INFORMATION FOR NEW STUDENTS INTRODUCTION ORIENTATION PROGRAMME Student orientation programme is done at their various Study Centres. All fresh students are required to undergo an orientation programme prior to their registration. The programme is intended to acquaint the students with the whole range of services and privileges available to them as well as their responsibilities as members of an academic community. Regulations require satisfactory completion of the orientation before matriculation in the University. REGISTRATION The University’s registration system is computerized and so most of the registration exercise is online. Each student is provided with internet access, user name and password to log on the registration portal of the University website. For fresh students, the registration procedures include participation in interview and screening exercise where credentials are screened for authenticity. It also includes payment of relevant fees for both fresh and returning students. The University’s academic year comprises of two semesters. Each student is assigned an academic adviser during the registration exercise in the Department. It is important for students to get proper advice from their assigned Academic Adviser, regarding the number and relevance of the courses to register for. To be accepted as a bonafide student, eligible to attend lectures as the case may be and take examinations, the student must duly register within the stipulated period for all prescribed courses at the beginning of each semester. Any student who fails to duly register within the specified time period will pay a late registration fee. This concession is only for the period approved for the late registration. DEFERMENT OF ADMISSION Is entertained only based on university policy and conditions such could be when a student falls sick or suffers an accident after registering for a programme in the University. Such a student would apply with relevant medical report to the Dean of his/her Faculty through the Head of the Department for deferment of a semester or sessions as the case may be to enable him/her fully recover. To defer admission, you are required to write to the Registrar though the Study Centre Director with evidence of your admission and course registration. CHANGE OF PROGRAMME AND COURSE Student process change of courses via their respective study centres. The students download the required form via their Study Centres and process it through their respective Study Centres. REGISTERED STUDENTS WHO WISH TO CHANGE THEIR PROGRAMME OF STUDY Registered Students who wish to change their Programme of Study process it via their respective study centers. The students download the required form via their Study Centres and process it through their respective Study Centres. NEW STUDENTS WHO WERE WRONGLY ADMITTED TO A PROGRAMME Students who were wrongly admitted to a programme can seek counsel from the school counselor. CHANGE OF REGISTERED COURSES THROUGH “ADD/DROP” PROVISION A Student who wants to make changes to his/her registered courses after completion of his/her registration shall do so on prescribed Add/Drop forms. This provides students’ the opportunity to delete (drop), add or substitute courses he/she has previously registered for during the current registration exercise. The change(s) become effective after approval by the HOD. Under no circumstance should a student just abandon a course he/she has registered for or attend lectures and/or sit for examinations of course(s) for which he/she has not duly registered without first having his/her change(s) approved through the Add/Drop forms. OPENING AND CLOSING OF THE COURSE REGISTRATION PORTAL The registration portal opens at the beginning of every semester and closes before the commencement of continuous assessment. Once the portal is closed, you will not be able to register for courses for the semester until it opens again for the next semester. This means that students who were unable to register for their courses before the closure of the course registration portal are Not Eligible to take the TMA and examinations for the course(s). COURSE RE-REGISTRATION You are not allowed to re-register for a course that you have already passed. EXAMINATION Each academic staff prepares questions based on available materials. More often than not, senior members of staff internally moderate items and marking schemes prepared by junior ones and enlighten them the more with regards to phraseology, clarity and content of each course. Then the questions are passed on to the examination coordinator for the Faculty, who then sends them to the Directorate for Examinations and Assessment of the University. The academic staff and, in some cases, invited experts in relevant fields, prepare both tutor-marked assessment (TMA) questions and end of semester examination (ESE) questions. These are further internally moderated with the accompanying marking schemes before they are given to the students. The TMAs are 3 in number; students are required to answer all and have them graded. The TMAs constitute 30% of the course final grade and also serve as the continuous assessment for the course. The question papers for the final year students are moderated by an external examiner before the questions are administered. The end of semester exams (ESE) constitutes 70%. Apart from the earlier examinations conducted in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 respectively, all recent ESE for the 100 and 200 level students have been conducted online. The conduct of the end of semester examination is usually carried out at the various study centres. The University has in place guidelines for conduct of examinations. Results are issued after Senate ratification of the semester results. TUTOR-MARKED ASSIGNMENTS (TMA) Continuous assessments in NOUN are automated in the form of computer-marked assignments and are administered online. They are uploaded onto students‟ portals subject to the students‟ registration for the course. The TMAs comprise four (3) sets of 10 Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ), totaling 30 MCQs. Students are expected to answer all the question items. They can access the TMAs in their portals from any location via the Internet. The four (3) TMAs are automatically graded upon submission and you receive feedback on their performance in form of a score. The TMA is an important component, constituting 30% of the final score in a course. It is important to note that any student without TMA scores will not have any score for that course. END OF SEMESTER EXAMINATIONS Two types of examinations are employed at the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN). They are the eExaminations and the Pen-on-Paper (PoP) examinations. The examinations are conducted at the end of every semester at the Study Centres or any other location as may be arranged by the Study Centres. For undergraduate and postgraduate students, the examinations account for 70% of the total score for the course. THE e-EXAMINATION This a computer-based examination administered at 100 and 200 levels only. The examinations comprise MCQs and Fill- in- the Gaps (FBQs) question types. The number of questions per course is according to the credit units of a course. THE PEN ON PAPER (POP) EXAMINATIONS PoP examinations are written based examinations administered in a face-to-face context to 300 level students and above. The number of questions per course is according to the credit units of the course. OPENING AND CLOSING OF EXAMINATION PORTAL As it is for course registration, students must also register for examinations they wish to undertake. The portal for examination registration opens alongside the course registration portal. Students who do not register for examinations will not be allowed to write examinations in the relevant course. SEMESTER NOUN offers two semesters of study per year. RE-MARKING OF SCRIPTS The University has put a policy in place to guide requests for remarking of scripts and re-computation of results. The provisions of this policy can be found on “Policy of Re-Marking of Students’ Examination Scripts and Re-computation of Results” For instance, a student who wishes to request for the re-marking of his/her script(s) must appeal within 30 days from the date of publication of the results. There is a fee per course for this service. Students should familiarise themselves with the procedures before making requests for the re-marking of their scripts. STUDY CENTRES Study Centres are central to the students‟ learning activities in open and distance learning context. They are the first stop for specific information about your degree programme. NOUN has over seventy Study Centres spread across the country that are equipped with facilities and support services such as library, computers, reading facilities, and student counselors. Students are encouraged to make use of these facilities and services at their Study Centres. CORE/COMPULSORY COURSE A core or compulsory course is one which every student must compulsorily take and pass in any particular programme at a particular level of study. ELECTIVE COURSE An elective is a course that students take within or outside the faculty. Students may graduate without passing the course provided the minimum credit unit for the course had been attained. ✔Compulsory courses are courses which must be offered and passed before graduation. These courses are marked compulsory or ‘C’ in the list of courses to be registered each semester. They must be registered before registering any elective courses. ✔Elective courses are courses which a student chose from a number of optional courses in the list of courses of the semester. Electives are courses you can choose, while compulsory courses are the ones you must study to complete your degree. Electives, when added to the compulsory courses, make up the total number of units needed to complete your degree. Elective courses are usually labeled Elective of ‘E’.

The form must be returned to the Study Centres within two weeks of the commencement of SIWES. The information on the form will assist the Directorate during the supervision visits. Failure to return this form is taken as non-participation in the programme. ➡The SIWES Logbook – should be completed daily and signed weekly by the industry-based supervisor. This is very important. The logbook will be examined during supervision visits and be checked along with work reports on industrial work experience. You must have the logbook with you every time you are on duty. ➡SIWES Evaluation Form is to be completed by the employer at the end of the SIWES programme. It must be brought back to the Desk Officer at the Study Centre under confidential cover. ↪Students should note that SIWES is not a vacation job. It is a compulsory programme and an integral part of academic work. Any case of indiscipline during this period will attract severe disciplinary measures. If a student has any problem with his/her place of SIWES attachment, he/she should contact the Directorate immediately. There should be no change of employer unless the Directorate gives a written permission. Any change without a written permission will be regarded as non-participation in the programme. In conclusion, I will like to assure you that the Directorate will come to your assistance whenever you are in any form of difficulty. You should feel free to send a mail or discuss with the supervisors during supervision visits. In any case of emergency, you should contact your Desk Officer or the Directorate immediately.
