Northwest University (NWU) Announces Matriculation Date 2025

Northwest University, Kano will hold its 2024/2025 matriculation ceremony on Friday, 15 August 2025, at the Muhammadu Sunusi II Lecture Theatre, Main Campus. All new students are to attend in their academic gowns and be seated early. See full schedule below.

Matriculation day is one of those big markers in school life. It’s not just another Friday on the calendar, it’s the official welcome into the university family. For Northwest University, Kano, the date is set and the stage is ready.

Ceremony Details

Here’s what’s on the card:

  • Date: Friday, 15 August 2025
  • Venue: Muhammadu Sunusi II Lecture Theatre, Main Campus
  • Time: Ceremony starts at 9:00 am

But here’s the thing — students aren’t strolling in at nine. Every new student, along with their faculty officers, is expected to be seated by 8:00 am sharp. No excuses, no strolling in halfway.

Why It Matters

This isn’t just another assembly. It’s the day you take the matriculation oath, sealing your place as a student of the university. The management wants full attendance, and they’re not just saying it for formality.

Come in numbers, come looking the part. That means properly dressed in your academic gown, neat and ready for the occasion. This isn’t the time to forget your cap or leave your gown hanging at home.
