Education / Re: Nigerians Scammed By Asians In Ukraine. by dipocarew: 12:17pm On Aug 20, 2011
I recently posted on these visiting the place Ukraine after 10 years of graduation I was rather shocked with the news of Asians duping Nigerians. I seem to understand people went with this Asians is to avoid dubious Nigerians in the first place it is well!!!!
Education there is nothing compared with Naija education compared to the private universities that are not een recognized worldwide it is not a bad option provided you can get agents to facilitate the move. And very shocked some comment I have read here people making general statement


However it is still a closed system thus corrupt and the language barrier not helping but regardless I think it very offensive for individual to insinuate both current and old students are cheats, it just show the level of decorum some people have even when writing not to talk of direct speak.
I would only suggest do you home work well and remember you don't have to pay for tuition fees until you get tot your school and don't be shy ask for someone other than the person who took you there to translate. You now need to go for an interview at he embassy in Abuja so you are sure the visa you are given is not fake. And if you are not going there to study stay back in Naija you can only study there and your family must be ready to sponsor you all the way through.
Been there done that got the T shirt, LOL
Educational Services / Re: Quality Education In Ukraine At An Affordable Rate For Nigerians by dipocarew: 11:58am On Aug 20, 2011
Further to the thread above I would like to add Yes the Ukraine is developing but things work there unlike our great Nigeria. Are there jobs for the National yes there is I studied with 27 Ukrainians the all have good jobs that is more than what we can say of our great country thus judging a country but the ability of a foreigner being able to find work is not exactly fair as I could turn around and ask you how many foreigners are able to find holiday jobs or jobs in Nigeria after graduation.
Is the system corrupt Yes it is but the corruption now where near that in practice in Nigeria I hope I have been able to throw some light on the topic and hope I have not stepped on any toes, just said things the way I see it.

Very interesting the comments I am reading here I will therefore make my comments trying to touch on issues I think are relevant. I studied in Ukraine and did my masters in the United Kingdom and I now work and have done for the past years in the UK.
First and foremost the educational system in Ukraine is recognized worldwide as compared to the present day Nigerian degrees which are no longer recognized.
Compared to western countries where you would pay tuition fees of of a maximum $3500 and accommodation of around $30 provided you stay in school accommodation. If you opt to stay in private accommodation you pay much more a maximum of $500 per month. I was able to travel during my studies but that does not guarantee everybody will be able to do the same also finding work outside during holidays is not guaranteed but possible it all depends on who you know etc.
Another issue is the ability to work paid work I would say is almost none existent some worked but the amount of capital needed to trade is so much I doubt is ordinary students can cough up such especially now that the prices of things have sky rocketed. A lot of people traveled to Ukraine with the hope of immigrating such got stuck and such now do undignified jobs pushing trolleys in the market the list goes on if you do not have someone to finance your studies or your stay there I would politely suggest you do not even try.
I started my undergraduate in Nigeria before I left for Ukraine I never worked so I find issue with the fact that I need to work whilst a student in a foreign country it is not a most. In the same light I would like to reiterate the notion that you can work whilst in the Ukraine is false and know several individuals including myself who never worked whilst studying. If your family can afford it whats the problem.
