Is It Weird To Have Degrees From The Same University? by HawksDude(op):
So I'm about picking up application form for another professional Masters degree (MBA) from the same where I had my first degree and Masters.

Naturally, I would have preferred doing it in a better university abroad like most people but I currently can't afford that.

Does it make sense to go back to my alma mater for the third time? Those who were in my shoes, how did it end?

it's not a problem but why don't you change school just to be in a different environment.

If i may ask what did you achieve with first and second degree? You are using degrees to hide ko ? grin grin

On a serious note there is nothing wrong with that ..You should school at the location that is most convenient to aide proper scholarship

Nigeria is still a largely certificate-driven country. There are some opportunities that you'll miss out on if you don't have some qualifications.

Also, certificates get obsolete quickly these days. I believe you cant just be there and not go back to school to learn and update yourself. The world is changing very fast.

All my degrees are in different fields tho.
