What This Means for Students

The two-week extension offers a valuable window for students to finalize their preparations. However, it also serves as a final warning for those with outstanding administrative issues.

1. Final Revision: Use the extra 14 days to master your course materials and review past questions.

2. Verify Registration: Log into your student portal to ensure there are no glitches in your course enrollment.

3. Settle Outstanding Fees: If you haven't paid your fees, this is your last chance to do so before the new May 11th start date.

All Provosts, Deans, Directors, and Heads of Departments have been directed to update their departmental schedules and ensure full compliance with the new dates.
