NO fewer than 366 students of the Rivers State University of Science and Technology, Port Harcourt, have been expelled by the management of the institution for poor academic performance.

The RSUST Vice Chancellor, Prof. Barineme Fakae, who made this announcement on Wednesday at the 33rd matriculation of the university, explained that the affected students could not meet the minimum academic standard required by the institution.

He said the expelled students could not make the Cumulative Grade Point Average 1.00 and were withdrawn from the university at the end of the 2013/2014 session.

Fakae also disclosed that for the 2013/2014 academic session, eight best performing students of the university from seven different faculties were rewarded with one laptop computer each, saying the reward was aimed at encouraging healthy competition in academics among students.

He said the institution would reward best performing students of the university every year and that 12,904 applicants, who scored above the University Tertiary Matriculation Examination cut-off mark of 180 per cent, applied to study in RSUST.

The VC said only 3, 322 (25.74 percent) out of the number were admitted based on merit and the National Universities Commission’s approved carrying capacity.

Fakae said, “I have to reiterate that in RSUST today, you must be good to come in, good to stay in and good to graduate. It is sad to announce that 366 students out of a total population of 14,948 that registered last session, who could not make the mandatory Cumulative Grade Point Avergae (CGPA) of 1.00, were withdrawn from the university at the end of last session (2013/2014) due to academic failure.

“As you know, the commonly known academic vice called ‘sorting’ no longer has a home in Rivers State University of Science and Technology due to our strict adherence to the academic rules and our electronic process.”
