hi...am a final year medical student of the usmanu donfodiyo university and would be very pleased to answer all inquiries concerning udus/uduth sokoto and also correct some hilarious misinformation about udus and northern unis in general
admission into udus is mainly by merit and once u beat the stipulated cutoff for that year, you are 99.9% sure of gaining admission regardless of you state of origin( am from delta state and knew no one in sokoto wheen i was admitted and in my class alone, we have people from uyo, calabar, edo, kogi, imo, anambra and enugu and all other northern states whether catchment or not)..postume was(temporarily) suspended 2014 so that means the only criterion use is jamb..just score above cutoff and in addition be among the top two in your state
for the tuition fee, it ranges between 52 to 56k but u can check the udus website to get the accurate fees foe each level
some other info u need to know is that
1. sokoto as a state is relatively peaceful, more peaceful than almost all the southern state and as a matter of fact udus always brag about the popular nickname given to her as the " most peaceful university"
2. though the uni is very concerned about decent dressing, its important to remind u that it a federal uni and so all religious practices are practiced peacefully and freely...
3. the current HOD of physiology, pediatrics , surgery and so many other departmental top profs are all Christians so the notion that is a a religiously bias school should not be there
4. the scul just started her dentistry program
5. sokoto state has extremes of weather, when its harmattan its very cold nd when its hot, its really hot
wish all aspirants the best

Udusok do not conduct post utme but don't be surprised if they start from next year. Right now what you heard about them not conducting is very true.
Udus admission modality are numerous and not too straight. Many things are considered by the sch admission officers before offering one a slot. (Utme score, state of origin, gender, local govt, subject combo, olevels, being matric student etc)
To non catchment states just 1 or 2 or 3 students are admitted and they have to be the Highest from that state. So just aim to be the highest from your state that applied there. But 320+ should cut you off every competition. The highest I know who applied Udus this year had 320 and he's been admitted since before people like me got considered self.
For some catchment and ELD states like Kwara, Niger, Kogi etc even 300 in utme doesn't guarantee admission into Udus.
From MDCN, Udus enjoy a total of 100 as quota but the UG1 that just finished are 170+ (fresh and repeater) and those that just got admitted / considered seems to be moving towards that number.
Also NUC just approved Dentistry for Udus, some of my fellow aspirants with very high scores got moved to BDS. Sokoto is quite safe and Udus MBBS is also very smooth. Uduth also have a standing reputation.
All in all, Grace, Good Preparation and Choice matters.

You can go for that paid scholarship scheme
But it is mostly management courses, once you get the scholarship you will not be denied visa, they will grant you visa and you will not be paying school fees.

2 Turkey laps 0.6kg 2,000 naira (146 rubles)

Pork meat 0.6 kg 3,300 naira (236 rubles) Pork is actually pretty expensive. High demand I guess. Also from my last post some people were annoyed that I eat pork which is strange . 'beef' is a god in one country. Besides here in the cold, meat, especially pork is vital for survival.

Sea food (Mature Squid about four) 303 rubles (4,250 naira)

Total of about 9,500 Naira. However I paid only about 9,000 naira for these items because like I mentioned earlier, some stores offer discount for students if you carry your student Identification card with you.

You might be wondering if I only want to eat meat or why I don't buy other things. Well my church pastor who is obviously a Russian often sends us (African students) food items like rice, potatoes and spices so I hardly buy these items. Also we tend to buy potatoes collectively in large quantities during summer when it is even much cheaper.

Happy new year Nairalanders.

Shout-out to my Nairalanders of the year

Russia don't operate like that... Someone with third class will comfortably get a full scholarship... You can study biology in BSc and do arts in Masters... Nobody cares.. just have the requirements and work experience... You can defend why you want to switch from course A to course v and you are good to go...
