The University Of Calabar (UNICAL), has matriculated 6,395
students into its full-time programmes for the 2014/2015
academic session.
Speaking during the event, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof James
Epoke, congratulated the students on scaling through the
admission hurdles.
According to him, more than 25,000 applicants chose the
university as their first choice during the Unified Tertiary
Matriculation Examination (UTME), but 12,340 scored above
180 to qualify in JAMB and were invited for the attitude test,
through which 6,395 candidates were admitted.
Advising the students he said, “It is a great challenge to all
of you, who have been given admission, to live up to
expectation and defend your admission by working hard and
passing your examinations very well. You are expected to
keep to the rules and regulations of the school, bearing in
mind that ignorance is no excuse for defaulters.”
He further stated that, students must have 75 per cent
lecture attendance to be allowed to write examination.
