Private or Public Universities – Which Is Better?

I was doing a research recently on private universities in Nigeria and I was surprised that there are well over 30 private universities in Nigeria!

I can remember a time (not too long ago) when there were only a handful of private universities in Nigeria. In fact, many people needed a lot of convincing to opt for a private university.

The story is slightly different now.

Many students these days choose private universities when making a choice of institution. Still may others swear that public universities still churn out better quality graduates!

Sure, I agree that private universities have benefits like the absence of strike and easy access to lecturers, but are they really better especially in the quality of graduates?

How really do public and private universities compare with each other?



Let’s do some comparisons below and see how they perform.

Funding

The major difference between private and public universities is in how they are funded. Public schools are funded by the Government while private schools are funded by individuals and organizations.

Unfortunately, most Government funded universities have fallen into varying stages of decadence – with government falling behind on funding. On the other hand, private schools seem to be better funded which somewhat affects the quality of education there
Verdict: Private Universities Win This

Tuition
Funding affects tuition. And since private universities are privately funded, they are obviously more expensive. Tuition in private universities is approximately 9-10 times higher than it is at a public university. Some people even attest that the tuition can build a comfortable 2 bedroom apartment!

This makes them inaccessible to lower class families (except they get a scholarship).

Verdict: Public Universities Win This

Prestige
Just the word ‘private’ gives the impression of exceptionalism and prestige. Private is exclusive and it’s not for everyone. Students in private universities carry a sense of being in a better situation than their public counterparts.

Is this really an advantage? Some people think so.

Verdict: Private Universities Win This

Strike Action
Except you live under the rock, you must have heard of the numerous strike actions by academic and non- academic staff of public universities.

Academic staffs go on strike so frequently that a four year course ends up lasting for 6 years (that is if you are lucky).

It was in the wake of these issues (which seemed to defy all solutions) that parents started seeking better alternatives – fueling the private universities ‘business’. So far, I have not heard of any academic staff strike in a private university (though I may be wrong)

Verdict: Private Universities Win This

Ease Of Getting Admission
Try getting into any of the ‘ivy league’ public universities (Like UI, Unilag or Ife) to read a good course, and you will realize that you have to pass Jamb very well!

Private universities on the other hand even have admission options that automatically accept students to read certain courses! They have made getting into the university so easy that the rigor required to get into a public school is being ‘looked down on’

In my opinion, students need to ‘sweat’ a little to gain University admission, so they can value it!

Verdict: Public Universities Win This.

Lecturer/Student Relationship
Students in private universities generally build stronger, more personal relationships with their lecturers as there are avenues designed to increase communication and dialogue between them.

This generally does not happen in public universities.

Lecturers in the private schools seem to owe the students the duty to be available to them, unlike in the public schools. This increase in communication may lead to a better learning environment

Verdict: Private Universities Win This.

Developing Independence and Street Wisdom
Public universities expose students to the real world in terms of the hustle and bustle of everyday life unlike private universities that consist of semi–spoilt children who are literally spoon-fed.

They are so pampered (I hear some schools even do their laundry for them) that they may find it difficult to blend into the real world when they graduate.

Some might argue this point, claiming that they need time to study, etc but what sort of backbone would they be developing being treated this way. These are undergraduates who should be growing into adulthood!

The rules in some private universities are so ‘childish’ that it underscores the joy and essence of being in University. This is the stage in their lives where they need to become very independent as they transition to adulthood.

Verdict: Public Universities Win This.

Curriculum and exams
The curriculum of private universities may not be as rigorous or difficult as the public universities. And to make matters even worse, there are rumors that lecturers in some of the ‘well known’ private universities have been given a mandate to ensure all their students pass. Where is the incentive for the students to study?

If you were such a lecturer, what would you do? Little wonder there is a flurry of first class graduates from these universities!

No such sentiments exist in the public universities – lecturers have no qualms failing you if you don’t sit up. That is why students who desire first class and second upper in the public universities go through so many rigors to study. No wonder they are usually preferred by some employers.

Verdict: Public Universities Win This.
Check Past Questions Resource page - PastQuestions.Ng


Size and Degree Offerings
Another difference between private and public universities is their size and the number of degrees they typically offer. Private colleges tend to be smaller than public universities and may not offer the full range of available courses.

Students who want a wider choice of courses can only find them at public universities. In public universities, undergraduates will be enrolled in academic programs ranging from traditional liberal arts to highly specialized professional courses (like Medicine and Engineering). Private universities may not be equipped enough to offer Medicine or Engineering courses

Verdict: Public Universities Win This

Learning Conditions
The class-size of public universities is a real problem. At public universities, the students are so many that they even spill outside the lecture hall, with students sitting on the floor, window frames and even on the lecturers table!

How easy can it be to actually learn under these conditions?

Students here have to work exceptional hard to succeed. Some lecturers do not even attend class (with no consequences) and even those that show up may not have much to offer – they are mostly interested in selling their handouts!

Students in private universities are hardly faced with issues like these.

Verdict: Private Universities Win This

So, Public or private university – which will it be?

You need to consider every factor in making a decision.

Identify your goals, your course of study, costs, culture, and environment before choosing between a public and private university.

Note that whether you go public or private, your chances in the job market are basically the same (though I hear some employers still prefer graduates from public universities). So whether you have spent millions or thousands of Naira getting educated may not matter in the job market!

Private or public, a lot depends on the individual and on how willing they are to get a quality education.

Or don’t you agree?

Public or Private University: Which Is Better?

5 useful tips to passing exams – Download As PDF

A lot of times I look on with amusement, a smile and at times pity, When I see students tumble, rumble and Murmur, looking disheveled whenever exams come knocking on the door, I call it Exams phobia, But come to think of it really, are Exams this Bad or stressful?

Have you ever had to sit down and wonder why you are running to fit in ten pages of written down notes into your head in five minutes, someone else is sitting not far away actin like a Tea party or a circus is about to start.
I bring good tidings to you, writing Exams can be Enjoyable, even for you too. YES!!! I mean for you too. How? I would reveal that to you in no time.
Like every other things, getting to make exams Easier for you, you would follow rules. I bring you five rules that have been tested and trusted.

1). Reading Long before exams: Yea, I know you have heard this time and over again, but be truthful how many times have you practiced it? Because if you have, you would not be in that mess trying to know so much in so little time.


2). Eat Well: According to statistics, it has been proved that good food and nutrients heavily aids reading procedures and our ability to recollect what we have learnt. Have you noticed you don’t tend to read well or be interested in reading when you are hungry? Make sure you stuck up good food weeks before the exams and avoid junks. Take fruits also.

3). Meet Classmates Better than you in any Course: You might be brilliant, that doesn’t however translate to you being good at all courses/subjects as the case might be. This doesn’t sound right to some, maybe because of class beef or personal ego, but if you really want to achieve your distinction, you might want to swallow your ego or bury your hatchet and walk up to that class-mate to put you through.

4). Believe in yourself and have a Positive Mindset: Remove the limiting belief that you can’t pass .If you believe you can pass or you believe you cannot pass, you are right. I have seen students under the impression that examiner is their enemy. Please don’t think so. Pass percentage might be low, but students do pass their exams. So, don’t think that you will be in a failure category ever.

These tips have been tested and trusted. Why don’t you give yourself a taste of Success and fidget no more when you hear of approaching exams. GOODLUCK!!!

Are you tired of writing post UTME every year? Without success? It is very important to note that passing JAMB does not guarantee automatic admission into any Nigerian university, rather it's only a ticket that qualifies candidates.

It is important to know that most students who passed JAMB examination sometimes, ends up not passing their post UTME. One can score 280 in JAMB and end up scoring 32 or even 20 in post UTME.

Below are some reasons why people fail post UTME.

FEAR
Fear is one of the greatest killer for someone who wants to pass PUTME exam, do not be intimidated by the number of people you see writing the same course with you, someone who fear has already been defeated and has already fail 80% of his or her Post UTME. Encourage and give hope to yourself, if you are able to remove fear in you, then you are already on the road to success. Believe in yourself and your abilities and be fearless in your deed.

FAILURE TO OBEY INSTRUCTIONS:
Instructions in the examination hall is an examination itself. Failure to obey the instruction is failure to pass the examination. Simple! Do exactly what you are told to do and avoid doing what you are not told to do.

TOO MUCH CONFIDENCE:
Overconfidence makes some students to relax into reading. Being too much confident will harm you. This type of students only realizes that they are no body only when the result is out.

SHADING WITH 2B INSTEAD OF HB PENCIL:
The OMR machine that will make the answer sheets recognizes HP pencil. So using 2B pencil may confuse the machine either to score you wrongly or discard your answers.

POOR TIME MANAGEMENT:
Time is part of the examination, they test your ability to work with time. Manage the little time given to you, don't waste much time on questions you don't know go forward and complete all the ones you know and then come back to the unknown questions if there is still time.

MALPRACTICE:
If you bring anything like expo into the exam hall, this can lead to your failure. Expo or external brain cannot help you especially in the aptitude test like Post UTME instead your Wits. If you are caught, your paper will be squeezed immediately.

FAILURE TO PURCHASE PAST QESTIONS:
Post UTME Past Questions has been part of the success stories of many. Here are some genuine past questions sellers for some universities in Nigeria. The first 3 sites are dedicated purely to their respective schools.
