Accounting and Finance Bachelors

I studied for 4 years in UOP - First-year foundation and 3-year bachelor's. The university buildings are spread around the city which means a typical day would be attending classes in different parts of the city - depending on the lectures you take. The degree program includes several interesting modules that contain knowledge that is applicable in your everyday life. One particular module I enjoyed was Financial markets and Institutions - which generally discusses the money markets and institutions and how they interact with each other. One key skill I picked up from the latter was the ability to analyse and make an educated judgement on investing in the stock market. Other key modules include Financial Reporting, Taxation, and Management Accounting - if you plan on pursuing a career in accounting and attempt the Acca, these three modules in addition to others give exemptions to several topics in the first 2 levels of the ACCA. Generally, I did not find the lectures and seminars at the university engaging therefore the motivation to attend them was not there. However, I found that attending the lectures and getting good grades are linked. The student life in UOP consists mainly of nights out - there is minimal to do in the city and few events throughout the year. On the other hand, the close-knit community of students (which is due to the many student accommodation buildings) makes you feel very welcome as an international student. There is a very diverse sum of students from all over the world. All in all, I would recommend the university to others.

My Opinion About AAUA

I completed my degree in Mass Communication at Adekunle Ajasin University, Ondo State, in 2017. It was a remarkable experience all the way through. The admission process was flexible, and the school’s tuition fees were highly affordable. One of the things I appreciated most was the freedom to live off-campus. The cost of living in the community was very affordable, which made life much more enjoyable compared to Lagos, where I come from. Life in Ondo State was more relaxed and less expensive than in my hometown, Lagos. The cultural heritage, myths, and traditional beliefs of the indigenous people made the environment vibrant and full of interesting stories. The university’s curriculum structure made learning easy and engaging. The introduction of an IT-based examination system was particularly impressive—we no longer had to deal with paper exams, which made the process more convenient and efficient. Accessing results online through the university’s portal and registering for semester courses were also seamless and user-friendly experiences. Overall, my time at Adekunle Ajasin University was both memorable and rewarding. It provided a balanced environment for academic growth, cultural exposure, and personal development.
