National Open University of Nigeria - NOUN
speciality: Social Policy

The school is very flexible, it allows you to work and still study, and is also a conducive area to learn, there online facilitation on each course is very good.the facilitation help you to understand the courses more.

I like that they are very organized and friendly, they put you through whatever you need help with, they make sure you are on the right track when processing your admission. They treat everyone equally, giving full support and paying attention to your questions and helping out with the answers.

Like I said about my highlights of the school,it gives students, especially working class and business people the flexibility to study at their own pace.

However, one of the downside of the school is that the teaching/lectures isn’t like the convention universities whereby theres often direct and physical interactions between the lecturers and the students. Mostly the students studies by themselves and or vis online classes.

But I must mention the beautiful experience of meeting diverse people,eg working in various sector of the economy and successful,and even young and vibrant students that helps to give a more better human interaction experience.

The National Open University of Nigeria has been a remarkable platform for accessible and flexible higher education. As someone who values lifelong learning and self-paced study, NOUN has offered me an academic journey that fits seamlessly into my lifestyle. Its open and distance learning model is particularly well-suited for working professionals, parents, and individuals who may not be able to attend traditional universities.

One of the things I appreciate most about NOUN is the wide range of accredited programs offered across different faculties, including arts, social sciences, health sciences, education, and more. The quality of study materials is impressive, and the online learning environment is user-friendly and continuously improving.

The university’s nationwide presence with study centres across Nigeria ensures that students can access support services wherever they are. The flexibility in lecture attendance, online resources, and timely tutor-marked assignments makes it easier to balance education with other commitments.

NOUN is also doing a commendable job of embracing technology in education, with the e-Courseware and virtual classrooms helping bridge the gap in traditional face-to-face learning.

Overall, NOUN stands out as a beacon of inclusive and quality education in Nigeria. It is a great choice for anyone looking to earn a degree on their own terms, and I am proud to be part of its growing community of learners.

I with my 5 years in the school I cantell that the academic background of the school is underrated

I graduated from National Open University Nigeria I’m delighted to share my honest opinion about the institution. NOUN created room for deeper learning ( intensive study,mastery and indepth analysis ) you have to study intensively for a good grade which I found interesting.They also made provision of free materials to study.
Learning from the comfort of my home and also building supportive community was an amazing experience for me. Additionally the school supervisor and lecturers were approachable and supportive.

One area where the school need to improve on is there Web server, some times it could be challenging to take lectures online when there is server traffic.

A reputable institution with sufficient resources, reasonable tuition, and no strike policies unlike other traditional universities .You learn at any place at your pace this give more time to do other things

The University is good for self paced. I like the flexibility in the study schedule. What I dislike is the way the instructional materials are written. My recommendation would be that the textbooks should be student friendly.

National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) is an online university that allows you to learn from the comfort of home, office or work place etc. Through it advanced technological learning and studying skill, student have been able to earn a degree. There is no strike like every other conventional University that goes on strike in Nigeria. The flexible tution fee payment is surperb compare to other universities. Not only that,the fees for each courses are relatively low and affordable.

My dislikes about the university, although it is wonderful knowing that there is a university in Nigeria that offers you quality education from the comfort of your home or work place but then network glitch is unbearable and annoying,I wish the school could fix it. Despite it all,it is a wonderful platform to learn.
