STUDENT AFFAIRS DIVISIONStudents dressed in rag costumes on a rag day

There is lots of support and information available to students across the university. The Student Centre is at the heart of the university community. It contains the Student Affairs Division who's job it is to provide practical help and guidance to all students – especially the questions and queries you might have on first joining the University. The Students’ Union is also a valuable source of information for new students which also resides in the Students Centre.

New students can find out more about a range of services including: Accommodation and Living in Yola; Financial Support and Information; Disability Services; Careers; Chaplaincy; Counselling Service; Sports Services; or opportunities such as becoming a Student Ambassador or Volunteering.

Both the Student Affairs Division and the Union are easily located – both are resident at the Students Centre.

Many new students familiarise themselves with the Student Centre and the Student Affairs Division and its opening times in the first few days after joining the University. The SAD is open late during the first three weeks of the new academic year. All Freshers’ are treated to an Orientation of the University and city as well with visits to tourist and centres of importance including the city market and the royal palace of the traditional ruler of the town (Lamido of Adamawa).
