SAZU Reabsorbs Students with Expired Residencies After Senate Approves One-Session Extension
In a major relief for returning students, Sa’adu Zungur University (SAZU), Gadau, formerly known as Bauchi State University, has approved the reabsorption of students whose residencies expired on or before the 2024/2025 academic session.
This development follows a Senate-approved one-session extension aimed at helping affected students regularise their academic status and complete pending programme requirements.
Why SAZU’s Decision Matters
The Senate’s approval underscores the university’s dedication to academic inclusivity and support for students who, due to various reasons, could not meet their residency timelines.
“This one-session extension gives affected students a renewed chance to continue their studies and complete their programmes without losing academic progress,” the statement from SAZU’s management noted.
What Affected Students Should Do
To benefit from the approved reabsorption, students must reactivate their academic status by completing the university’s official process at the ICT Directorate on the main campus in Gadau.
Here’s how to complete the reactivation process:
- Visit the ICT Directorate at SAZU’s main campus in Gadau.
- Present your student ID and previous registration details for verification.
- Confirm your eligibility for reabsorption through the designated ICT officers.
- Follow the reactivation procedures as directed and complete all pending registrations immediately after approval.
Important Reminder
The university emphasized that this reabsorption exercise applies strictly to students whose residencies expired on or before the 2024/2025 session. Students are strongly advised to make use of this opportunity within the stipulated period to avoid forfeiting their academic chances.
Final Note
With this new extension, Sa’adu Zungur University (SAZU) reaffirms its commitment to helping students succeed academically despite challenges. Affected students are urged to act promptly to avoid missing out on this second chance at completing their studies.
