Critical Guidelines for Students

The University underscored that the Third Semester is an intensive remedial window with specific limitations:

Eligibility: Strictly limited to spill-over students. "Dropped courses" are not eligible for registration.

Grading Cap: The maximum grade obtainable in this session is an "E" (40–44%). Students seeking a higher grade are advised to register during the regular academic session.

Documentation: Evidence of payment must be submitted to both the overseeing committee and respective departments.

Heads of Departments have been mandated to coordinate intensive revisions and ensure that all examinations conform to Senate-approved standards. All results, alongside copies of registration forms and receipts, are to be submitted to the Timetable and Examination Office upon completion of the program.

The University management urges all concerned students to comply with the registration deadline, as no extensions were indicated in the current directive.
