FUOYE Late Registration Period and Penalties

FUOYE usually provides a late registration window for students who are unable to register during the normal period. However, late registration attracts penalties, including additional fees.

Late registration is granted for a limited time, and students must complete all requirements before the final deadline. After the late registration period closes, students may not be allowed to register for courses for the semester.

Failure to register for courses can lead to serious academic consequences, such as:

  1. Inability to sit for examinations

  2. Incomplete academic records

  3. Delay in graduation

  4. Loss of the academic session

Students are strongly advised to complete their registration early to avoid unnecessary stress and financial penalties.
