The 2025/2026 hostel allocation exercise at Nasarawa State University, Keffi (NSUK) is officially underway, and the University Management is calling on all eligible students to take action.
The allocation process is the university's structured system for assigning accommodation to students, ensuring that the available hostel spaces are distributed in a fair, transparent, and organised manner.
NSUK Hostel Allocation 2025/2026 Academic Session
Nasarawa State University, Keffi, hostel allocation for returning students will commence from the 8th of September, 2025, and will run until the 15th of September, 2025. Allocation for newly admitted students will begin on the 16th of September, 2025, and will end on the 30th of September, 2025.
Due to limited bed space relative to the number of students at the university, NSUK will adopt a first come, first served system, where the first batch of students to apply will be attended to before others are considered.
