Drop out of the ND, and focus on the Unilag programme.

This is a 100% true story: I once had a student who was running his HND in Yabatech concurrently with his BSc programme with us. I only found out when I invited him for a chat(he was on probation). Sadly, Yabatech tossed him when they found out he was a student of OAU [this is what he told me!! I don't know how Yabatech found out!]. As at the time we had our chat, he had just been tossed, and was quite depressed. According to him, he got to HND 2 in Yabatach. Long story short, his "probation" in OAU eventually because "termination of studentship" due to poor performance.

AFAIK, per JAMB, it is illegal to run two programmes in tertiary institutions concurrently.

Thank you

Hello Nairalanders,
I am currently in a dilenma which i don't know what chioce to make. Currently, i am a student of yabatech, still in ND1. Due to our late resumption, i picked up another jamb and fortunately for me, i was admitted to Unilag for the same course i am studying in yabatech. I really dont know if runing the two might be good for me or leaving my ND programme for Bsc. I met with some people who have graduated and ask for advices. Some told me to run both since they are not far from each other while some told me to leave yabatech so it affect both. Up till now, i have not made a decision. I decided to come bk here and ask for your advices on what to do about this as unilag will be starting lectures fully on Monday. Your comment will be appreciated.
Thanks and God Bless.

for disparity sake, go for unilag.

however, if you find yourself capable of running the two together, I will urge you to run it bcoz there are some cases that your ND may get you job before your BSc/HND gets you one

U can combine the 2....since Nd is just a 2yrs course.. It's cool if you can combine... My younger sister combined her NCE with B.Ed...you can do so as well.

In as much as i envy your decision to seek out better opportunities to further increase your chances in life, i find it difficult to reconcile the logic behind your dilemma and some of the funny advice you are receiving here, why go to different institutions to study the same course?if you ask me thats not reasonable at all!,if they were two different courses maybe there would have been an angle to it.

In an era where people who have MSC are siting at home, some folks are telling you ND would be of advantage!, to secure which kind of job?

You just want to put yourself into unnecessary confusion and distress at such an early age, OP why?

How would you sell your story to an HR when asked why you went ahead to complete two different degrees in the same disciple at the same time?

No truly successful person does this kind of task, successful persons stick to a path and divert when necessary not waste time pursuing unnecessary things..Go to the university stab Yaba tech

i will advise you run the two programs. It will pay off in the long run.

I did the same thing. I ran my HND in Ilaro and my BSC in OAU concurrently. I even served with my HND while in 400 levels in OAU. It was tough, very tough but the rewards are immense. You must study hard,have pals who will assist you sign attendance sheet and do some leg works when u are not in school etc and you must be well above average academically.

The rewards-
1. You can work anywhere...
2. The stress will prepare you for real life stress when u start working
3. Get more invitation for interviews as interviewers will be curious to meet you to explain to them how you manage the two
4. strong point for you during interview when the interviewer ask you if you can cope with work stress
etc

I wish I could also do this, but monetary constraints. Already paid acceptance, school fee and house rent in Ilaro for HND when UI came calling. Struggling to raise fees for UI now.
