Change from Semester to Term system The University Senate, in the interest of all stakeholders, has made a decision to revert to the Term System in the 2013 Academic Year which commences in October this year.Rightly so, some questions and concerns are being raised about the impact of this shift on degree classifications and payment of fees. We wish to assure all students and other stakeholders that measures are being put in place so that no one is disadvantaged. You will be kept informed of the developments as Schools embark on course reviews for the Term System.
