My Unza Experience at The University of Zambia

🎓 The University of Zambia (UNZA) – The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

As a **BBA student minoring in Economics**, I’ve experienced UNZA’s highs and lows firsthand. Yes, it’s Zambia’s top university—but surviving here takes grit!

*âś… The Good:*
– **BBA + Economics minor** is a powerhouse combo for business careers.
– *No spoon-feeding!* You’ll learn independence through relentless research.
– *Reputation matters*—UNZA grads dominate Zambia’s corporate & public sectors.

*❌ The Bad:*
– **Lecturers do the bare minimum**—don’t expect extra help or deep explanations.
– *Registration is a nightmare*—slow, inefficient, and staff rarely care to fix errors (missing results, anyone?).

*🔥 The Ugly (Campus Reality Check):**
– **Hostel Crisis:** Only **3,000 beds for 30,000+ students**—good luck finding accommodation!
– **Dilapidated Facilities:** Broken furniture, crumbling walls, and **filthy bathrooms** with frequent **water outages*.
– *Health Hazard?* Poor drainage, clogged sewers, and **questionable sanitation**—pack your disinfectant!
*Exposed Electric wiring*

*Bottom line?* UNZA **will* toughen you up—whether from academics, admin battles, or surviving the hostels. If you can thrive here, you can thrive anywhere. 💪

📢 *Still tempted?* Visit: *www.unza.zm* *(Bring your own toilet paper.)*

First of all everyone at the Johan Cruyff Institute was incredibly kind and patient with us very attentive to everything including the professors who clearly knew what they were doing If they didn't they wouldn't have made us rethink our perspective on Mexican sports and its development or how we [...]

A decent university with engaging teachers
