University nursing is a five year course and u would be awarded a Bachelor in Nursing Science (BNSc) degree, while school of nursing is a 3 year course and u get a Registered Nurse RN/RNM kind of like a diploma. in the nursing hierarchy BNSc is higher than RN.
As for specialty after BNSc, u can go for your masters in any specialty while with RN u go for a 12-18 month post basic in any of the nursing specialty. hope this helps.

Nursing in the University is better and cheaper in terms of tuition fee.
Try federal universities and you won't pay much unlike the school of Nursing that you will pay #250k and above per session

The op wants you to tow the line of Poly is better than uni, school of Nursing does more practical than Uni.


But as you rightly said, the professional proficiency depends on each individual.

You are not totally wrong or right.

I’m universities, you get the professional certificate (RN after you must have passed the exam) and you can also do some others professional exams (RM, RPHN, depends on your school and your choice) and also get a university degree (BNSc) but in schools of nursing, you only get a professional certificate (RN)

There’s nothing like preferable
Nursing in the university beats nursing in SON by far.
People in SON still come back to do BNSc. So use that as a yardstick

The only reason I will ask you to go to SON is if you are already old or you cannot enter into the university.

But then SON is good too incase you want to chill in UK

Lol so nursing school is the best but you still need to enter university with the nursing school certificate before you are recognized. lol
Point of correction when you enter university with nursing school you will start at 200level nor 300..

The only advantage nursing school have over BNSc is working experience which they get while studying and also after school because it’s just two years so that’s why it’s easier to enter uk for SON grass’s.

In as much as I quite align with your views, you are wrong in the year when Nursing Degree commenced in Nigeria.


For UNN I know it's been more than four decades and counting.
