Off campus living often comes with hidden challenges, from rushing for transport to struggling with unstable power supply and sometimes insecurity. Securing a hostel space early can save you months of stress during the school year. That is why many students prefer staying within the school environment.
For the 2024/2025 academic session, Federal University Wukari has continued to provide affordable and organised hostel accommodation for both new and returning students and here is everything you need to know about the process.
FUWUKARI Hostel Accommodation
Hostel spaces at FUWUKARI are limited and highly competitive every year. Thousands of students apply once the portal opens, and late applicants often miss out.
Accommodation is open to:
New students
Returning students
Indigenes and non-indigenes
Students who recently checked their names on the admission list are usually advised to prepare early for hostel registration.
Living on campus gives students better access to lecture halls, libraries, and study groups. It also helps students follow the academic calendar without distractions.
Students with Higher Chances of getting a hostel space
While all eligible students can apply, some categories usually have higher chances.
These include:
First year students
Final year students
Students with medical considerations
Students in 300 level sometimes have lower chances due to Industrial Training and Teaching Practice activities.
