FOREIGN CREDENTIALS DISCRIMINATION

The European-American University Affiliated Campuses in Nigeria offer tuition to prospective students leading to the award of Diploma, Bachelor, Master and Doctorate/P.HD degrees in Arts and  Management Courses both at the Study Center and online since 2017.

For your information, the Nigerian Universities Commission (NUC) does not have the legal right to approve foreign Universities  Affiliated Campuses for their degrees to be recognized in Nigeria except Nigerian Universities and their Affiliated Campuses operating in Nigeria and not foreign Universities Affiliated Campuses based on UNESCO'S rules (except on joint venture basis with Nigerian partners to award Nigerian Degrees)  provided, foreign degrees are produced in the foreign University's country of origin and not to be duplicated through her Affiliated Campuses in Nigeria without NUC approval of which list of illegal Universities  and Affiliated Campuses was published by NUC excluding the European-American University since 2018 as her degrees are produced in her county of origin and not in Nigeria except Certificates and Diplomas to be produced by her Affiliated Campuses in Nigeria under the foreign University's Affiliation in accordance with UNESCO's Rules.

UNIVERSITY OF LONDON STUDY CENTERS 

Conseqently, even the University of London  Study Centers all over Nigeria, does not require to be approved by NUC  in Nigeria for her degree to be recognized provided she had been legally approved in the U.K as her country of origin like the European-American University approved by the Government of France and Uganda (Africa Regional Headquarters) to award degrees to overseas students which does not require NUC approval in Nigeria and as applicable to all foreign universities except on joint venture basis with Nigerian partners to award Nigerian degrees in accordance with NUC rules based on the Nigerian laws.

 ChatGPT SEARCH RESULTS 

According to chatGPT result regarding the issues of University of London STUDY CENTERS Approval in Nigeria same as applicable to all foreign universities and including the European-American University Study Centers in Nigeria  stated as follows:-

Here’s the current situation regarding the National Universities Commission (NUC) and University of London programmes or campuses in Nigeria 

📌 1. University of London Does Not Have an Official Stand-Alone Campus in Nigeria

The *University of London itself does not currently operate an accredited branch campus in Nigeria licensed by the NUC.

What does exist are recognized teaching centres in Nigeria where students can take University of London International Programmes — these are not the same as an official University of London campus with degree-awarding powers inside Nigeria. 

University of London

This means that while you can study University of London programmes locally, the physical teaching centres aren’t standalone campuses owned and run by the University of London.

📌 2. Recognized Teaching Centres vs. Licensed Universities

The University of London lists local Nigerian teaching centres where students get support face-to-face while enrolled in its programmes (distance/online delivery). 

University of London

These teaching centres must not be confused with formally accredited branch campuses recognized by the NUC as independent universities.

📌 3. NUC’s Position on Foreign Campus Operations

Recently, the NUC lifted a long-standing ban on foreign universities establishing campuses in Nigeria and introduced guidelines to allow foreign institutions to enter the Nigerian higher education system in several modes (e.g., branch campus, franchise, twinning, distance learning).

However, approval must be granted by the NUC before any foreign university (including UK institutions) can establish a licensed campus in Nigeria.

There is no evidence currently that the University of London has received such NUC approval to set up a formal campus awarding UoL degrees independently within Nigeria.

The aforementioned information indicates the difference between NUC fully licensed Study Campus to award Nigerian degrees and independent Study Center which cannot award degrees but providing tuition leading to the award of Degree directly from the foreign University country of origin which is licensed to award degrees to students in foreign countries.

However, it is at the discretion of the foreign University authorities to establish a foreign campus to become fully Licensed by  NUC of Nigeria to award Nigerian degrees locally provided it is in conformity with UNESCO's Rules.

FOREIGN CREDENTIALS DISCRIMINATION 

Certificates, Diplomas and Degrees of the same course from all nations do not have the same academic value both for study advancement and on the job market specially in the Western nations where credentials discrimination abound based on academic standard comparability,  social infrastructures and scientific advancements as evident in some of the Nigerian graduates travel to abroad with their  credentials only to start all over again based on academic standard differences. 

Based on this development, UNESCO had set up Committee in order to reduce the high rate of foreign credentials discrimination among member nations.

Evidently,  most Nigerian politicians prefer foreign credentials in order to please their foreign political counterparts and international jobs engagement. Based on this development, Nigerian graduates are advised to have both Nigerian and foreign credentials for a blend in case of political and international engagement in the digital world as a global village.

THE INCOMPARABILITY BETWEEN THE AFRICAN AND WESTERN UNIVERSITIES DEGREES

 It is  necessary to acknowledge the fact that all universities degrees are not equal in terms of academic value based on the quality  of individual nation’s human capital and infrastructural development and coupled with her socio-economic and scientific   advancement.

Consequently, countries are grouped into three major categories by the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) also known as G7 member nations which are: Developed, Developing and Least Developed nations. 

Based on this development, individual donation to multilateral organizations by member nation’s category such as the World Bank and United Nations agencies varies from one country to another depending on individual national Gross Domestic Products (GDP) and in the same vein, development aids packages and loan repayment terms and conditions from the Word Bank and other multilateral financial institutions are based on individual nation’s category. 

Consequently, the standard of education is much dependent on the category individual nation belongs in terms of socio-economic and scientific advancement which is being evident in their individual national GDP and to be reflected on her tertiary institutions enhancing the provision of qualified graduates for effective service delivery to the benefit of her entire citizenry.  

Evidently, a Medical Professional with a Bachelor Degree from  African University cannot have the same academic value with a Bachelor Degree Holder in the same discipline either in the United States of America or in any other advanced country because he or she was trained along side with the Advanced State- of- the -Arts -Facilities  either in the United States or any of  advanced countries which is not available in the Nigerian tertiary institutions with far lesser socio-economic and scientific advancement quite incomparable to the United States and other advanced countries. Evidently, most patients are flown to abroad for diagnostics as recommended by the Nigerian Medical Doctors due to the unavailability of the required facilities.

 Similarly, an African Bachelor Degree Holder in Secretariat Administration would use a manual typewriter when computer technology is not yet introduced in the African country's University as oppose to U.S Bachelor Degree Graduate in Secretariat Administration who is already endowed with computer technology as the fundamental technical requirement in Secretariat studies. 

Consequently, the African Graduates would start all over again from the Diploma level in the United States even though both of them are First Class Bachelor Degree  holders  from the African Universities.

In terms of University -to- University's Affiliation, not all the courses would be acceptable due to the unavailability of the required facilities in the African university unless they come over to the United States for studies beginning at the foundation level and depending on the course involved.

 Consequently, the Western Advanced Countries have far less regard for degrees from developing and least developed nations across the globe due to their poor academic standard but have regard for degrees awarded by Western Universities instead except from South Africa due to white minority dominance as Lecturers  in the tertiary institutions and endowed with advanced social infrastructure and technological advancement and evidently, became the first African country to host the World Cup in 2010 having the State- of- the- Arts- facilities on ground quite unlike other African nation.

Evidently, UNESCO had set up Committee whose duty is to reduce unnecessary Credentials discrimination based on academic standard comparability among her member nations.

 Based on  this development, the European-American University Degree awards become the best alternative to most  Africans both home  and abroad either for study advancement  or seeking for employment abroad and also for Remote Job opportunities (known as online Freelance jobs] without discrimination due to Western discrimination towards African degrees except through University-to-University Affiliation on certain courses in line with the Western University's Curriculum.

The Management Consulting Institutes

 

The  Institute of Management Consultants of Nigeria recognized by the Federal Government of Nigeria is  a Member of the International Council of Management Consulting  Institutes (IMCI) whose Corporate Headquarters is in the United States of America with Members  all over the world, providing training to Government Officials, University Authorities and other Tertiary Institutions and individuals at all levels in the academic and professional spectrum and are not within  the scope of the  traditional campus based Primary, Secondary and University institutions to be approved by the Ministry of Education with independent buildings and classrooms, equipped with the state-of the Art facilities as parameters; in most cases, such requirement  does not apply to the Management Consulting Institutes aside from registration with the Corporate Affairs Commission and professional Membership either as Corporate body or as Individual quite unlike the aforementioned traditional campus based institutions. 

The Management Consultants and other professionals are mobile in their operations quite unlike the campus based institutions with regular classroom routine works. Those professional bodies work  in partnership with the traditional institutions approved by the Ministry of Education as training Consultants.

Evidently, during the COVID 19 Survival Fund Grant Awards, only the Staff of the Management Consulting Institutes were paid and not in the name of the institutes; but the traditional institutions approved by the Ministry of Education were paid both in the name of the institution and in the name of individual staff to make the difference like the case of Delcan Distance Learning Consult (as division of G. Delcan International Services).

 As Consultants, they are given greater autonomy to provide training to those  officials in the Ministry of Education including the formulation and preparation of the Educational Curriculum at all levels (Primary, Secondary, Polytechnics,  University and other tertiary institutions) and the required State of the Art facilities based on the current world trend  and including  Staff and Management of the Nigerian Universities Commission (NUC) assigned for the Assessment and Evaluation  of the required academic standard of the Universities and other tertiary institutions in collaboration with foreign Experts most preferably from the Advanced Countries based on individual area of expertise.

They are guided by international Legal Advisers who are also Members of the aforementioned professional body in the discharge of individual's professional obligation at all levels.

 Association with Management Consulting Institutes

One of the Prior Approval Guidelines given by the Federal Ministry of Education is the Incorporation of the traditional Institution with the Corporate Affairs Commission of Nigeria  as a Limited Lability Entity,  to be given  the right to form Association or Partnership with any organization as stipulated in the Memorandum and Article of Association by the Corporate Affairs Commission of Nigeria. 

Consequently, private institutions Incorporated and Approved by the Ministry of Education could affiliate to a Management Consulting Institute for her own benefits as legitimate such as providing distance learning programme and other training related activities using her required facilities based on terms and condition agreed upon.      

Consequently, most Private Universities are accredited by several professional organizations aside from government accreditation especially if she had been granted Chartered status as an autonomous institution exempted from regular assessment and evaluation checks by the educational authorities.

Individual Membership Qualification

Members of professional bodies are automatically accredited depending on their area of expertise and not necessarily the qualification of individual membership grade level. Take as example, if the government requires the service of a Management Consulting firm, may first of all request from the Association as to ensure that the Consultant is a member of a recognized professional body that can provide the service.

The Association would check from the list of registered Consultants that had the technical know-how in that field which she would recommend to the Government officials. At this point, qualification and grade level of membership may not apply in most cases based on the fact that most Consultants only had the technical experience and not the academic qualification and taking into consideration the “ Accreditation of Prior Learning Experience Award” endorsed by UNESCO. In most cases, those with the conventional University degrees cannot provide the service but a member of very lower qualification that already had the technical know-how in that field who had never studied in the classroom but already had been accredited of his or her expertise being a member of a recognized professional body would be recommended.

Take as an example, if a Government official car having a technical hitch along the road, the driver may temporary employ a roadside mechanic who had the tools and technical skill already to rectify the fault in the engine and pay him if he does the job successfully. The Government official does not request for the qualification of the technician before he handles the Government official car likewise in most government offices.

Consequently, it becomes very necessary to become a member in any recognized professional body of your career in order to boost your professional expertise and paying quarterly or yearly membership fees depending on your grade level of membership in the Association.

Based on this development, most private Universities are accredited by several professional organizations across the globe like the European-American University. Such accreditation also extend to her graduates across the globe for their recognition in their various filed of expertise as graduates from  accredited  Universities specially as one of the Universities awarding the Certificates, Diploma and Degrees based on the Accreditation of Prior Learning Assessment  Awards as endorsed by UNESCO.          

 

  

 

Comparability Standard Validation

 

Comparability Standard Validation involves the academic assessment and evaluation of a whole University's establishment regarding its suitability to award degrees in accordance with the academic standard required by the Government's Accrediting Agency such as the Nigerian Universities Commission(NUC) of the Ministry of Education before awarding Degrees in accordance with Nigerian laws.

On the international scene, such function is being performed by the University of California FCA and several other professional bodies around the world of which WES of Canada is the famous among them.

This also includes the assessment and evaluation of the Certificate, Diploma and Degrees awarded by any tertiary institution to a student applying for admission into the University of another country.

The Academic Assessment and Evaluation Experts would carry on their investigation regarding the educational standard of the country, the University's facilities, Curriculum and the student's academic performance to compare with the foreign country educational standard and the Curriculum of the University the student wish to study.

This comparability assessment and evaluation exercise will result in determining the academic equivalence of the student's current academic qualification before gaining admission into the foreign University.

 In most cases, based on the equivalent result, the Bachelor Degree could either be downgraded to an Ordinary Diploma status in line with the academic standard of the University the student is applying for admission or may be exempted from part of the programme on gaining the Admission before advancing to Master's Degree programme.

Accreditation of Prior Learning And Experience Award

This form of validation requires the assessment and evaluation of an Applicant who had not received any form of formal education but very passionate to acquire either Diploma or Degree but seems impossible due to poor academic background. Take as an example, he or she is an expert in hotel management business without any academic or professional qualification in that field. This type of validation is known as "Accreditation of Prior Learning and Experience Award" based on UNESCO's rules.

On the other hand, it involves the evaluation and assessment of Individual's informal training and professional skills already acquired outside the Classroom studies and to be given the equivalent credit for direct admission into the tertiary institution either to begin from Level 100 or become exempted from part of Level 200 of the programme based on the evaluation and assessment result without passing through the normal Admission Procedure.

Consequently, like in France, there are two types of Graduates from tertiary Institutions. One is known as "Validation Des acquis de I,experience (VAE) which stand for "VALIDATION OF ACQUIRED EXPERIENCE". The other is to follow-up the required Procedure prior to admission; while the VAE model does not require University's Admission Procedure but any individual would be awarded either Diploma or Degree based on assessment and evaluation Result.

Based on this Development, the European-American University had been registered with the French Government based on the VAE Model Award for the evaluation and assessment of Prospective Applicant's Portfolio  either for Diploma or Degree Award dependent on the equivalent qualification  based on UNESCO rules as applicable in the United States and other parts of the world.

She awards Secular Degrees based on the VAE Model to her overseas graduates from France as the country of origin based on the fact that she is Tax Exempted in France recognized as one of the None Profit Organizations being a Religious University unlike in the United States where Tax Exemption is only for Religious Universities awarding Religious Degrees and not Secular Degrees.

As a matter of fact, she is the subsidiary of Western Orthodox University being her parent religious body. So she also maintains her religious status as None Profit Organization to award secular Degrees without Taxation.

Consequently, the University do establish her presence in other countries around the world wherever she would be Tax Exempted to award Secular Degrees in line with their Legislation in order to keep her fees affordable to the less privileged unlike other Institutions operating in higher Tax Rate Regions.

FOREIGN UNIVERSITIES VERIFICATION GUIDELINES

 Most Universities and professional organizations around the world operate under Charted Status upgraded from the Accredited Status in order to become an independent entity exempted from the regular performance, assessment and evaluation checklist like the University of London and several tertairy institutions around the world, specially the private universities whose cost of evaluation and performance  assessment checks and the related fees are not subsidized quite unlike the public or government owned universities like the University of London being one of the private Universities in the U.K under Chartered Status.  Vicent University Owerenta in Abia State is  one of those private Universities in Nigeria under Chartered Status.

Consequently it would be seen as though those Chartered Universities are not Accredited having been exempted from the list of Accredited Universities like the University of London and Several others in the U.K and around the world.

In another development, the names of foreign Universities are not included in the list of those indigenous Accredited or Chartered Universities in most countries due to the dichotomy existing between foreign Universities and the indigenous Universities in terms of prospective foreign students patronage seeking to gain admission into any of those Universities in the host countries whose names are  published in the official Database and websites; but excluding the foreign Universities which the host countries official would regard as rivary institutions and instead will promote their indigenous Universities; unless the foreign University is legally  registered and incorporated to operate as one of those indigenous Universities with local Investors as a joint venture and not One Hundred Percent foreign ownership.

Consequently, the European-American University was legally registered and incorporated in Uganda as a Chartered University in order to award her degrees to African students at an affordable cost whose fees could be higher lf she is incorporated under the Charter in the United States her country of origin with higher tax rates.

Being a foreign Chartered University, she is not included among the indigenous list of the Accredited or Chartered Universities based on the afforementioned development.

However, the Ministry of External Affairs in the host country will provide such list of both foreign Universities and foreign companies based on  the Bilateral Cooperation Agreement reached between both countries; such list could be accessible through the Embassy officials of the foreign University's country of origin in the host country and not through the Ministry of Education of the Host Country dealing with the indigenous Universities Database.

However, it is necessary to indicate the region (such as State, Province, Kingdom etc) the foreign University registered in the host country to enable the Embassy official in the host  country carry out their verification through the Ministry of External Affairs in accordance with your directive.

HOW THE UNIVERSITY OPERATES IN AFRICA

On the "Affiliated Campuses" of the European-American University's webpage reads:-

European-American University conducts no educational activities in Africa directly and no citizen of any African country is an employee or owner of the University. The University does not own or rent any form of premises in Africa, does not maintain any offshore campus or distance learning centre there, and is not part of any national system of education in any African country.

The above information implies that the University has given the authority to her international Partner's to treat any inquiry from prospective student within the African region; that the University will advise any  prospective student contacting them within the region to contact any of her Affiliated Campuses also known as "International Partners":directly which is indeed a welcome development. 

The information also indicated that the University is not part of any national system of education in any African country.

The above information takes the following analysis:-

ROYAL CHARTER

The University was Incorporated in Uganda under her Royal Charter making her becomes autonomus and independent from any Government Educational Authority in any part of the world in accordance with UNESCO's rules.

The Charter would have been done in any of those Advanced countries but she chooses any of the African countries to avoid high taxation in order to make her Secular Degrees affordable to prospective African Students being the  subsidiary of the Western Orthodox University founded since 1945 immediately after the Second World War.

Any Chartered institution becomes self accrediting and independent from the Ministry of Education's stringent policy  and rules like the University of London and others in the U.K and in other parts of the world. (Check Google search Results for more details).

BILATERAL AND MULTILERAL INSTITUTIONS

The aforementioned Institutions play significant role in the national educational sector regarding her manpower development, basic Educational infrastructure and technology transfer based on the Balateral and Multilateral Agreement signed with the host government by the aforementioned Institutions.

 This is however, Government -to- Government support  initiative and does not involve individual University directly: but  based on the national educational frame work through her Ministry of Education and her Accrediting Agency. Consequently, only the endigenous Government approved Universities would benefit from the scheme.

However, foreign University may be involved for her manpower development in the educational project through her Consultancy unit like the University of California FCA as Training Consultant involving the Staff of the Ministry of Education in the host country in order to operate her educational system effectively in conformity with international standard practices and in accordance with UNESCO's rules.

EDUCATIONAL JOINT VENTURE PARNERSHIP

Foreign Investors in the educational sector would cooperate with other educational investors in another country to establish a joint venture University. In which case, they must follow all the due process in line with the host government parameters relating to foreign joint venture establishment and in cooperation with the Ministry of Education through her Accrediting Agency like the Nigerian Universities Commission (NUC) of Nigeria and the California University FCA of the  United States in order to be qualified for Degree award.

Based on this development, Development Aid Agency had been established in most advanced countries with the purpose of technology transfer through joint venture partnership to the Developing and Least Developed countries as classified by the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Member Nations through project identification, Grants Award for pre-feasibility and feasibility studies on viable projects  that would be of Economic benefit to the host country and providing soft  loans with interest rate far below the conventional lending rates using Development Banks as intermediaries in the host country in which case, the Bilateral and Multilateral financial institutions become the key players.

However, it is not mandatory for every University on Earth  to operate as joint venture for her degree to be recognized in foreign countries. Educational joint venture establishment is based on individual's investor's initiative like  any other business venture.

Consequently, you do not expect every University to form joint ventures in foreign countries for her degrees to be recognized; so it also not applicable for any foreign University to form a joint venture in Nigeria for her degrees to be recognized.

Evidently, there are some thousands of government approved Universities around the world  that are not part of the Nigerian educational system yet their degrees are recognized in Nigeria provided they are verified by the National Youth Service Corps officials to award the NYSC Certificate as proof of recognition.

THE LIMITATIONS OF ONLINE  UNIVERSITY 

The Internet based institutions also known as On-line Universities are quite limited to the required basic  educational infrastructure and other relevant facilities on ground which are used as the main criteria for approval by the Ministry of Education as oppose to the campus based traditional Universities and other tertiary institutions.

Consequently, are automatically excemped from the Bilateral and Multilateral financial support initiative either directly or through the Joint Venture Partnership of the required basic facilities on ground as the basis for which the aforementioned financial support could have been made feasible.

Due to the increasing global Economic inflation, most Universities are going online back-up with sophisticated educational software including verious  forms of video conferencing and other online facilities bridging the gap between classroom and online studies. 

Aside from Engineering and advanced scientific courses that require personal contact, all other courses could be studying online limiting the cost intensiveness of the required basic facilities on ground, high cost of taxation, payment of dues to the Educational Authorities, high cost of labour wages and devoid of labour law infringement.

In the afamative, Lecturers are employed online locating remotely in any part of the world earning  far less  below the nationally approved minimum wage in the online University's country of origin.

Consequently,  operating Online University  is far more advantageous than campus based traditional University  which requires all the state of the art facilities on ground before approval by the Educational Authorities while it becomes irrelevant for the online University operation and would not require Bilateral and Multilateral financial support either directly or indirectly and cannot fit into the national Educational system within the African region and around the world like the European-American University; provided she had been legally approved to award her overseas degrees from her country of origin operating through the internet and through her Affiliated Campuses as every online operatives around the world in the digital age.

UNIVERSITY'S SUB-AFFILIATES: -REASONS WHY SOME GRADUATES DON'T RECEIVE THEIR DEGREES AFTER GRADUATION

 

Three types of Agents are involved in the field of Education. 

1) UNIVERSITY'S SATATLIATE CAMPUS

This Campus is run by the University as a branch. Students of this Campus pay their fees directly into the University's Bank Account while she pays the Management and Lecturers and including the lecture hall. It is possible  to get Degree Certificate after graduation unless students who are unable to pay all their fees. Young Secondary School Leavers may flood this Satellite Campus considering it to be branch of the University or other tertiary institution.

2).  DIRECT AFFILIATE

 This Agent is directly appointed by the University as their Affiliate to run a Campus on her behalf.

 The University don't pay the Agent directly but gives  fixed rates so low to enable the Affiliate add his commisiom unto  the fees (based on the prevailing exchange rate in case of foreign University) to be paid by students  on each Degree programme and must run under a  registered business name as an institution. The Affiliate must indicate the business name and also indicate  for example, " Affiliated to University of ................".

Earning a University Degree is quite possible based on the following factors:. Students pay school fees directly into the business name Bank account recognized by the Bank, while the bank pays directly into the University"s Bank account either in  Nigeria or in foreign country of  origin as Direct Affiliate of the University.

 At the same time, if the Direct Affiliate  runs short of cash due to administrative expenditures (involving payment of Lecturers wages and other related cost),  the bank can raise short term loans (known as "Account Receivable Loans") to complete payment of the total sum required on the behalf of the Direct Affiliate and pays the total sum per student directly into the University's Bank Account for graduating students who had already completed all payment for award of Degrees  and then detucting from the Affiliate Commission through fees paid by other students on a gradual basis whenever the need arises because the bank is benefiting from the transaction on short terms loans with interest and through remittance of payment into the University's bank account specially in remittance through foreign exchange to the overseas University being the Payment Processor of the Direct Affiliate. 

So the bank earns foreign exchange through remittance  of payment and   would give any financial support the Affiliate required being the Direct Affiliate of the University through her Account Receivable mechanism to her own advantage. 

The Bank and the Direct Affiliate would agree on how much to deduct from the commission added onto the fees to be paid by the students so that it does not affect the principal amount to be paid into the University bank Account  from the other students..

However,  it is important to note that this financial arrangement is only between the Bank and the Direct Affiliate and not on the behalf of the University whenever such case arises and may not be in every transaction with the bank specially if the students are very  promt in making their payment on the average.

List of Direct Affiliated Campus  are always published on the University's website and remain as Direct Affiliate even for more than Twenty Years by maintaining good relationship with the bank, the Students and the University. Evidently, list of Affiliated Campuses of the European-American are still there on her website  from 2008 till date because there is no complain of students not receiving their degrees after graduation and names of graduates are published on her website for global view to be verified by both tertiary institutions and employers.

3). SUB-AFFILIATE

 Sub-Affiliate is someone working for Direct Affiliate as Sub-Agent. It is very risky to enroll with Sub-Afffiliate  for Degree programme based on the following factors:-

The Sub-affiliate may not operate on a registered business name but rather would use the name of the University to create the impression that he or she is running the University's Satellite Campus and not as Affiliation in order to attract students to enrolled specially the Young Secondary School Levers, considering as Direct Admission into the main University.

He or she   bergains  with the Direct Affiliate of the University who may only offer  him 50 percent of the school fees paid by students. Out of the 50 percent, he pays Lecturers and  School hall. 

Due to delay in payment of school fees by most students, he latter found himself owning lecturers, the hall used and could not meet up other adminstrative cost required based on the 50 percent assigned to him from the Direct Affiliate.

He could not advise students to pay into the University bank account as a Satalite Campus  since he has no direct dealing  with the University; but rather collect payment in cash and issues receipts to students. He would not let the students be aware that he is working for another Agent as a Sub-affiliate.

 Even though he owns a business account with a bank, cannot give him any financial support based on the fact that he is not a Direct Affiliate of the University but rather as a Sub-affiliate and the bank dont involve in third party deals  because of the risk involve based on the fact that there is too limited cash flow from his business account as most students pays directly to him In cash and not into the  business account. The bank can not give loan to the Direct Affiliate he works with since he has no direct dealing with them if he approached the bank for financial support.

Consequently, after accumulated debts incurred,  he ended up close down the school and relocate with the monies paid by students and cannot receive their degrees after graduation because he is owning the University some huge sum of money to pay to the Direct Affiliate and the students cannot contact the Direct Affiliate because he has not disclose such Affiliate to them since from  the beginning and cannot contact the University who has no direct  business dealings with him.

So it is safer to enroll with Direct University Affiliate using registered business name recognized by the bank  to be collecting school fees and whose name is also published on the University's website as Direct  Affiliate. In case anything goes wrong they can easily verify from the University officials.

On  the other hand, the SUB-AFFILIATES  should only referring prospective students to the Direct Affiliate to be  making payment directly to him through his business bank account and be paying the Sub-Afffiliate some agreed commsions on students introduced who may engage in online learning or take the full responsibility of paying for  the Lecturers wages and other administrative cost of the sub-Afffiliated Campus and he operates as the Campus Manager  and not  to run it on percentage basis as an independent Campus which is very risky.

EXCLUSIVE AGENCY RIGHT

The University may appoint a Direct Affiliate giving the Exclusive Right covering the entire country and may involve several foreign countries. That means he would be the only Direct Agent to deal with prospective students within the specified country(ies) in the Exclusive Agency Agreement. The University would direct all inquires within those countries to the Direct Agent and  may appoint his Sub-Agent in any country he would work with on commission basis. 

Most Universities appoint Sole Agent with Exclusive Right because it reduses  the work load on them and including advert and other related expenditures in foreign countries.
