Thank you so much

Hey 🤠


Don't be discouraged with your CGPA . At age 20 you still have better years ahead . Summon your courage and be determine to graduate in the next 2 years ( I have calculated your imagined extra year) , therefore by age 24 you would have rounded off your NYSC.

You have spent 4 years in a reputable University in Nigeria, therefore be determined to get that Bsc even if you come out with the poorest CGPA . You may want to contest for political offices , banking Jobs NNPC , etc ...don't put out all hope out of NIGERIA .



HOWEVER
=========


1. If you are too determined to start another life in the USA then i will recommend you start from the begining (Bsc) . Write the year 2024 TOEFL and start contacting Universities in the United States from now .

***** If you start from the begining (Bsc) , you will certainly be among the top students in your department based on your years of study back in Nigeria .

**** While you are applying to the US Universities, don't stop your education with your present schoo in Nigeria until when your visa is on your table .


2. If you don't want to start from the beginning , yes you can transfer to US Universities from your current school but no one here can determine your acceptance probability.

***** Send emails to Universities in the USA, explaining your CGPA situation to them and tell them the department that you want to enrol in . They will be glad to reply you and tell you if you are good to start with your transfer process .


3. Start like this ; Google search Public Universities in the United States. Take the schools one by one and email their International Admissions office . By the time you have sent mail to like 25 schools , you will receive responses .



Best Wishes 🙏

Hi guys

I'm new here, I am currently a 400 lvl student in a federal university in Nigeria (my course is 5 years), I averaged well in my 100 lvl but after that it all went downhill, I currently have 5 fs ( not because I was unserious though, just passed through a lot of stuffs), my current gpa is between 2.5 - 2.8/4.0 and I am definitely going to spillover some courses and have an extra year, I saw some universities that accept that range of gpa, but my question is will I be able to transfer to a US university with 5 Fs on my transcript?
Or should I just start over with a bachelors degree (is that legal?), I'm currently 20 years old so age is on my side I think..


Please I need your advice guys
