Can I Go For A Masters Degree With A 2.2 Degree? by nobody01: 11:54am On Aug 14, 2021 |
Good morning all, it's my first time posting on this section. Please I need your suggestions and opinions. I have an issue that is seriously bothering me, I am a third year Computer Engineering student of a Federal University. The problem is my result has dropped from the 2.1, I was managing to a 2.2 my current CGPA is 3.07, and I even fear it may drop to a third class if I am not careful. Now the issue is I was advised to substitute my reading time and time for classes to focus more on my programming by my senior colleagues but it's adversely affecting my CGPA. I have already resolved that I may not graduate with a 2.1 again, because I have been busy with several gigs which are giving me a practical work experience and the pay is great for a student. But on the bright side my work resume has improved, and I am getting really juicy offers which will allow me to save up and eventually leave the country. The issue now is I want to go for my Masters Degree but, I don't know if I will be given admission in a Computer Science or Software Development related course due to my CGPA. Please if you have towed this part and you were successful, please share your experiences because this has been draining and stressing me for some time. I would like to apply to universities in Ireland, UK, Sweden, Canada, Germany, France, Netherlands, Austria, Finland, and South Africa but I am open to other suggestions as long as a permanent residency is guaranteed. Also, will the prospective universities overlook the CGPA if I have a good resume and work experience. Please I really need answers from the experts and those who have had similar experiences on the forum. PS: I am sorry for the long post but please bear with me. Thank you in advance for your contributions. |

There are many conditions attached to gaining admission, CGPA is just one of it... Your 2.2 would only filter you out from attending some expensive universities. So, finish strong, learn how to apply, gather every necessary info and watch how you do great things with your 2.2. in a saner climate than some first class here. Good luck! |

Focus on finishing strong. There are colleges whose requirement is that you have a CGPA amounting to a 2.1 only for the last 2 years of your study, So, if your last 2 years results is strong, your good to go |
