4 Things You Must Know After Gaining Admission by gr8tness(m): 11:16pm On Oct 30, 2022
Before raising your shoulders like "Portable the Singer" after gaining admission to the university, there are 4 things you need to know.

1. Most courses have lost relevance: Apart from courses like Medicine and Surgery, etc., most courses have gone out of extinction because the labour market seldom accommodates such. What this means is, you need to make yourself marketable by developing your skills, and talent and making sure you graduate with a good CGPA; it begins with day one.

2. No course will teach you what you need to succeed, at least, not most of the courses will: so don't be that computer science graduate who has never used Microsoft Excel and don't be a masscom graduate who does not understand what voice over means etc. So prepare yourself and study hard, you sure need brains, skills and gut to sail through in Nigeria, unless you have a godfather somewhere.

3. Make friends and think of networking: Before "portablising" around the campus, choose your friends. Truth is, we are all going places and as a young person, you need a lot of networking in school and outside the school environment. I'm not saying find rich men children, I'm saying, make quality friends and do not despise relationships that come your way.

4. Lastly, you must know God. Campus time is a good time for fellowship, engaging in godly activities and lots more. It's time to develop a relationship with God cause later in life, you would realise that there will be little time for fellowship, even if you want to, hustle won't allow it. So set that foundation from now and that is what will pay off.

Some elders are also on this platform, they can share their advice as well. Wishing you all the best.
