I made this an open letter because I was sure that, if I had sent this to the school's email address it wouldn't be read and also for Nigeria to see what mediocre school unilorin is.
In this years jamb, unilorin had the highest applicants, having about 100,000 jambites registering the school as their school of choice out of which 77,000 had above 180 and the school was to admit a quota of about 7,800. Other federal universities had higher numbers of applicants compared to their previous years, which forced these schools to increase their jamb cut offs, making their least acceptable jamb score 200, while unilorin, the school with the highest number of applicants, in a bid to STEAL, left theirs at 180, Knowing they would admit only about 10% of the total.
The putme exams were scheduled to august, I did fairly good having 6*% in the putme and also did well in jamb with 23* as my aggregate, having passed my waec in one sitting, I applied for mechanical engineering which I was fully qualified for the course, which 200 was its stated cut off.
October which was scheduled to be the resuming month of the school's calendar was disrupted because the school had not release the admission list, university of Ibadan, that held her exams late, released her list before unilorin, and I mean list that contained the names of those admitted and the various cut offs for their various courses, not just a message alert like unilorin gives in order to hide their corrupt ways.
So the list was finally released and to my surprise I didn't receive any text, so did those who scored higher than I did, and some of those who received didn't even score as much as I did, do you know how I felt when I came online and found out that someone who scored 189 and 42% in his jamb and putme respectively and was admitted to study electrical and electronics engineering?, he didn't even meet up with the jamb cut off of the course. I remember when I went to write your putme and the students were saying "if you score 98% and you don't "know someone", your admission is not guaranteed", I thought they were joking. So I was denied admission because I didn't "know someone", let's even say what I heard online was just rumour, let me tell you of the one I know firsthand, I know a guy who applied for medicine and had 211 in his jamb and 5*% in putme he changed course ( additional money to that one), and changing course slims your chances of getting admitted for that course and even getting admitted for any other course, but he knew "someone" and he was amongst those who got admitted with the first list. All my hope was on the second list, the delay of the first list didn't make second options available, all other registrations were closed and through.
Three weeks has passed that freshers are receiving lectures and they were being rushed and still, no sign of second list, how do you expect those at home still waiting, to meet up?, so yesterday the second "list" was released and I didn't receive any message. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY NIGHTS I FORFEITED SLEEP TO READ?, DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TI START AFRESH?, DO YOU KNOW HOW FRUSTRATED I AM?, DO YOU KNOW HOW ANGRY AND SAD I AM?, CAN YOU PHANTOM WHAT THAT ONE YEAR WOULDCOST ME?, DO YOU KNOW THE NUMBER OF SLEEPLES NIGHTS MY MUM HAD, PRAYING FOR ME?, should we even be praying that hard for admission if your process was true and clean, you wasted our time and efforts, robbed us of our money and hope, and I hope the unilorin management is rewarded accordingly ( it's a prayer, for those who are good). Those who were given admission yesterday were give courses not related to what they applied for and they deserved what they chose, like the one who was given home economics and food sciences, a course he has no passion for, do you know how that affects a student?, he wouldn't want to forfeit the admission and risk not getting admission the following year.
If truly unilorin is one of the best universities in Nigeria, then I am sorry for Nigeria's standard of education. My sole purpose of writing letter is not for you to right your wrongs ( you can never do that), it's for those who wish to apply and do not "know someone" , to look elsewhere for admission.
Nigeria is where it is today because of theft and corruption, which unilorin has displayed to be pros in, and truly unilorin is the better by far university....... Better by far in corruption.
Yours faithfully
I hate UNILORIN
