Rapid Antigen Testing

Mindful of the serious threat to human lives by COVID- 1 9, especially with the discovery globally of the highly transmissible Delta variant, and the new OMICRON variant of the virus, all students will be required to undergo the Rapid Antigen test at a cost of NI 0,000 (Ten Thousand Naira only) to the student.

Evidence Of payment for the test will be required on resumption at the University Amphitheatre, venue for the testing.

The student will wait for about 20 minutes for the result. If the test result of the student is negative, the student proceeds straight to the hall of residence.

The students that test positive with the Rapid Antigen test will be offered isolation until they test negative, or can be taken home by their parents.

IN ADDITION, All 100 Level and 200 Level direct entry students will be required to undergo full medical examination including psychosocial screening. As part of the medical examination package, all new students will be offered Tetanus, Diphtheria and Pertussis vaccines— Tdap, (optional) at no cost to the students.

However, at the discretion of parents/guardians, Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine is available for female students at N30, 575 (Thirty Thousand, Five Hundred and Seventy Five Naira only) for 3 doses for the prevention of cervical cancer.

ALL staff and students (18 years and above) are encouraged to get vaccinated against COVID- 19 infection. There are several vaccination centres across the country. A minimum of 2 doses is required.
