This decision was made known by the Vice Chancellor of the Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, Prof. Abdullahi Zuru during the school's 2014/2015 matriculation ceremony which held yesterday February 4th in Sokoto.
According to Prof Zuru, the grading system of students in the universities has changed.
“What this means is 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 while the minimum class of grade to be earned by the students will be now be Third Class,” he said.

Awww Congrat to them.
Duh, who cares?
Thank God am through with school. Lecturers have been given upper hand to deal with students.
Will this make students more serious?? I don't think so...

***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***

NUC...making grade easier since 1962
Hmmm
Ghenghen. Dat 1 sef dey. #happythurs
i hope they can keep this up
That means more hardworking for the students.
loozzzzz...And wen a students does extremely poor academically wat happens??? The student will be given let my pple go third class
Moye says so via BB Passport...Courtesy LIB.....
Good! No more allowance for mediocrity!
Its good. How can a student pass through a university for 4-6 yrs and come out with a thirdclass talkmore of a pass.
atlst inform of encouragement
Lmao ... now so many students wont graduate on time as to reduce the amount of graduates being produced by universities yearly which in turns leads to reduction of mass unemployment. uhmmm
Hmmmm...third class.
Hmm okay but they should at least give certificate of attendance coz at all at all na im bad pass
About time. But happens to those that couldn't get the Third Class grade? Will they spill over or withdrawn?

Good,but i don graduate..
I read about that yesterday. Serious work don catch lazy students for school.
Busy Fingers.
Before!!!! it was really useless issuing that certificate out..
These dudes are just stupid. Instead of attacking the main issues affecting our University education system, the retards are busy drinkin pap n cancellin Pass.
skuls re now upgrading, by his grace we wil stil mak t, Amen.
Nigeria educational sys aw market?....so no more E...only ABCD...nice sha...but they should equally ask the lecturers to stop asking 4 sex inexchange for marks...let we all work harder and earn the mark ourselves...

2013/2014 session? Oh well, students would read harder I guess.
Good Iniative
This has started in aau long ago nw, its now dey re startin it nationwide... well sha, it's a welcome development...
What difference does it make?
Well let's hp is for the best...
That's good!
Don't thin is d right move. @Felix
Very good ....will raise the standard. I'm a PG student in an Asian country.Minimum pass mark in my school is 60%. Anything below is a carryover. Don't know about other schools over here. I had to work extra to meet up since the grading system was quite stringent compared to my undergraduate.
Better for the students really because coming out with a 3rd class, not to even mention a pass is not good for the student's future. They would end up suffering more, employers don't want a 3rd class. Students will now feel the need to buckle up. Imagine some university graduates can't speak or write proper ENglish. Who knows, this may help to improve the crop of students our universities are churning out these days!
Jeez! I pity 4 d olodos
Nigeria and there educational system never cease to amaze me.
Ok seen
Good...our children need to read their books
Noted
OK
OKORO UPGRADED **
Wonderful, this news will officially kill some people o!
Choi! I saw a guy with a CGPA of 1.16 recently, I guess he should count himself lucky then.
That's progress..
Mmm ok
Welcome development

Good ... verey good let those dullards get serious
Congrat ke?
I bet u graduated with a pass. I see it as a good way to make students study harder. Bearing in mind that a third class is 50%, else they won't graduate. Bcuz doing MSc outside Africa, in the UK mostly, if u get a score less than 50% , u have failed. In order to graduate, all ur scores must b above 50%. This news is a good development .
oh well.. it'll make people study a lil harder
Read b4 u comment, mallam. What are u congratulating them for again pls?
Lol
heeehhheehh
Abi
It won't work no b cause
Ok noted. I thank God I graduated with a 2nd class upper. Now after all d stress of reading and having good grades, are graduates actually compensated for their hard work? Where are the jobs? The rate of unemployment is so alarming, students are not encouraged anymore. I've seen pple who graduated wt just a pass, in top positions. They are even bosses to d ones wt first class. I'm not against d decision of d NUC. But my question is, to wat end? Students will become more serious and graduate with good grades, ok. What happens next? Roaming d streets without jobs, no capital to start their own businesses. As a nation, we've not gotten there, and I don't see us getting there in 50yrs. It's not a curse. As long as selfishness remains in d hearts of our leaders, Nigeria can't move forward. I wish d students the best!!!
Ds requires more hardwork on students part

@Jamea Udosen, I will soon be an MBA holder because I have learnt not to give up or stop believing in myself particularly when people like you utter stupid comments like that. I graduated with a PASS grade. Eventually, I realised my mistake but held on to my dream of becoming a great woman that the world will reckon with, I have worked and even had to change juicy jobs with this same grade. Need I add that I didn't have to sleep with anyone to get these jobs. Finally, I decided to develop myself and further my education and will compete soonest with other MBA holders. Today I can proudly say I own one outstanding company and more to come.
150% in support of this....
Don't assume that all the students who graduated with a PASS grade is an olodo. Ask them their own story Period!!!!
So, who nor read write anything go get wetin? 45? Or dem go drive am comot school?
So speaking proper English is by grade attained huh ? Dumb chiq
Greatest Danfodites you are awarded certificate in character and learning. Udus is one University i am proud i graduated from no nonsense.
Like seriously, lol. 'Let my people go' wey we dey manage for some really tough courses, God dey sha
Aboki.. u only hustling for 1st to comment... we stil dy 1st week so always take ur time to read #okbye#
Seriously dnt tink it's d best way to go. Though I graduated with a gud result. That E mark made me not stay extra year for two courses that we hand horrible lectures in then. Make them think well. Everybody aint dsame
It's true,its bn effective in Lasu since last year
That E dey help at times o!
Same was done in Covenant University about 10 years ago, tough but students will survive (with hard work)
