Student’s Orientation

At the commencement of an academic session, all fresh students are expected to undergo an orientation programme which normally takes place in the first week of resumption. The programme is intended to expose new students briefly to the whole range of services and privileges available to them as members of an academic community. The programme is also designed to suit them in settling down and adjusting to College life. As part of orientation, freshers are able to meet the Provost, the Registrar, other principal officers, Deans and other senior administrative and academic staff.

Matriculation
