Compared to what such a program costs in the diaspora, these prices are too good to pass up.

In addition there are time limits, so with diligent work, at least you have an idea of how long you'll be in the program:

"The Doctorate degree in all Schools shall extend over a period of at least three (3) years from the date of registration for a candidate studying full-time. Part-time candidates shall be registered for a minimum of four (4) years, except that under special cases the Graduate School may recommend to Senate that the candidate may submit the thesis after three (3) years.

No candidate for Ph.D degree shall be registered as a full-time student for more than four years or a part-time student for more than six (6) years.

Maximum period of study may be extended for no longer than nine (9) months and twelve (12) months for full-time and part-time Ph.D candidates respectively, unless under special circumstances."

Best,

Hill

PhDs are great! if you have the time and motivation and passion for the field - go for it! its not for getting a job...its about stretching yourself, doing exploits, contributing to society. lets face it, going through a PhD program (intellectually) puts you ahead of everyone - its a feeling money cannot buy...the person who buys a Phd Knows he bought it...but the one who earned it...knows he earned it! Its plainly excellence.
I equate academic excellence to other forms of excellence that no one can take from you (including yourself), excellence in sports, excellence in oration and making a tonne of money legally and with integrity - its very satisfying (remember the only one person you need to convince that you have what it takes is - you)

diaspora ni wapi?
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
