Want to become a General? Go to UNN.

To restore the dignity of man- that's the motto of my alma mater. I guess we never really did understand why or what that meant. I spent 5 years in UNN and attended all 4 Campuses. I graduated from the College of Medicine as a Physiologist and one thing I learnt was how to be resourceful. I typically had to learn many things myself because our classes were combined in college till my 3rd year. I still wouldn't trade it, because it groomed me. Gave me friends turned family. Built the Lion spirit in me. I am actually a Super Lioness! Campus life was sweet since I lived off campus. I had nice lecturers and the ones that were just nasty. Apart from the archaic teaching methods sometimes, it was a time worthy experience. Plus, I didn’t come out a dumbass!

Challenging Yet Rewarding

Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) offers a solid academic foundation, especially in science and engineering fields. The lecturers are knowledgeable and passionate, and I appreciated the strong sense of community among students. Likes: - Affordable tuition - Good academic structure - Dedicated lecturers in some faculties - Strong alumni network Dislikes: - Inconsistent academic calendar - Poor infrastructure and limited resources - Administrative delays - some sexual harassment from some lecturers Would I recommend it? Yes — if you're determined and can adapt to challenges, ESUT will teach you both academics and resilience. However, I’d also encourage future students to be proactive and patient with the system.

About G.O University

I began my programme at Godfrey Okoye university with a discouraged mind because it was not a first choice university. This was because of a number of reasons, one of which was the fact that it wasn't a renowned university and I wasn't aware of the experience of the lectures. My experience at Godfrey was bittersweet because the lectures were totally engaging and demanding. Being a Private University, the issue of strike was totally ruled out. The lectures were organized but some of the lecturers were not friendly. The student life was amazing but at the initial stage; we had the problem of accommodation because there weren't enough rooms for the student. We had so many activities and groups to join which include; literary society, order society e.t.c religious groups. However, we had the problem of management of the hostels and accommodation.
