Registration guidelines and deadlines

Students have been advised to consult the university's registration guidelines and approved academic calendar for details on deadlines and procedures.

The directorate specifically cautioned students to complete the process ahead of the stipulated deadline to avoid any complications with their enrolment.

The announcement comes on the heels of a heavy industrial strike that brought the majority of academic activities at the university to a standstill.

The disruption had left students and faculty in a state of uncertainty, making Tuesday's notice a significant step towards restoring normalcy on campus.

With registration now open, students are expected to move swiftly to secure their places for the semester ahead.
