KASU Restricts Campus Access During New Student Verification Exercise

Kaduna State University (KASU) has announced temporary access restrictions to the verification center during the screening and registration exercise for newly admitted students.

Access Restrictions

Only authorized staff directly involved in the verification exercise are permitted in the restricted verification area.

Who Cannot Enter

• Parents and guardians
• Non-essential university staff
• Visitors and unauthorized persons

Entry to the restricted zone requires official clearance or invitation from university authorities.

Reason for Restrictions

According to Registrar Samira Balarabe, Esq., the university observed "a surge in human traffic at the verification center in recent days has caused congestion, delays, and operational inefficiencies."

The restrictions aim to:

• Safeguard sensitive student documentation
• Maintain verification process integrity
• Enhance overall safety and security
• Reduce congestion and improve efficiency
• Speed up the verification process for students

Designated Waiting Areas

The university has provided designated waiting areas for parents, guardians, and visitors outside the restricted verification zone.

What This Means for New Students

• Come to verification alone (parents wait in designated areas)
• Only students will be allowed into the verification center
• Process will be faster with reduced congestion
• Your documents and data will be more secure

For Parents and Guardians

• Drop off your child/ward at the designated point
• Wait in the provided waiting areas
• Do not attempt to enter the restricted verification zone
• Your student will complete the process independently
• Pick up your student after verification is complete

Duration

The access restrictions will remain in effect throughout the verification exercise. The university will communicate updates as the exercise progresses.

Important Notes

• Restrictions apply only to the verification center, not the entire campus
• Students should bring all required documents
• Follow instructions from university staff
• Cooperate with security personnel at checkpoints

KASU newly admitted students should prepare to complete the verification exercise independently while parents and guardians wait in designated areas outside the restricted zone.
