AYODELE ADMISSIONS OFFICER (UNDERGRADUATE) 1 I start by congratulating you on your success at any of the University’s three Post-UTME that you attended, which culminated in your being recommended for admission into this great citadel of learning, the premier University in Nigeria. Congratulations!!! 2 This topic may not be too relevant to most of you at this time, considering the fact that more than 90% of you recommended for admission have gone through the process of admission clearance, however, I would still implore you to give me your full attention, as one or two information useful to your stay on this campus will be passed across through this talk. 3 After you have been recommended for admission and your names taken to JAMB Abuja for approval, as well as displayed on the website of the university, you are first expected to pay the sum of N7,500.00 as Admission Acceptance fee, and come to the Admission’s Office for clearance for these reasons: 4 [a] To present the originals of all your academic credential for sighting to ensure compatibility with the results you logged in online with which you got invited for interaction. 5 [b] To also get registered fully at the Admissions Office as a student of the University. It is at this point, that a file is opened for you, which will later on be transferred to the Records Office at the appropriate time. 6 [c] To submit your reference letters, written for you by persons authorized to do so, in attestation of your good moral conduct. This is because, at the end of your stay here, your degree will be awarded to you on the basis of your character and learning. Should you get yourself involved in any disciplinary matter, the persons who stood as referees for you will be contacted. 7 Acceptance form Jamb result ‘O’ level, ‘A’ level or other results with which your admission was processed.
