prayer, see what God will do for you, you will forget employment/HND/BSC, rather you will be an employer of HND/BSC, who is trying to lose focus hoping on jobs that are not there. Again, if you are not cool with all the suggestions, going for Bsc will not kill you either, at least you will be at peace with yourself over the vacuum you feel the lack of degree has in you, since you are still young, except that your 3yrs in the university may end up 6yrs, as ASUU will ensure it is so. 1 Like |

lomprico: Yes, you can do. But post graduate diploma is still a diploma. Lack of Bsc will always come to haunt you as policy cannot even equate HND and Bsc. Their will always be disparity. |

Pearl1212:Let me start by congratulating you for graduating with distinction. Secondly, it is good that you are setting sight on progressing academically. there are two side to your future; studying in Nigeria or abroad. if you intend to study in Nigeria then go for a Bsc dont consider PGD, it will hunt you later in the future. But if you intend to study abroad then you can write GRE and apply to any university in the USA, that will guarantee you straignt admission for Msc. I also did HND and currently on PhD. the choice is yours. 2 Likes |

guy learn programming and switch to data science you can never go wrong on it, if you can work on it you can get a job that can help you relocate a better country where you can do msc. you don't need pgd to do msc with ur hnd in US. just seek for the best because you deserve it. with maths or statistics + data science you will be hot cake. doing an abroad Masters is the best thing that can happen to you because you will see relevant and specific courses to choose from. |

Nobody care abt your degree, what they want is to get the job done. Fine!! But if you have the opportunity to work in an organization whether private & government believe me the salary will not be the same. The Bsc degree will always earn more than the HND even if they do the same task, the HND will always play second fider to the Bsc. This is abt the money, thats d Koko. 1 Like |

My advice Go for PGD in Economics and do your Masters afterwards. Three years is enough for both programs. And you will be a Mastets holder in Economics. Great course I must say |

My advice. The fact that you graduated with Distinction shows how academically sound you're. I will urge you to find ANY recognized University private or public that offers DIRECT ENTRY to 300 Level of a four-year program at BSc. I get the argument of your self esteem some people are making but my brother/sister. It may take an extra one semester but your chances are LIMITLESS afterwards once you have BSc.. And if you work at it you're likely to graduate with a FIRST CLASS. I don't want to start telling you your roadblocks with compiling HND, Pgd, MSc. Save yourself the stress. I have HND, Pgd, and also BSc(UK degree) and I know why I had to advice you on this. LEADS University in Ibadan is a good example and many of the UK Universities allows you to enrol into their 300 Level (final year) called Top-up degree with honors 2 Likes |

You can go for your post graduate diploma then move for your masters later. Meanwhile you can now monitor your health just from your wrist with the Oraimo Smart Watch.

HND/Bsc conversion programme is purely design by NUC for HND holder to upgrade to Degree programme. Is just two years programme. ( In fact, it's not a full time programme, mostly Friday/Saturday, (twice in a month). School like Kwara state university, LAUTH Ogbomoso, Almost all private universities in south are doing it. As you study statistics in your HND, you are allow to change to either Computer Science, Mathematics. It's so flexible, school fees is avoidable. Well, i did mine, at Joseph Ayo Babalola University, ikeji Arakeji Osun state. It is very interesting. The school fees is so flexible, you pay as you love. ( I spent just one year, seven months). I know uniport also doing it. You can tell me where you based, i will guide to the best university nearby. quote author=Pearl1212 post=113312713] I will like to be enlightened on this. Thanks. quote author=Smartwave post=113312349]. Go for HND/Bsc conversion programme. Is just two years programme. Mostly, weekend ( Fri and sat.) . If you need more light?? Let mr know. Don't try PGD, it will only waste your time and money.[/quote] |

ksjmode: Wish I can give you a million likes. You said it all. First degree will always matter whether you have pgd or masters in admission. I work in HR and I know why I am saying so. On the field of work, recruiters will specify, first degree! Few accept HND. But with BSc conversion, you become limitless. How many HND get scholarship positions, even in addition to your pgd and masters. 1 Like |
