Unilag is unbeatable because it is still one of the best Nigerian university, with strict but loveable lecturers with comfortable and sitting lecture halls and hostels.
And the lecture is very relatable to the field of study you choose.

At the moment, I don’t recommend the University. One major reason is the incessant strike actions that continually disrupt the educational calendar. Currently, I’m on track to spend 9 years on a degree that is meant to be 6 years.
Another reason I don’t recommend the University is because students aren’t listened to, neither are their opinions or complaints valued. Lastly, because I’m a student in a medical-related field, I stay on a separate campus from other UNILAG students. The infrastructure (classrooms, hostel, places to sit) in the campus is not great and there seems to be a disconnect between the main campus and the medical campus.
The only reason I gave my experience three stars is because of all the amazing students and occasionally amazing lectures I’ve encountered.

Honestly, just go to a state or private university (if you can afford it). It’ll save you from a lot of emotional angst.

My stay at the university of Lagos has been a wonderful experience so far. Every bit of activity including classes, lectures, practicals, and extracurricular activities inclusive in the university is worth what every student should devote their time to. Though sometimes it could be overwhelming, the long never-ending lectures, assignments, and exam anxieties, but are what to be expected of any student in any Nigerian university. I would gladly recommend my school to any aspirant out there because it offers all the things a student should experience in their studentship period, talk about exposures, talent shows, international opportunities and so many among others. The school is very intentional about the wellbeing of its students and that’s really commendable…well, in terms of accommodation , I think the school has to do better, providing 8,000 students accommodation out of over 40,000 students is really not encouraging . More hostels will do Justice to this.. Overall, I’m proud of my program as a medical student and the school as a whole.

Well, the course is as expected… Stressful, voluminous and time-consuming.
I like the lecturers a lot though. They’re good. I kinda prefer the anatomy department more though.
I’m not certain I’ll tell a friend to study this program since it’s a lot of stress. But then, if they’re veryyyyyyyyyyyyyy passionate about it, why not? I wish them luck, success and I hope they won’t lose their drive.

It’s stressful studying in my school. I wish the learning environment were made better. Our lecturers are doing amazing. I also want more attention to be paid to the mental health of students in my school; a lot are suffering in silence.

Likes
I) The relative ease compared to some other federal universities
II) The spiccess curriculum that ensures we learn related concepts across ANATOMY, PHYSIOLOGY & BIOCHEMISTRY
III) The automatic accommodation available for MBBS students
IV) The cheapness of the program itself
V) Decent Rooms in the hostel

Dislikes
I) The cost of Accommodation (almost double that of the main campus)
II) The impunity and impromptu decision making of certain course coordinators
III) The last-minute decision making & announcement by the college
IV) Overadmitting in 100L and the cutthroat competition to cross to 200 level
VI) The last-minute rushing of labs and practicals that should have been done long ago

I love my program but it’s so stressful. Plus when you are not yet in the clinicals, the school doesn’t care about you. There’s no coordination. The course coordinators for the pre-clinicals are so rigid and inconsiderate. They can just wake up and cancel a result insisting you rewrite the exam and that’s what will happen because no one can plead for us, no course adviser, no supervisor.
