Op if I were your supervisor and this was your project. My first word on your paper will be "nonsense".

Infact eh my red pen will finish before am through with your work.

How can you tell us that accomodation in hostel is more costly than school.

As a matter of fact accomodation off campus is 5x accomodation in school.. At best its 3x.

If you attended UNIVERSITY OF CALABAR .
,you must know a place called malabor(male And female hostel)..

I had the most interesting period in my life during my stay in the Malabor

Free light/almost 18 hours of light each day,proximity to classes(after some long lectures I will rush to my room to shower), low cost of living, security and access to information..


Some folks were talking about privacy everything depends on how you relate with your room mates cos my lady used to visit me often..

You END up with better social skills...
Thumbs up. I did not only spend my 4 years in malabor as a malabite, i spent those years in the capital that is hall 4. It was so bad thay when i was accommodated in the more convenient and posh hall 2 in the main campus, i swapped and came back to hall 4. I had fun, socialized and still came out with a 2.1. Hostel is the ultimate for me anyday anytime.

Anyways, yes accommodation in the school is pricey. Do the math.

As an undergraduate, it's fair to say that off campus hostel is better than the school owned hostel. Below are some of the reasons why.

CHOICE IS LIMITED
In the school hostel, you don't have the luxury of picking from a variety of choices. Its just a room where you are stuffed with eight people. Off campus, you can choose if you'll like a room, a self contain, 2 bed room flat etc.

RULES AND REGULATIONS
The.school hostel has a long list of ridiculous Rules and regulations you have to follow which mainly consists of "don'ts". Off campus on the other hand, you don't necessarily have to listen to anyone. Nobody tells you what do.

PRIVACY
It's glaring that you simply don't have "Me-time" in the school hostel. You put.your pen on the bed, you meet it on the floor. Your belongings also goes missing from time to time. staying off campus affords you that privacy. Nobody disturbs you. If you like sleep naked on the bed.
PRICE
The amount charges by schools is simply ridiculous. You pay tens of thousands of Naira to stay in a room with eight other guys. Off campus accommodation is relatively cheaper.

VISITORS
In a typical school hostel, you friends can't visit you in your room. if i hear say bae visits you. In some schools e.g. unilorin, you might even be fined or get thrown out of the hostel.
Off campus accommodation affords you that. You friends, girlfriends, can visit you anytime, anyday.

Staying off campus is one of the best decision of my life. You live life to the fullest.

I don't subscribe to d price option. Schl hostels r relatively cheaper

Mate, you school in unilag? Are you really sure you are a unilag student? How about you take punctuation classes?

Why do people keep saying this?
I'll address this once.
Let's say you get an hostel in the school for 30k, multiply it by 8 other students you'll be staying with. How much do you pay for accommodation off campus?

Ehhhhhm...my school, UNILAG, has 13 good hostels. 7 hostels for the female students and 6 hostels for the male students and each hostel is a 3-storey building. We don't queue up to use the restrooms but the problem is that the hostels are not enough to accomodate all the students. Also, among those who are lucky to be given bed spaces are some wild students who just mess up sometimes and they brush from the windows in some hostels. Though the cleaners are always trying their best possible to keep the hostels clean. But then, I prefer staying on campus. It's fun fun fun all the way, U get to class on time, you can easily use the school library at ur convenience etc. That's my hostel, saburi Biobaku Hall...
Mehn! I so much like dat your hostel, i can get 2 d ground 4rm the 3rd floor, within a twinkle of an eye.

Is the full stop necessary after a question mark?

I was in hall 6,then I moved to hall 5 in my 3rd year till final year.
eventhore I had an room offcamp at goldie off orok orok.. I was mostly in malabo cos of constant light..

hall 5 was cool cos the AO was not very strict,and he was my.town man...

staying in malabo was a wonderful.experience some day I will write a book about it..

I stay in the hostel...And we are just four in a spacious room divided into Four corners...There is a hell lot of privacy and no one steals in the room where i am...Also,asper the rules and regulations,guys do break dem wella and even the hostel porters are aware...The ish of girlfrnds,the visitation time makes sense but again,babes do sleep over grin...And the hostel fee is less dan 20k...
Kitchennette,Constant electricity,Constant supply of water etc
So gimme a reason why ano go stay hostel till i grad.
