From losing admission to a UK graduate

In a TikTok post, Ifiokobong shared some school documents and emails, inspiring netizens with her success story.

She said she was given a direct entry admission to study nursing in November 2019 and resumed school in UNN in 2020.

Ifiokobong's department would later be changed with the explanation that UNN admitted more than their quota. The school could not resolve the issue.

Ifiokobong said she then applied to study at the University of Derby, sat for the necessary exams and was given admission.

In May 2024, she finished from the UK varsity.

"It didn’t end always be open to every opportunity that would be a life changer. Learn to unlearn, relearn and learn. At first, it was hard navigating as a new immigrant, but I’m almost done with this new degree, and I can say that I am evolving everyday."
