Going Back To Finish 9 Years After by Germanhunter(m): 7:07pm On Nov 08, 2021
Hello everyone,
I have a sincere question to ask please and I will explain as much as I can to get the best response
I gained admission in 2008
I was a 16 year old boy and really I didn’t know what was at stake
Graduating at 20 was the aim but I lost track and as at 2012 I was still not close to graduating
I felt I had time
I did 3 years(2015) more extras trying to get all courses done even if it’s third class I no mind
But I didn’t eventually get it done..I was more than frustrated
Now it’s 2021 and am thinking out loud
Can I still go back to finish it or would the admission be already declined by now ?
No abuse me oo abeg

we're in the same category, same age and same date of admission, couldn't also graduate in 2012 too as my mates all served then.
the stigma was too much so had to go back and now I'm trying to finish up and I just clocked 29.
Just meet your Course adviser/exams officer and It would be worked out but with money oh

Why don't you buy a JAMB form and start afresh with a new GP and mindset? Hustle it out and make a better result. You are still very young. There are so many Jambites that are way older than you.

Anoda 4 years of hard labor ?
I really don’t mind any form of gp
Even a pass would do just fine for me right now
I just want to know if after all this years I can still get it finished

you'll get the certificate but it would show as recent date of graduation, and your fiance sees that would know you were lying

Exactly. What makes him thinks he can write all the carryovers in one year? It may even take him 2-3 to pass all the courses and still come out with a poor grade.

Yes sure I did
I run a laundry service now and was planning on diversifying to native wears
As per skill
I learnt how to drive perfectly
Underrated but a skill tho’
Hopefully I get to learn truck driving too or any big machinery

I had a classmate who left when we were in 4th year. Man has graduated while some of my classmates are still writing carryovers, hoping to graduate with 3rd class
still writing carryovers for how many years since their set graduated
