University admission is the optimum dream of many Nigerian students, but most of them fails to understand the simple steps and tips needed to make that dream a reality. There is no magic in gaining admission into the various Nigerian Universities, but it will definitely look like magic if you follow the simple tips outlined here.

So, what should you keep in mind while preparing for a university admission? That is the question we are going to be answering here in the next few paragraphs. I huge you to read up every sentence in this post to have a concrete view of the subject matter.

1. KNOW YOUR ABILITY
As a student, you know what you want in life and what you wish to achieve. You are the architect of your life, so it will be improper to put the blame of your failures on someone else. You know yourself better than anybody else. You know what you can do and what you cannot do. So, in your preparation for admission, you should know yourself properly.

2. CHOOSE WISELY
Choose a University base on passion and value. Choose a Nigerian University that you think will suit your needs and leave you asking no silly question about your abilities and potentials. A University that worked for Mr.A might be a hell for Mr. B. The moment you recognize this, then you are one or two steps in getting that University admission that you crave for.

3. MAKE A STUDY TIME TABLE
As a prospective student, you should know that you cannot succeed in your quest of gaining admission without putting out some of your time to study. Even the Bible made it so clear "study to show you approved unto the Lord". Let that brain of yours be strained a little. Do not waste your time on non-profitable things. Get someone to motivate and inspire you to study if you find it difficult to study.

4. GET THE RIGHT STUDY MATERIALS
You know what text books or materials you can use for your preparation. If you know these books or materials can really help you succeed in you university admission struggle, please use them and see them as your weapon in this battle. Crave for knowledge and never have you get tired of it. Seek knowledge as you seek breathe and see yourself cruising your way into that institution of your choice, studying that course you applied for.

5. ATTEND TUTORIALS IF YOU WANT
You can attend tutorials when your ability is not equal to your choice of course and institution of higher education. What I mean is that, some courses demand more from the prospective student. When this is the case i.e. when the demand for your choice of course is higher than your ability, then you need to attend tutorials to make you fit for that particular high ability demanding course.

6. SEE YOURSELF AS A STUDENT
One thing that will make you succeed in your admission struggle is to always see yourself as a student of that institution, studying that course you applied for. Dream and imagine yourself receiving lectures and running to the admission office for your clearance. Never have you looked down on yourself. Never have you accept failure as an answer or as an option. See yourself at the top.

7. NEVER FORGET THE GOD FACTOR
In seeking for University admission in Nigerian Universities, allot of things are bound to happen which might not be pleasant to your course of admission seeking. God is everything, the moment you forget that, that is when you start failing. You have to know that you cannot do without God. It is not by your power neither is it by your might, but it is all by the special grace of God. Never have you take any pleasure in feeling as if you are untouchable, because without God your intelligent and money are like the chaff of a burnt leaf that can be blown away by any slight wind that comes by. Commit your University admission into His hands and wait to see if He ever fails.
