Babcock University releases school fees for next session. Students protest

Well, they are not protesting in school or complaining to their school administration...they are protesting via the media. A few students from the school have sent me mails complaining about the exorbitant fees they are being made to pay to get an education. The university just released the school fees for the next session and some of the students feel its outrageous. See it below...
1) Accounting- N1.5million
2) Nursing- N1million
3) Law- N2million
4) Medicine- N3million
5) Others- N860,000
The students are scared to protest in their school because they could get suspended. Babcock is a Christian University and claims to be a non-profit organization, so students don't understand why they have to pay such huge amounts to school there. But here's my thing; complaining about the school fees of a private university is like complaining about the cost of a first class plane ticket. You have other options; business class, premium economy class, economy class. If this is too much for you, move to a federal school, state school or less expensive private schools. Not that I support these fees, I think it's ridiculous. You pay N3million a session to become a doctor and when you eventually get a job, you make less than N200 thousand a month...doesn't make much sense to me...but that's the way the school wants to operate. You either take it or leave it! What do you guys think?

But meanwhile, is there anything the federal government can do for these students? Like, make their University bring down the fees?

i wonder y people don't think b4 they comment. I'm a student of babcock and i know wat most parents go tru.4 heavens sake! wat do people mean by "if you can't afford it you shouldn't have gone", i'm sure majority of the people who commented on dis issue and are in federal or state universities, must have spent half of their lives at home bcos of strike and d inability 2 gain admission into school. so pls 4 yur information, private universities in general are life savers and they serve as alternatives. d only reason babcock students are complaining is bcos d increment is ridiculous. so i implore you all to watch wat you say and i strongly believe that God that has provided 4 each parent to start d journey will definitely see them tru.....illiterates.

My dear, take several seat abeg. D sch fee can skyrocket anytime cos its a PRIVATE uni, u shld b prepared. Its either ur parents get more money to fund u or u GENTLY move/transfer/drop/reappear/etc into a federal or state university. They r not lunatics, if u can live wit it, then deal wit it OR move out.

bobby said...

education doesnt come cheap... the reason government univesities pay so little is becos all govt universities get billions every month (budget).. in respect of a private skool, d cost lies on the fees cos theres no govt allocation.. so for them to increase their fees, its only natural its a private university... and all private organisations re out to make profit first, cos if no profit they'll close... i can only sympathise with the students, if only we had a better education sector..

Lol. And ppl in the East are protesting cus of fee increment. With that kind of money, I will go to school and still have balance to start a small business.

Anonymous said...

No offence, but after reading the comments on this thread I have come to the conclusion that 95% of the students/graduates of/from federal schools are just illetrates. I mean!? 3million for medicine is obviously outrageous and I'm pretty sure that most of the students in the private universities are not there because it's so easy for their parents but because of the horrible state of federal schools this days. I'll also like to state that most federal schools are living on the past glory of their 'ancestors'. Pls let's be realistic and act like humans and not monkeys. If you have a brain talk/type like you have one. Like I said earlier, No offence.

My dear linda babcock is a useless school in terms of money wise. N guess what dey use the money for? Travelling up n down with those dirty ugly, hungry looking staffs from the miserable, oloshi VC down to animalistic staffs. Am a graduate of babcock n I did International law n diplomacy 2009 so I know what am talking about. For babcock to calm d fuck down is a problem. They are not making students lives comfortable. I mean look at the price of school is this fair. What r dey teaching n yet this useless lecturers collects bribe n sleep with students. How much r dey paying their lecturers? Preceptresses, porters, rogers even cleaners pls tell me. That's just for u to know the spend the moni stupidly amongst themselves. Makinde n the entire adventist cancel we all know times are not challenging for u n if u want ur children to find helpers for the rest of their lives be reasonable n adjust the FEES. Awon oloriburuku, eniyan gbogbo. Useless set of hungry, mad, stupid, foolish, hypocrites calling themselves christians.

To study medicine and nursing in Ukraine and other schools abroad, it's less than a million naira. Just add like 2million naira to it, then you are done with medicine in ukraine. Why waste such a huge amount of money in Nigeria on such courses. This is so bad ooo.

I am a proud graduate of Babcock with a well-paying job. Those complaining should remember it is a private University. My 4-year old already pays over 1m in nursery school. Even popular Corona is about 1m per year, let alone the big profile schools like Lagos prep, children's international School etc.
And for morals, Babock is not heaven and they don't have popes as lecturers. If you or anyone you know claim to have "settled" a lecturer or slept with 1, then question your morals and not the school. Several of us went to babcock; we heard no evil, spoke no evil and saw no evil.

Linda! i cannot believe your comment on the choice of students attending private universities. yes, there are other choices but do you know the processes and how long it takes to gain admission in any of those tertiary institutions you mentioned? i am 29 years old and will be graduating in a couple of months from Bingham University, a private school located in Keffi road, Nasarawa state. yes, 29 years old! do you know how many JAMB exams i've written? do you know many pre-degree and diplomas i've done in federal and state schools? do you know how many times i scored well above the pass mark in JAMB but still wasn't granted admission? do you know how many times i had to bribe for my name to be included in an admission list but was devastated when i found out i was scammed? do you know how many men that asked me to book hotel rooms so they can stuff their man meat inside me in exchange for an admission into an institution? No Linda Ikeji, you don't know or have an answer to any of the questions i asked above. My peers have all graduated, most done with their masters, married with kids and experiencing the things they should at the right time. after my last experience where i was given a fake admission letter in an Eastern state school and was in 200 level already when i found out, i decided to go to a private school (Bingham University). the amount of money i pay as tuition+other charges is outrageous and the services i get for them is petty but what can i (
we) do? my father breaks his back to see that he gets my fees paid as i don't have a man to support me cos the decent men of these days want to mingle and marry graduates. even if i did have a man, i am not one to go soliciting for funds from men i didn't give money to keep for me. LOL. its true. I just felt that i should call you out on your opinion, i know its yours but it hit home.

well, well, u guys av said enough. we all av choices 2 make in life. so d question is- can they afford it or not? if they could, of what gain will the whole waste of money be of benefit to their children? I studied abroad and after which I realized my Masters fees of over N2.5 million would have been well utilized if I had invested it in a business or go into consultancy. Hence, children shouldn't leave the thinking only 2 their parents who might be competing with their friends but should in actual fact question their parent's decision and say NO when necessary......

*Linda. Going to uni in the US for a foreign std is more than 3mill naira. Babock sch/ std can lock the fee on admission/ everyone knows what they will pay for the 4 yr program and they both agree this will not go up.

Really if God does not punish them, the devil will take over. They have been exploiting us, but it seems they think we're stupid cos we don't complain. They include medical fees in the school fees & still ask us 2 pay #3,500 for some stupid "psycho-social" test. They admit students with low grades & then suspend them for a year for "low- grades". I wonder if the one-year stay @ home is supposed to "sharpen" them. D worst of all is now that they ask students to pay 25k for "extra-lessons" in courses they are offering presently. It just shows the in-competency of their lecturers. It's not like we get 1st class treatment in the school o- we qeue to fetch water, we qeue for food too, we wash toilets & bathrooms, we even stand for some classes. They hope we all get infected with full-blown aids, or what other reasons can there be for charging students #80,000 per semester for medical fees & still ask them to pay #3,500 for a urine test & demand cash for dental & optical services. I've never been to the medical centre since I got here, but I pay every session for it. Pls people out there, don't be deceived that this is a xtian school. They steal millions & then send students away for stealing "under-wear" & paltry sum of money. They also don't believe in equality of men, as they build hostels of varying grades & facilities. They should give us a total break-down of our fees & give us reasons for the increase...there shouldn't even be any increase as they don't even render the services we pay for. They are just lucky that God is "slow to anger & quick 2 forgive", else they would have seen is wrath, but if they go on this way, they will leave God no choice than to deal with them accordingly.

Linda, a lot of times people find themselves in these private schools because federal schools can frustrate you. If its not jamb, it's one thing or the other. I can relate with these students. I was privilege to attend a private university, not that the school was ever my first choice but because I was tired of getting frustrated about getting into a federal school. And on top of that when you see your mates moving forward, u will dread having to sit back another year and wait to get into a uni, which u may not even get in. Sadly, In schools like Babcock there's really not much that can be done about the rise in tuition. Federal government or not.

LoL! I school in UNIBEN, and I pay 14,000naira every session, yet we complained when it was recently increased from 10,000 to 14,000. It's probably one of the cheapest unis in Nigeria. To the Babcock matter, I'm not sure people would be complaining if they were sure of getting good value for their money, would they?

What are y'all saying?? Really put urself in their shoes n know what it feels like. Some ppl wait 4 admissions frm federal n state unis n never get them not to talk of the constant strikes!!!

Almost $20k a year to study medicine at Babcock? The world has gone mad! My sister's tuition at a well-respected US university is about that much. Babcock is a mad house run by mad people. You so-called Christians should be ashamed of yourselves.

Telling us to leave to another school isn't an option. What about those of us that are almost done?? The difference between our previous fees and what they now want us to pay is SUPER much, that is why we are protesting. u can't just increase fees without reasons, besides it is too much!! this is supposed to be a christian institution not a private money making firm.

For God's sake why complain about the fees of these private universities, the reason they are called private so don't compare these uni to the public or govt owned. It is not by force to send ur children to d private ones, my child in a private primary paid more than dat as an entrance fee here in Nigeria, more so the facilities, the amount of salaries paid the lecturers, the living conditions nd so on can't be compared.

Topdawg said...

Linda, I think your take on this issue is not helping the students' publicity of their complain. Let's try to make your argument logical if I should say so. Firstly, the luxury, comfort, relaxation you get in a first class space in a plane is far from being compared to what you will get in an economy class. This I think makes a difference on why ticket charges should be different.

Unlike the University case, many students apply to these private universities because they cannot get admitted into a government university due to competitions from many students and also the corruption in the admission processes. However, private universities admit students even if their qualifications do not meet with the required standard.

In addition, the quality of education in our private universities is very poor when compared to what is offered in government universities even if they still have more to do in the reformation of the system.

So if a school like babcock, a private university, with sub-standard Professors, an NGO starts taking tuition fees of this magnitude from students, then there is a need for people to complain. This is pure stealing. Even foreign students in South Africa, Malaysia, and other countries do not pay these amounts.

in-short make i tell u something, if u add 7 more million, u will pay for accommodation, feeding, books, health and tuition in Harvard. For abroad that 3 million will pay for ur fees and accommodation. If i am lying go meet BCIE, PFL and other agents.

Lol to the person who was to go to a university outside the country to study medicine instead of babcock. it can range from $25,000 to more than $95,000 per semester. So maybe rethink. I think medicine is so expensive because there is a high demand for doctors and because there's eventually a higher pay for them too.

I am a student of Babcock University
you guys should stop insulting the students and their parents. My guardian is a regular Nigerian like every other person, striving to provide the best for their wards.
It's not our fault that we are here. If we were admitted into the government universities #I passed my JAMB examination# we would definitely not be in this prison they call a school.
And if we knew they were going to inflate the school fees like this, most of us would not be here.
The painful thing is that there is no AC in any hostel, the food is irksome, poor internet connection, quality of education is way below standard but what can we do. We are here already.
Students cannot even dream of protesting in the school that's why we are using the social media. Hoping that somebody somewhere can do something about it.
Plus davido (the artist) is one of the nuisances the school shouldn't have.

So our prayer is in two ways:
(1) the school should reconsider and reduce the fees.
(2) God should make our parents extraordinarily rich

Instead of parents paying that kind of outrageous fees on any school in Nigeria? Why not just send the children abroad to study? What are they learning in those private schools? Currently studying in the US, I happen to take classes with graduates from those Nigerian Private Universities. Till date, they never stop running to me for help with their home work. Meanwhile, I finished from a public school in Nigeria. Most of their computer science graduates that I know cannot write just "Hello world" in C++ or Java. To me, their education in those schools is a waste of money.

1.Private University = More Money compared to Public University = Less Money

2. Graduation Date: Fixed for Private Uni, Unknown for Public Uni

3. Security: Better for Private Uni, On Your Own for public Uni

4. Cultism: No forum to come together or be active in Babcock Uni, Rampant in every public Uni

5. Electricity: Available most times in Babcock (Generator), Not too sure about Public Uni

6. Education/Lecturing/Class Attendance: Taken more seriously in Babcock (attendance is even taken some times), No one really cares if you show up or not in public Uni

7. Class Population: Limited students in a class for a particular course in Babcock, Unlimited population of students in a class in public uni. This helps the lecturer get to know students been dealt with

8. Teaching/Lecturing style: Lecturers are supposed to teach in Babcock, Lecturers lecture in public Uni (go fig out the diff)

9. Glorified Secondary School: Students are restricted in a lot of ways ... dressing, going out of school, food etc in Babcock, In public uni, u can go anywhere U like at any time you want and dress any way you like. its nobody's biz. As a parent, what would you choose for your child?

10. School Fees: Expensive for private Uni, cos it is a private Uni, public uni not too expensive cos they are public Uni

11. Choice: You have a choice to go to, or send your kids to either a private or public uni depending on your resources and comparism of both.

12. The Makindes: The Makindes are not running Babcock Uni, there is something called a board in any organization. Decision making comes from there.

13. The Economy: The more expensive the economy gets the more money you pay in private universities.

14. Losing Virginity: You lose virginity both in private and public Uni, no one put a gun on your head to open your legs (Slut!!!)

15. Job search: It is the same battle ground for Private and public Uni grads, I believe private Uni should have better arrangements in reference to this (Why pay that much and still hustle in the labor market). Though the economy we live in now is about who U know and not what you know or the school you went to.

16. Comments: You have 100% right to voice out your opinion (be it right or wrong) on this forum. But cussing out and swearing on a public forum says a lot about you and your level of reasoning.

17. Protests in Babcock: There is absolutely no harm in the student body coming together or even the parents coming together and have a dialogue with the school admin in ref to the price increase.

well, i graduated from babcock uni 2008. i have worked 5 years now, and i am still withing entry level age. can you acheive that in oau or whateva?ul see undergraduate at 26years strikes,cultism when you graduate youve passed the age even in 2years i would stil be .why wont it be difficult to get a job after graduating at 27 from a state and fedral university. you are obviously there because u cant afford the privates so no beefing. these school fees were increased whilst the student are already in school no one would tell you that in 2years your school fees would be 3mil

And hey, to the guy saying girls do abortion and loose their virginity, every one choose their part.they might not want to read and understand so they do all sort to pass. dosnt mean thats the way so shut your mouth. parents who truely love their kids would do anything to secure them and thats what you get in a private uni.''GET THAT''? can you give me a clue to when you are graduating? ''NO'' so sad.

well it has happend school fees increased can never be reversed. most parent had so much money as at when their kids got the admission and from their calculation they could afford it,sometimes the chips get down and this increment was not part of the plan.so they can react. kids are the greatest asset and the best form of investment is giving them the best environment to study and be safe thats why the priv uni are there. but il rather get a school abroad than pay that money cos i can assure you that there are schools in canada that charge this amount.

in life you either spend more money or spend time. u'l be a fool to spend both.

2)No1 compelled u 2 go 2 Babcock so if you can't afford d fees or u're upset abt it, pls take a hike 2 Maulag, Yabatech, Unilorin. Dem plenty sef. Very affordable
3) This issue is not a general issue cos BU is a PRIVATE university so all dose retards commentin abt d skl in d negative, that u weren't opportuned 2 go their doesn't give u d right 2 open ur mouth and pour crap out of it. If u're nt a stakeholder (as in Alumni, Student or Parent), Pls Shut up. Okbye.

This is what you get when a govt is not responsible and responsive. A good measure of those who run our govt are products of public schools; and they have succeeded in killing public schools,from primary to university level. Shameful.

This is simply ridiculous! To my mind, some people go to private unis to avoid strike, while most people go because they can't pass jamb. My neice gained admission into Covenant with a very low jamb score. I am a lawyer and i graduated from OAU. In the history of the Law School till date, Govt schools produce the best students especially the first generation schools. Igbinedion is the only private Uni that has ever produced a First Class from Law Sch (2006). If you check, Igbinedion is not been run like the others. If the private schs'standard was so high why are they not performing well? A uni is for adult, why should student still be treated like babies? It's so messed up and it's a pity! I'll choose my OAU over and over again!
