|In 1983: Total Foreign Students =700 (5.9%). 26.6% of these Students were Nigerians | | | | | | |
|In 2010: Total Foreign Students = 498 (3.7%). 8.8% of these Students were Nigerians. | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |FACTS:
I WANT MEMBERS OF THE PRESIDENT’S RESTRUCTURING COMMITTEE TO CAREFULLY REVIEW AND LOOK AT THE FIGURES ABOVE BEFORE THEY REJECT OR ACCEPT MY PROPOSAL I AM GOING TO BRING FORTH.
1. The above figures do not include foreign students who have attained permanent residency status. This means, the students contained in this list were/are those pay out-of-state fees.
2. Between 1979 and 1981, about 10.0% of FAMU’s 4, 500 student-bodies were foreign students. Due to some crisis in the Middle East and part of Africa during those periods, FAMU drastically relaxed its international student’s recruitment efforts from that time. At the same time, other colleges and Universities increased their resources towards international student’s recruitments. Not until recently, due to the effort of Rev. Jones that thing began to change.
3. Another fundamental mistake FAMU made during that period was the fact that the Late Dr. Combs (the then Director of International Admission) was moved from International Education Office to head Housing. This move put some clouds over FAMU’s international strategic efforts.
4. For most International students, by virtue of paying out-of-state fees cannot afford to waste time in schools (Most often finished their degree courses in 4-5 years at most. One can easily see the correlation between FAMU’s higher graduation rates in the 80s and 90s than what they are today.
5. Another Fact: The population of Nigeria is about 24% of the entire continent of Africa:
1. The Nigerian Universities (Public & Private) can only cater to about 65% of college ready students in the country
2. The average tuition fees at the Private Universities in Nigeria is similar to what is available in US
3. There more millionaires in Nigeria than more than any part of Africa.
4. More parents are capable and willing to educate their children at all cost.
Here are my Proposals:
In the light of this trying economic time for FAMU and for the fact that our able President James Ammons has articulated his desires and visions to put FAMU on international/global map, I am hereby offering my service (s) to assist him/FAMU in the following areas:
I know and realize that FAMU wants to globalize the institution. However, we (FAMU) must start from somewhere or from where the yield on ROI is greatest (look at the trend).
• I, Dr. Adai S. Ibrahim of the OIR want to be FAMU’s Recruitment “Foot-Soldier” in Nigeria.
• Traveling and/ or conversing the entire 36 states of Nigeria propagating the programs and services to targeted high schools, professional associations, parents’ associations, teachers colleges, and other colleges and universities in the country.
• Since 1973 over 1,800 Nigerians have graduated from FAMU and most are back in Nigeria. These potential alumni are holding some key positions in local, state, and Federal governments. I have already initiated the possibility of forming the FAMU Alumni Association of Nigeria with some.
Recruitment Criteria (How?):
• Targeting students with academic potentials, have high Test Scores/GPA scores, and have proven resources to pay out-of-state fees
• Will encourage The FAMU Alumni Association of Nigeria (FAAN) to provide financial assistance to some students with GREAT potential but lack the necessary financial support**. (**: As long as FAMU will allow such needy students to pay in-state fees).
• Selected students who have met all academic requirements/criteria to be admitted, should be issued only a tentative admission letters stating that their final admission letters will be issued pending that time when they have made an advanced deposit to the school. This deposit may be equal or greater than the estimated first year costs.
• Dr. Ibrahim shall be able to recruit at least 75 students in the first year, and/or 100 more annually the year after.
• FAMU shall be responsible for Dr. Ibrahim’s annual salary for the entire period is on this mission (payment shall be based on quarterly basis).
• NOTE: CONSERVATIVELY, THIS INITIATIVE CAN YEILD AN ESTIMATED $1,600,000 ANNUALLY TO FAMU.
I am humbly waiting to hear your response by January 12, 2011
Adai S. Ibrahim, PhD.
