Students are advised to complete their registration before the deadline to avoid missing out. The registration portal will close on Monday, 17th March 2025.
Why This Matters
The GST CBT exams are compulsory for all students in the 300 to 500 levels. These exams are part of the university’s efforts to ensure students meet the academic requirements for their programmes. The SUG has emphasized that the GST unit is taking steps to organize the process smoothly and avoid any issues. Completing registration on time is crucial to participate in these exams.

Additional Information

This process includes biometric capturing to ensure a smooth and secure examination process. Students are reminded that failure to complete biometric capturing, where required, may also prevent them from taking the exams.
