Immediate actions for affected students

1. Confirm the extended deadline with your faculty or departmental noticeboard and act immediately — don’t wait until the last day.
2. Pay the required late-registration penalty (₦20,000) at the College-designated payment point. Keep your proof of payment (receipt) safely.
3. Present your payment receipt and original admission documents to the registration office/CITM to complete your registration and obtain a matriculation number.
4. If you were attending lectures without a matric number, see your Head of Department (HOD) with proof of payment and your registration documents — HODs were directed to send students without matric numbers out of lecture rooms until they regularise.
5. Check with the Centre for Information Technology and Management (CITM) for confirmation that your name has been removed from any “unregistered” lists once registration is completed.

Useful checklist before you go

• Admission letter or provisional admission document
• Valid form of identification (e.g., national ID, passport, or voter card)
• Payment receipt for late-registration penalty (₦20,000) or evidence of on-time payment if you already paid
• Two passport photographs (if required by the College)
• Copy of any previously completed registration forms or screenshots of online submission

What happens if you do not regularise on time

Students who fail to complete registration and obtain a matriculation number may be prevented from attending lectures, sitting for tests/examinations, or accessing certain College services. Departmental directives already require that students without matriculation numbers should not remain in lecture rooms.

When to contact authorities

Contact your Departmental Office and the College registration unit (or CITM) immediately if:

• Your name appears on any published list of unregistered students after you have paid and completed steps.
• You have evidence of payment but the registration portal or officers say you are not registered.
• You need clarification on approved payment channels or the appeals process for exceptional cases.

Practical tips

• Always obtain and keep official receipts for any payment to the College.
• Take screenshots or printed copies of any online confirmations immediately.
• Follow departmental and faculty noticeboards (physical or official College channels) for last-minute changes.
• Act early within the extension window to avoid queues and avoid missing further internal deadlines.
