NOUN vs Foreign Online University: Which Is Best for My Computer Science Degree?

Good day, everyone. I’m in my early 30s, working full-time, and eager to study Computer Science. Retaking JAMB isn’t appealing at this stage, so I’m weighing two options: the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) or an accredited foreign online university. I already have some computing background. I’d love to hear from anyone with experience in these programs. How recognized are their certificates? What factors should I consider before enrolling? Are there other universities or pathways I should explore? Your advice and recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

Totally agree—flexible schedule tops the list, plus check the fees, tech requirements, and student support systems.

You're focusing on cost and accreditation only; don't forget to consider tech support and course pacing too.

It's tough to ignore how wildly online tuition rates differ, but accreditation and course quality can vary more than price suggests.

NOUN might feel familiar, but I wouldn't assume it delivers the same hands-on support that an accredited foreign online university promises.

Consider mapping your work schedule to course deadlines and check if foreign credits transfer back to Nigerian professional bodies before deciding.
