UNIMAID Addresses Concerns of Pharmacy Aspirants: Assures Admissions and Clarifies Process

In the wake of uncertainty and concern among aspiring pharmacy students at the University of Maiduguri, the institution recently held discussions to address the worries surrounding the delay in admissions for medical courses, particularly pharmacy.

Despite the apprehension caused by the absence of medical course admissions, with only dentistry being offered currently, university officials have assured students that plans for pharmacy admissions are on track. The delay in information dissemination, partly attributed to a stolen phone impeding communication, has led to a lack of clarity for many applicants.

The university has moved swiftly to allay fears, emphasizing that admissions for pharmacy and allied courses will proceed once the academic session commences. Plans for a meeting to discuss potential revisions to cut-off marks were in the works, with intentions to disclose total applicants, top, average, and lowest scores, yet no conclusive feedback has been provided thus far.

Addressing the clamor for information, officials advise prospective students not to engage in unnecessary stress, but rather to await updates once the college and allied courses commence. They highlight that health-related courses, including pharmacy, will have separate admission processes.

As January 2nd approaches, the university encourages patience among aspirants, assuring that the admission process will become clearer within the first days of the new year. The key message echoes the importance of remaining hopeful, prayerful, and patient during this transitional phase.
