NUC has abolished the award of Pass Degree in Nigerian Universities
THE National Universities Commission (NUC) has abolished the award of Pass Degree in Nigerian Universities with effect from the 2013/ 2014 academic session. Prof Abdullahi Zuru, the Vice Chancellor of Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, disclosed this on Wednesday at the 2014/2015 matriculation of 4,133 students of the institution. ``This has far reaching implications on the grading system of students in universities. “This means that the minimum pass mark for courses in the universities will now be 45 per cent, that is, D-grade, instead of the previous 40 per cent which was E-grade. “It also means that the minimum class of degree to be earned by students will now be Third Class,” he said. According to him, no university student will henceforth graduate with a Pass Degree. He therefore enjoined the students to work hard to earn their stay in the university. The vice chancellor also advised them to shun extremism, bigotry, violence, ethnicity, political intolerance and religious prejudice.
Question: Do university graduates get jobs with a pass? Well, it means that every student need to work harder and get at least a 2:2 cos am not sure that one can get a job with even a 3rd class!
