I am sorry, the attendant didn't know what he/she is talking about. Just last semester, my total money was 33k. I first paid 10k, then 15k and then 7k and finally 1k. All the tellers are with me. Same way I did in my first semester.

There is no really official first or second semester in NOUN because my own first semester may be your own second semester. But what I don't understand is that, are you talking about the semester that the exam has just been completed and the result we are currently expecting (i.e between January- May 2015)or this present semester we are in which started June and will end by November?

The Endemic Corruption At The National Open
University Of Nigeria By Elias Ozikpu
It is time for the relevant authorities in charge of academic
matters in Nigeria to turn to the National Open University of
Nigeria and ensure that the insupportable exploitation
currently being executed at that institution with cynical
disregard be brought to an immediate halt! It is no longer
news to knowledgeable people that the National Open
University of Nigeria has turned itself into a money-draining
Agency.
It is time for the relevant authorities in charge of academic
matters in Nigeria to turn to the National Open University of
Nigeria and ensure that the insupportable exploitation
currently being executed at that institution with cynical
disregard be brought to an immediate halt! It is no longer
news to knowledgeable people that the National Open
University of Nigeria has turned itself into a money-draining
agency. That, in itself, is stale news to those who are
conversant with the system. But it is inconceivable to believe
that a people can be pushed to this humiliating extent and
still decide to maintain grinning visages in the face of such
alien oppression! It is this passive role championed by the
University's students themselves that I have struggled so
hard to decipher.
Although I have been very uncomfortable with the entire
situation, I deliberately kept mum all along; I had done so
hoping that this epidemic would die a natural death. But
now, with its rapid growth, developing deep roots into our
system like a vicious virus, I feel it is time to blow the
whistle.
Firstly, it is not clear why the University charges a
COMPULSORY registration fee for research project for final-
year students. Last semester (2014/15 academic session),
this fee was charged at N10,000. Now, the University has, for
unknown reasons, and without any official notice to its
students, decided to increase this fee to the sum of N15,000.
I am unable to figure out the rationale for which students
should pay the University for a research that will be carried
out by the students themselves. The conclusion of my
rumination over this matter is that the act is completely
indefensible and a deliberate ploy to get money off
students.
Secondly, depending on the course, students are sent out
every semester for Industrial Training. The University also
charges a COMPULSORY registration fee for this, and an
additional N1,000 which must be paid separately into
a Stanbic IBTC Bank account! Last semester, as in the
academic session stated above, this fee was N3,000. At the
moment, the University has catapulted it to N10,000! Again,
without any viable reason and without any prior notification.
Thirdly, it is not clear why the University should charge a fee
for what it termed 'Result Verification'. This fee is payable
every year and it is charged at N5,000. Despite this fee being
paid, students who have attempted to verify the authenticity
of the controversial results awarded to them have largely
collided on a rock. So, if results are not verifiable, how then
can the National Open University of Nigeria justify the
receipt of this money from students?
Fourthly, the University gets paid for course materials but it
never provides these materials. Prices for each material
depend on the credit units of the course. At the moment, a
two credit unit course material is N2,000, however slim the
material may be, whilst a three credit unit course is charged
at N2,500. Payment for these materials is also
COMPULSORY. Now, supposing a student runs ten courses in
a single semester, the minimum payable amount for course
materials alone stands at N20,000. This fee does not include
fees for examination registration. Students must pay the
sum of N1,000 per course if they are to participate in any
semester examination. This, for a student running ten
courses, brings the fee to N30,000 for a single semester! And
do note that this analysis does not include compulsory fee,
which maybe N28,000 or N13,000, depending on the
semester.
After receiving payment for course materials from students
across Study Centres nationwide, the University may issue
one, two, or zero course materials out of a possible ten as
illustrated above. Thereupon, the University advises
students, without compunction, to get these materials in
whatever way they deem fit. At this point, students are solely
on their own to hunt for additional money in order to re-
purchase these materials elsewhere. The University is
unconcerned about what becomes of students who are
unable to get materials afterwards. Such is the immensity of
the insensitivity being inflicted on a people whose only
offence is their decision to seek knowledge.
It is instructive to state here in plain terms that this article is
not aimed at questioning the steady increase of these illegal
fees, its aim is to challenge their existence and why they are
being imposed on students. I blame this fully-fledged
malady on the recreant attitude of the students, prime
victims of this scheme. Their silence is not digestible to me.
But it does represent the actions of a people who have been
brought to total subjugation by mighty forces.
It is to continue with the ongoing scheme that the National
Open University of Nigeria has, with unusual vigor, negated
the several attempts made by some knowledgeable students
to form a Student Union. I must warn the authorities of the
National Open University of Nigeria to quickly remember
that their tenacious disapproval of a Student Union is illegal
and a violation of section 40 of the Constitution of the
Federal Republic of Nigeria under 'right to peaceful
assembly and association' which clearly states:
'Every person shall be entitled to assemble freely and
associate with other persons, and in particular he may form
or belong to any political party, trade union or any other
association for the protection of his interests.'
Consequently, I would like to invite relevant authorities to
conduct a comprehensive review of the illicit activities of the
National Open University of Nigeria.
Those running the University must understand that the
objective for setting up the institution was to disseminate
knowledge, not as a ploy to take advantage of a student
community mainly dominated by those at the lowest level of
our economic ladder. That will not be acceptable going
forward!
