When you carry 20L of water b4 carrying 20L of palm oil you will realize the difference.

At last someone with the use of her brain has spoken.

That op is so dumb. The NOUN is meant for working class and not children who should experience class teachings. I have never seen a school who's credible as the NOUN. An institution where you reap what you sow. I can swear to you that all conventional universities engage in malpractices from the classroom to exam. Ur problem is that we do not value what we have, always criticizing our efforts. Countries like the UK, USA, SA, India etc has open universities. For that op, NOUN is "work and learn".

Buuuaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh. We call this counter affidavit in the law court.

SlimBrawnie:
I couldn't help but counter the opinion and not facts of the thread[b] https://www.nairaland.com/2496607/disadvantages-national-open-university-nigeria[/b] that appeared on FP earlier on(Dont know why the op is so pained)I finished from a conventional university and presently pursing an LL.B program in NOUN. Contrary to what the op posted which is quite defamatory, I will like to clearly state here that despite its challenges, NOUN is the best university for those who are ready to WORK & LEARN. University of South Africa(UNISA) is an open university and same applies to many universities in the UK and US.


Here are the advantages of attending NOUN:
1. Her students are not barred from the compulsory NYSC scheme, rather, they are given exemption letters from NYSC since most of her students are either over 30years of age or must have served during his/her 1st degree.



2. B.SC Nursing has been given interim accreditation.


3. NOUN study centers are well equipped unless you are talking about the tutorial centers which are two different things entirely.

4. Less employed?? Nah.... I want to believe that there is hardly any organisation you step into that you won't find a NOUN student. So what employment are you talking about again?


5, Are students of conventional universities paid the stipulated sum after IT? NOUN students don't even need it when they already earn better.


6. Attending lectures is your choice. There are tutorial centers across and the school recently made a law that for you to lecture at the tutorial center, you must have a minimum of Masters so tell me, who are they lecturing?? Monkeys?? Also, the course materials are right there on the website, if you can't get the hard copy from the school, download it and print out. Besides you pay for course registration and not course materials.


7. Destitute, Smokers and Prostitutes?? I was a student of ABSU(A Proud Ikengress) and I think NOUN is far better when it comes to social vices in Higher Institutions.


8. NOUN students are not researchers? There is what we call DIY (Do It Yourself) and NOUN students apply it so well. NOUN supervisors are from conventional universities and what applies there, applies in NOUN too.


9. TMA and exams in year 1&2 are just honeymoon period for her students. I think you should checkout her year3 & above students.


10. Yes, NOUN is
not in the list because it has not been
included in Nigerian University Ranking
YET.


11. Student Union doest exist, yes, but there are associations that represent the interest of each department.


Like someone once said

...you come in as a nobody but graduate as a
somebody.
-probably as a computer illiterate but graduate
with vast knowledge of the computer.
-there is no bribing in the University.
-no short cut to pass.
-there is very low room or zero tolerance for
examination malpractice.
-there is no room for laziness.
-no time to waste.
-no strike to waste our precious life.
-relatively cheap.
-Access to all Federal/ State and cooperate
body scholarship
-no room for awaiting result/statement of
result but graduate and get your certificate/
Degree immediately.
- all courses accredited by NUC (confirmed)
*many frustrated Nigerian students are now
hopeful for higher education.

Your success depends mostly on you, it is
meant for students who can study and read on
their own.
Thank You

You should be more concerned bro. So nobody told b4 now that the Council for Legal Education does not accept students frm NOUN. Govt cannot even prevail on them cos they're independent.

I was downloading this new p0rn made by Paris Hinton some minutes ago and network was really slow. when I suddenly noticed my stomach growling like crazy. I quickly set my phone down and made my way to the kitchen to slice and cook as it was pretty obvious I was hungry.
After setting the yam on the stove, I jumped on my bed only to notice the movie had finished downloading. I started playing the movie and I gotta admit the sex scenes were really great and didn't know when my hands made way into my pants.


My blockos is itching me like crazy now, I feel like dying,.... . Guys what can I do to stop this.?

Grow up. . . Sorry that's impossible.
Grow a brain. I know i am asking too much, but try.

This sounds like a mature thread not like that one by that stray nini

...I took a bold step to stop watching porn and I know you can do it too..porn is a sin it devalues you,makes you feel worthless...just give it up...this is the right time to let it go

I was talking with a NOUN student today and she said they write exams on the computer system which marks the scripts and gives them their scores within 30 minutes after writing your exams. No HANDOUTS or EXAM SORTING. If you do not read, you fail. So nothing like sleeping with lecturers.

I think I like the concept except that engineering and sciences are not yet on NOUN.

counter thread thing! oya bring it on chai

jamesharryson:
For anybody talking bad against NOUN, I think he/she should rethink. That institution is indeed hope to the JAMB-disgraced citizens of Nigeria. The school is really working hard for her students be allowed to be going for the NYSC programme which I think they can make it.

I have taken another course on mathematics there because that has been my dream course. I graduated as a chemical engineer. Without following the most tiring protocols of jamb, I will be graduating with B.Sc in Mathematics. I am hAppy such school exists. I also advise students who find it difficult gettong admission into circular universities to pick a form and just move on instead of killing their precious future at home

What happend to going 4 an Msc mathematics or pgd mathematics since u already have a B.eng

Thank you jare. God bless you for this.
