UNILAG debunks 2022/2023 school calendar rumours
By Oyelola Racheal
The University of Lagos has debunked claims making the rounds on social media that the 2022/2023 school calendar is out.
The school management disclosed this in a statement made available to Nigerian NewsDirect.
“The attention of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) has been drawn to a publication that erroneously claims that ‘UNILAG 2022/2023 Resumption Date is out.’ The University Management wishes to inform prospective and returning students as well as the general public that this piece of information released by the website: www.schoolbeginner.com is FALSE, and did not emanate from the University of Lagos.
“However it was brought to the attention of the Management of the University of Lagos that unprofessional and unethical activities of some tutorial centres especially as it pertains to the University’s School of Foundation Studies are unauthorized.
“The proprietors and agents of the affected tutorial centres are reportedly sparing no efforts at defrauding unsuspecting parents and guardians of Students of School of Foundation Studies.
“Information at the disposal of the University’s management confirms that different formats of messages both texts and on social media are being peddled around and sent to the innocent parents and guardians, offering them promises which are way beyond the reach or mandate of the tutorial centres.
“The school management is making this known to the general public that the contents of such messages are untrue, fraudulent, nefarious and harmful to the image, brand and reputation of the University of Lagos as a University of first choice and the nation’s pride as well as the School of Foundation Studies.
“More so, Management of the University of Lagos therefore dissociates itself from the malicious activities of all the tutorial centres and warns all members of the public especially parents and guardians of Students of School of Foundation Studies that UNILAG and the School of Foundation Studies will not be part of any activity or scheme which would rip them off.
“Management also wishes to announce that supplementary admission for the 2021/2022 programme is on and any candidate who scored 40% and above is eligible for admission.
“Parents, guardian of/and prospective candidates can visit the School of Foundation Studies website on; foundation.unilag.edu.ng for any information, enquiries and clarifications regarding the ongoing admission process.”
