Conducive learning structure
I would recommend the university because it is a conducive space for learning, the lecturers are dedicated, I can say we have one of the best library in the state, and also there is a good relationship between students and lecturers
Affordable But Low Spirit
A great school to attain your AA and if you plan on doing graduate studies, your BA. Low cost, but do not come here looking for fun, parties or that college life you heard about in high school. It is not here. There is a decent amount of course options, but not enough. Once you get into a Bachelors' program, there is only one advisor assigned to you program and it takes 2+ weeks to get a meeting with them when you need help. Terrible.
Fast Growing but at what cost
My University although still a very young school as compared to others, nevertheless is a fast growing one as we have developed from a 5 faculty University when I gained admission to over 10 faculties. I would however say that with the geometric increase in population comes the overwhelming ability for the school's educational facilities to cope with the demands. Results are often delayed almost two semesters later which can be quite tricky for students. There isn't ready accomodations to cater for the large number of students. And the lecture halls and Laboratories are usually too small to carry the Large numbers.
