Extra year in the University, what can I do ? by Thomey: 7:58am On Jan 19, 2016 |
The Senate of my school released results of graduating students yesterday. Unfortunately my name wasn't there. I'm so sad and angry at myself. Firstly, how do I tell my parents ??. My Dad will likely disown me, my mom has great expectations for me will be greatly disappointed and she is also hypertensive. My siblings who sponsored part of my education are going to have nothing to do with me. I'm currently with my sister and how to break the news to her is beyond me. A lot of questions and possibilities have been going through my head but I am just clueless right now Please your advice is urgently needed before my sister gets back from work.

Thomey: My brother, I will advise you stay put and concoct a convincing story of why your service year might be postponed, since your case might migrate into the fire from the frying pan if they know about your predicament. Cook up a story about your department having an issue and of which every student will be affected cos the Senate wouldn't grant hearing until case id resolved within the department. Just cook up anything u can always defend. And never forget to tell the truth at the fulness of time. Why would they not include your name? Are you having any academic or social problem? |

Thomey: I don't have much to tell you but keep your calm and remember its not the end of life, you just need to put more efforts into you studies. Do not contemplate suicide! www.nairaland.com/2772618/futa-student-commits-suicide-after |
Re: Extra year in the University, what can I do ? by Thomey: 8:19am On Jan 19, 2016 |
Suicide is not an option. Though it has crossed my mind. Why would I kill myself and be condemned forever |
Re: Extra year in the University, what can I do ? by Pineapp: 8:19am On Jan 19, 2016 |
Thomey:Well,maybe you ignored some cogent things you should do as a student. Or maybe fate just woke up on you. But in all,this is not a complete story and you have to tell your family whataguan |

Thomey:See, come out 2 dem, there is no need lying. Go thru whoever you are closer 2 btw ur parents. They myt be mad @ first, with time, they'll come down. I know how frustrating it can be, buh then, just summon courage and tell them. A certain girl refused to open up 2 her parents @ om that she had 2 spill. During convocation, her parents came just 2 discover their daughter was not graduating...imagine d disappointment. Pick up courage, its not d end of the world |

unfortunately I find myself in this situation, checked spreadsheet yesterday only to discover that despiye a CGPA of 3.82, I'm going to have an extra year for failing a university course(unwaivable). I feel like a disappointment, don't know how to tell my mum, feels like the end of the world to me, 1 full year and school fees just because of 1 course ![]() ![]() ![]() @Thomey pls how did you cope? @deewhone any help here? |
Re: Extra year in the University, what can I do ? by deewhone(f): 12:32am On Aug 25, 2017 |
Sammypedro18:Sorry my reply is coming late. I think it's better you pick up the courage to tell your mum. I believe she will understand and please don't see yourself as a failure. It's a short period you'll overcome in no time. You can email me for further help or discussions |

Re: Extra year in the University, what can I do ? by jennymbah: 10:50am On Dec 12, 2018 |
pls I also need someone to counsel me on this too |
Re: Extra year in the University, what can I do ? by pawsofdikeje(m): 1:13pm On Dec 12, 2018 |
jennymbah: Having an extra year is not the end of the world. Its better you tell your parents the truth, return back to school and pass the outstanding courses. I had extra year thrice due to some reason but I am glad i finished up what i started, graduated and the same course is what i use in feeding myself and family now. I pray God grants you the strength. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Thomey:What course are you studying? If your parents turn their backs on you because of an academic challenge, start questioning the love they have for you. Do they love you or are you just their object of meeting their expectations and/or building their prestige? |
