Academically, some departments were genuinely impressive. I had a few lecturers who were incredibly passionate and knowledgeable, really pushing us to think critically. Others, not so much. The curriculum in agriculture had its moments of brilliance, especially when we got into the parts of animal husbandry But honestly, there were also times I felt like some of the material was a bit outdated or not entirely relevant to the real world. The library was decent, though I sometimes struggled to find the specific resources I needed.
Student life was… interesting. The campus itself is beautiful, no doubt about that. The architecture is stunning, and there’s a real sense of order and cleanliness. But the strict regulations, especially regarding social life, could be a bit much at times. It definitely fostered a certain kind of community, but it also felt a bit restrictive. There were some great opportunities for extracurricular activities, though I wish there had been more variety. I did enjoy [mention a specific club or activity you were involved in], and that was definitely a highlight.
Now, the Christian ethos… it’s a huge part of Landmark’s identity. For me personally, it wasn’t a problem. I respect the values, and it created a generally peaceful atmosphere. However, I can see how it might not be for everyone. The chapel services and other religious activities were a regular part of life, and you couldn’t really avoid them.
Infrastructure-wise, Landmark is definitely a step above many other Nigerian universities. The buildings are well-maintained, and the power supply was generally more stable than what I’d experienced elsewhere. Internet access was… well, let’s just say it had its moments. It wasn’t always reliable, which could be frustrating, especially when deadlines were looming
