What Government University affiliation means for you
Confirm directly with the institution which body awards the qualification and whether that award is recognised for the career you intend. Recognition, not campus quality, is the thing that is hardest to fix after you have enrolled.
Ask before you enrol
- Ask which body awards the certificate and confirm the affiliation is current.
- Confirm recognition for your intended career path before paying any fee.
- Visit the campus and speak to a final-year student without an admissions officer present.

Facilities
Facility lists are what institutions describe themselves as having. Treat them as a prompt for what to look at on a campus visit rather than as a verified inventory.
