bros olastep ansa oo
yeap. Its possible. Infact, Philosophy and Law do share some courses ds 1st yr. I remember, a law friend was reading Phi 101 during tests n exams last semester. But u can only cross/transfer the third semester(2nd yr).

papindinho: Oga Ola stairs well done boss. God bless you too and help you in ur dealings o.
amen o o. I need prayers also o

My question is still on requirement stuffs o.
1* It was spelt out that GEOGRAPHY is required to study Pub admin but what if one does not have Geography?
SSCE or JAMB? If it SSCE, i think its compulsory o esp to those in fac of Social sciences and Administration

2* In a situation whereby one secured admission in to studdy Local Govt Studies, can he cross to Public admin in 200L as they are in the same faculty?
it do happens. Intrafaculty transfer is easier and faster than Interfaculty transfer. I heard the story of one guy who wanted to cross from Zoology to Medicine. Zoology dept has released him, yet Medicine hasnt accepted him. His name was neither here or there.

3* In addition to (2) above, what are the requirements one must meet before he can cross to another course within the same faculty?
a good GP will determine that. Nothing else

4* In addition to (3) is the O'level going to be part of the requirement again?
NO. Thats why why most of our courses irrespective of ur faculty are the same in the 1st year

#Thanks for usual understanding boss. God bless YOU.
God Bless You Too

lol... I was just like you. Sincerly, you're right. I'm giving my own token to assist whosoever in need.

The fact is simple, once the strike is over; i will be AWOL.

I dont ask of favours. Neither do i ask of money from anyone. Neither am i 'workless'!.

Even, the minutes i use to type all these, i used it to relax; i deserve it.

I have recieved alot of messages on 2go n fb especialy and i tried to answer every inquiry.

Some people think OAU is their father's land and they can just drive into the VC office about any admission issue.

Sorry if i disappoint you. Nobody is allowed to enter any verification centre except the students. Infact, we did shake including me, when i came forward.

U think OAU be beans....
Remember, the position u're fighting for; hundreds of candidates are fighting for it. OAU admission is not automatic... Its tough

That's the bitter pill.

Goodluck guys

Numba 5 means if u dnt ve Your Birth Certificate from the Hospital one can use Declaration of Age from any High Court in Nigeria, sebi?
Getting f9 in yoruba depends on ur course. As i said earlier, i av roommates who are in Dramatic Arts and they do say credit in yoruba is required.

Your Certificate of Origin is compulsory. Either from ur LG or state laison office in Lagos.

Its either Birth certificate or Declaration of Age. You can only present one. I had both but was asked to drop one... Generally, same also applies

Ghydyon: oga ola,one question dat kips bothering me is d issue of waec result.must it b d original result 4rm school/waec or d online print out result nd 2ndly, is testimonial mandated?
get your original result from ur school but it wont be asked.
It's the Online Printout u'l present. It must be very clear and bold. Otherwise, you'l be asked to print another. The reason is because, you'l be asked to photocopy all the Originals into about 5 copies. So, they'l want to check the Originals bold and clear to avoid falsification.
No Testimonial is required. Though i had mine but it was not asked. Same applies to all freshers.
EducationRe: 2013/2014 Obafemi Awolowo University ::ASPIRANTS:: by Olastep1(m): 5:23pm On Aug 27, 2013
Before i gist you about Academics in OAU's perspective, lets discuss about freshers verification....

Am telling you now cos its stil fresh in my memory though i just downloaded it from my medulla oblongata...



I pains my heart the day my friend was 'deported' from his choice course to another course.

And apart from that, i witnessed one in my faculty and heard about five cases of students who are somehow related to me i.e friend's friend.

I'm telling you early enough to help you know what you're doing... Infact, you'll be lucky enough if you arent denied the admission.

Please and please, i'm going to list the major requirements. I may not go into detail for now. If you're stil sleeping, browsing and waiting for the admission lists/letter. Its good but please, find something to do about the requirements.

Dont feel that the professor your dad knows will help you do that#


Inshort,

1). Your SSCE result whether WAEC or NECO at not more than two [2] sittings. Mind you, OAU does not accept NABTEB results. It should contain the credit passes (A1, B2, B3, C4, C5, C6) only in the necessary subjects. You can mix WAEC and NECO results. It's allowed. I dont need to remind you that English and Mathematics is needed except you want to study Traditional Medicine (Herbalist). And Chemistry, Physics and Biology for any science student.

2). Your Jamb and Post-Jamb results slip.

3). Your OAU Admission Slip which will be made available to you later on.

4) Your Certificate of Origin. It must be from the Local Govt you wrote in Jamb registration. It must be signed and stamped. You'l present the Original during your verification.

5). Your Birth Certificate from the Hospital OR Declaration of Age from any High Court in Nigeria. It may not necessary be from your Local Govt.

6). More than 30 passport photograph. Dont worry, it's less costly in school. So, you can wait til then.

7). Your Jamb Admission Letter. I intentionally put it as the last because its not that necessary. The reason is because your OAU admission letter may not be on Jamb website during the period of verification. But you'l be asked though.


Hmmmmm.


Ask any question now. Feel free. Or else, we move to Academics....lol

EducationFG Breaks-Off ASUU Negotiation, To Introduce Student Loans by Olastep1(op):
The Nigerian Government has decided to break off negotiation with the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) over what it called the infiltration of the union by the opposition to discredit the government.

SaharaReporters gathered that as the committee set up by the Nigerian government to negotiate with the union gave a verdict of non-compromise on the part of the union and 'security report' of the infiltration of the opposition, it decided to break the negotiation.

It was revealed that the committee had reported to the government that the union had remained 'rigid and unbending' to suggestions on how to agree on some of the issues it was agitating for so as to end the strike which had entered its ninth week.

The committee had told the government that the union leaders were arrogant and selfish as their interest was paramount to that of their students who had been at home all this while.

The government after the report told the committee members that it had fresh security report that the union's stance on the lingering crisis in the education sector was as a result of the opposition's infiltration into the union.

It said the opposition wants to portray the government as irrational and uncaring to the plight of the lecturers and their students as well as present the government in bad light to Nigerians and the international community.

The government in breaking the negotiation has decided to fund individual student's education as it is done in advanced countries.

As a way of making nonsense of the industrial action by ASUU, SaharaReporters gathered that the government plans to introduce loans to the students throughout their period in the university so as to cushion the effect of the financial hardship on the students.

The government expects the students to re-pay the loans after graduation provided they get jobs of their choice. It however could not be ascertained how the loan to the students would compel the lecturers to call off the strike.

The National President of ASUU, Dr. Nasir Fagee, had last week during a press conference at the University of Lagos, Nigeria said the union had pulled out of the negotiation between the union and the Nigerian government citing insincerity as reason for its decision, adding that the union would not call off its strike until the agreement the government signed with the union in 2009 is honoured.
