The University of Port Harcourt made me smarter and opened my eyes to many things I didn’t know about life. It truly prepared me for the journey ahead, teaching me not just to learn and read harder but also to enjoy the experience along the way. Overall, it was a good and transformative experience for me.
What I disliked, however, was the fact that some students were made to repeat extra years simply because of unpaid school fees. This led to many brilliant and intelligent students dropping out, which I felt was unfair. There should have been better ways to handle such situations, maybe a fine, an increased fee, or other penalties, rather than making students start over or leave the school entirely. It was heartbreaking to watch some of my mates drop out or repeat classes while others graduated.
Would I recommend the University of Port Harcourt? Absolutely, yes. But I would advise anyone to ensure they pay their fees on time to avoid unnecessary setbacks.
