  1. More students accepted at five Islands should be going to ABCAS instead. Tales of friend, company, family and constituency connections leading to acceptance at FIC are circulating. No surprise there. FIC is not a UWI campus but the University of Antigua bought and paid for by the people of Antigua and Barbuda.

    BTW way de pickneargah an dem school? When day getting back day school?

  2. FICUWI is University of the West Indies campus. Please stop spreading nonsense!!!!
    If you have issues with entry requirements, say that. If you have issues with student performance, say that. But Five island is UWI!!!

  4. Not unusual for a university to only have room for a certain number of persons. Perhaps the spaces will be increased with later expansions or different additional programmes since it would not be good to have too many persons in one industry. There are also other pathways persons can take in life via other institutions. As long as society offers a variety of options for the youth, all will be well. Best wishes to the new students.
