INFORMATION FOR NEW STUDENTS

 


Once a student has been offered admission into any of the programmes, the next exercise is to become a bonafide student of the University. This involves taking a number of steps which are  

sequentially described below.

 

Orientation Programme

 

This is designed to help new intakes become familiar with the overall  University environment considering the fact that this mode of study  

is different from their previous study approach. Again, the exercise  will help them know and locate the first contact points and register for courses of study. The rules, regulations and administrative set up  

of the University will be made known to them. Students are  

introduced to use of University facilities, lines of communication,  teaching staff and learner support services to make their transition as  

smooth as possible.

 

New Students who are Wrongly Admitted into a  Programme

 

If a new student is wrongly admitted to a programme, such a student  should lay his/her complaint in writing through the Director to  MIS/ICT Administrative Officer.

 

Programme Duration

 

All the undergraduate programmes in the faculty are structured to run  for a minimum of four years and a maximum of eight years for  

students starting at 100 level or a minimum of three years and a maximum of six years for students at 200 level.

 

Prerequisite Course

 

This refers to any course which must be passed before a student  would be allowed to register for certain specified courses at a higher  level. It is expected that students who did not pass a prerequisite  course but have obtained an acceptable level of achievement (decided  

by Senate) can be allowed to register concurrently for the prerequisite  course failed with the higher level course.

 

Registration Procedure

 

Registration processes in National Open University of Nigeria are  treated with utmost seriousness. Without proper registration and documentation, one cannot become a bona fide student of the University. Registration for courses and examinations by both fresh  

And returning students take place at the study centers where  applicants’ certificates are thoroughly screened. The registration exercise shall not exceed four weeks, after which the course  registration portal closes. However, examination registration can continue for another four weeks after which the portal will close for the semester.

 

Opening and Closing of the Registration Portal

 

The registration portal is usually opened at the start of a new semester  and closes four weeks after for course registration and eight weeks  

after for examination registration.

 

Course Re-Registration

 

Course registration is done online on the University’s registration  portal at www.nouonline.net. You are expected to register your courses  after you must have completed necessary payments for the semester

The course registration portal contains the list of all courses  

offered in each programme. You are expected to register for a  minimum of 10 credit units and a maximum of 24 credit units  per semester and which must include a minimum of one (1)  elective course per semester. You are also allowed to register a  maximum of 24 credit units where you have carried over  courses from the previous semesters.

 

Add and/or Drop Courses

 

In the process of registration, a student for one reason or the other  may decide not to take a course already registered for. Such a student  is allowed to drop the course and add (replace) it with any other  

course for the same amount of registration fee. This must be done  within the registration period for that semester.

 

Eligibility for Graduation:

 

 Minimum Course Credits  for Graduation 

To be awarded a degree in the faculty, a student would have to pass a  minimum of 120 and 90 credit units for the four year and three year  programmes respectively. The student must pass all core and GST courses offered  during the programme.

At the end of the semester, Direct Entry students must offer GST  203.

*UPDATE ON CHANGING OF STUDY CENTRE*

Changing Of Study Centre has  Commence Already But my best advice to any student that wishes to change study centre to another is that such student should hold on till after 2022_1 results have been released before changing it because if you try it now, it may affect your result from not been released i.e unreleased result. Kindly take note and stay away from changing study Centres for now.
