Obinoscopy:
Hi guys, please is It compulsory to register at least 1 Elective in a semester? I have already met the 90 units requirements with the Core Courses. Must I still register an Elective Course?

Elective Courses are not mandatory. However, you can take them to boost your transcript and ameliorate your CGPA.

Additionally, you need to be very selective and/or be careful when choosing the Course because such Course can make or mar your performance/CGPA in the long run.

liljaydee:
please all, have not been able to go for my clearance on weekdays due to my work, want to ask maybe it can be on Saturdays?

NOUN do not open on Saturdays.

UEDIBO:
PLEASE WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE CONVOCATION CENTRE.

Venue:

University village,
National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN),
Plot 91, Cadatral Zone,
Nnamdi Azikwe Express way,
Jabi, Abuja, FCT.

stevohdee:
, pls is der any fee attach 2 d penalty 4 nt attending d convocation and i was told dt payment for gown is a must whelther u attend or nt hw true is dis?

No fee attached.
Nevertheless, for your clearance form to be signed and authenticated at your SC, you must pay for the Academic gown and Alumni, whether you attend the convocation or not.

kevoh:


@uau

Must one attend the convocation to get the certificate? Do you have any info about steps to take to get the certificate without necessarily being at the convocation. My name is on the list by the way.

It's not mandatory.
If you know you can't make it to the convocation, due to some logistic reasons. The penalty/retribution is, after the convocation, you'll have to go and obtain your certificate at the headquarters.

You're required to go to the headquarters with a duly completed and authenticated clearance form issued at your Study Centre.

All the best!

Joe50:


but most people i know their names appeared have not done the alumni payment/registration.

i personally went to the accountant office to enquiry about the alumni payment and the lady that attended to me said i must see my name on the list before paying for alumni.

Very valid!
You 'must' see your name on the list before paying and/or undergoing any kind of clearance/approval.

dickoflife:
Wait I was told for Mass Comm M.sc once I do 36 units of compulsory courses and 6 units of projects am free to go. How true is that?

Do not panic!
With that, you are good to go.

idu1:

The prime time is now.
Currently, the application for the 2016 NOUN admission is still on-going.

thatsmartgirl:

Oh! Thanks, I didn't check the date. But, I guess there are some final year students and graduates here who should be able to know if their is anything like that... I'm sure they should know if they will be Mobilize for NYSC or next set...
Dont mind ma English, just want to know the fact about NOUN and NYSC

Ma'am, I'll advise you stay glued to your tv set (NTA)this coming Saturday (10am). You'll get to hear the facts from the horse's mouth.

femikaka:
Am a master student. The programme is for 4 semesters. BT I finished it with my project between 3 semesters. My third semester result is not yet out. BT based on the 5th convocation. Is it possible for me to graduate. Even when my result is not yet out. And when I checked my portal I was asked to pay compulsory fees of 13000. Which have did. Another question is I still see some courses on my portal compulsory once. Which have passed before. The same title but different course codes. What can I do

The programme is for 3 semesters, and not 4 semesters.
Seeing that you have already amassed the 45 credit units (project inclusive) required for the programme, presumably no carry-over, you'll feasibly see your name on the Grad List (New).

Reason: Last semester's result has been compiled, but the result will be out on your portal by February or early March

UEDIBO:
am aiming 4.52.
i learnt there be an award of excellent performance.

Not only an award of distinctive achievement. You would also be offered an automatic employment in the institution (NOUN).

According to the Vice-Chancellor and I quote, "First Class graduates, who wish to join us in our institution, will now become members of our academics."

May God Help You!

alakaloko:
*procure * you mean buy.. Hope that's will not be too costly?

No, "To obtain."

Thanks.

UEDIBO:
I APPLIED FOR ONLY FRIDAY TO ATTEND CONVOCATION
BUT I WAS NOT GIVEN IN MY OFFICE.
PLEASE IS THERE ANY PENALTY?

The retribution is, after the convocation, you'll have to go and procure your certificate at the headquarters.

Kokopos:


Thanks. Like how many hours will the ceremony last? Cos I intend to return to Jos from Abuja that same day. Thanks

10am - 3pm (5hours or thereabout).

Kokopos:
For those who have attended NOUN convocation: Please what's the procedure for certificate collection on the day of convocation.

At the end of the ceremony, graduands would be presented with their respective certificates. You are advised to go along with a duly completed and authenticated clearance form issued at your SC.

shegsky:
@ MimiHANS
i have a J brother who is interested in Enrolling into Environmental health,and he only has an o 'level result, the issue is that these course only starts 4rm 200level on the noun website e - courseware, Does it mean they do not admit into 100level at all,or whats ur take on these . Thanks.

If the course (Environmental Health) commences from 200Level as stated on the NOUN website. That artlessly signifies that NOUN only admit into 200Level (DE) for that course, and not 100Level.

SONKOko:


I just left Ikeja SC not long. Met with the director himself, he said he doesn't have new list yet.

The much awaited Grad list (New list) is finally out!

Though, you should stay put till next week Monday to check for your name.
Best of luck!

thatsmartgirl:
Help please help me out.
I have not done registration due to remita network ish in kaduna state.
I don't know if making school fees payment by the end of this month is disastrous.
I want to know from graduating students if the NYSC stuff has been finalized.

Please, someone should help me out with this. I'm just about to enroll to the school. I want to study Bsc. Computer science. I don't know if there is any means of payment outside going to the bank, cux the network has been behaving for the past 1week.
I'm just confused.

Making payment for school fees by this month ending won't be fatal or too late. Nevertheless, Do not relent till when the network is back to normalcy.

Withal, concerning the NYSC issue, stay put and stay glued to your tv set on the convocation day (next week Saturday) to hear it from the horse's mouth.

Philipsdael:

Thanks MiniHans
I wasn't the Nairalander that asked that question but pls, in reference to what you said. Will noun accept a University diploma certificate with Distinction from a recognised sch like Unilag.
.
The reason why I'm skeptical, is because , there is a disparity between Uni-diploma and Poly-diploma.
Thanks in advance.

Sir, they should accept it, however, you can go and consult a weathered counselor at your intended SC to clarify and clear your doubts/skepticisms.

wableo:
I have registered my courses. My problem now is that my project is showing 40k. I am in 2nd semester masters. I want to start my project as soon as possible, I must register the project with 40k before I start? I just pay 40k today and left with 14k in my portal. What is the best thing for me to do now cos I must finish this program as soon as possible.

If you are financially buoyant to add to the remaining 14k, you can go ahead. Better still, you can wait till the subsequent semester.

Nonetheless, you 'must' put it in mind that it should be the very first/prime course to register in your subsequent semester.

All the best!

maekhel:

Thanks.
I mean lecturing activities.

NOUN is a Self-Taught institution. You should not expect lectures.

Howbeit, you can form a group discussion with your course mates and/or join discussions organised by NOUN facilitators.

SQLmastar:

Since last year December.
