University of Lagos - UNILAG Speciality : Economics
programme: Economic and Social Sciences

Graduating from the University of Lagos was a major milestone for me. UNILAG is one of those schools that leaves a lasting impression, both the good and the not so good.

On the positive side, the quality of education was solid. I had the chance to learn from some truly brilliant lecturers who challenged us to think differently and push beyond our comfort zones. The diversity on campus also helped shape my perspective. I met people from all walks of life, and that experience alone was priceless.

UNILAG definitely prepared me for the real world. It taught me resilience, how to think on my feet, and how to make the most of limited resources. The hustle culture on campus is real, but in a way, it builds you up.

That said, not everything was smooth. The administrative system could be frustrating with long queues, last minute changes, and plenty of back and forth just to get simple things done. Accommodation was another issue. Getting a decent space was tough, and some facilities really needed attention. It wasn’t always easy, but we found ways to cope.

Looking back, I’m grateful. UNILAG helped shape who I am today. It wasn’t perfect, but it was real, and for that, I’ll always carry the experience with pride and perspective.
