MOHE Urges Universities To Postpone Physical Registrations
"For students who are already present in campus and are pursuing academic activities, they can remain on their respective campuses."
The Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) announced that all universities should postpone face-to-face registrations for the October intake
In a statement on Friday, 2 October, the MOHE said, "All student registration matters can be done online, as well as aspects of teaching and learning until new announcements about it is made."
The ministry's decision was because of concerns over the health, safety, and well-being of students, staff, and all parties involved in the COVID-19 pandemic
Students who are already on campus and are studying can still remain while respective universities are asked to help them.
It is also recommended for all institutes of higher learning to delay any programmes or activities involving gatherings on the campus.
MOHE has negotiated with airlines to reschedule students' flights returning to the campus
The airline companies have agreed to re-schedule the student flights until 31 December this year as a result of those negotiations.
