NOUN Course Registration and Exam Registration Procedure
In NOUN, students are required to pay for the course and exam registrations. The price of a course is determined by the credit unit(s) of such course. They are as follows:
| CREDIT UNITS | PRICE (NAIRA) |
| One unit (mostly practical) | 1,000 |
| Two units | 2,000 |
| Three units | 2,500 |
| Four units (mostly law) | 3,000 |
In a Simple sentence, courses are like subjects u are required to take in a semester and they comprise 2 and 3 credit units. Some practicals in the science department are 1 unit while some law courses carry 4 credit units.
The maximum number of units a student can register per semester is 24 units. It is not compulsory that a student register for all the courses meant for him/her in a semester but it is strongly advisable to try and register all.
Take for instance:
Let assume I was meant to register 10 (ten) courses in my 100 level first semester but was able to register 6, maybe due to financial reasons. This means that I have 4 courses outstanding in that semester. Now in the second semester, I am required to register 8 plus the initial 4, it becomes 12 (don’t forget that there may be carryover) now it has compounded. The workload will be much if I am able to register all. If I am unable, the outstanding courses continue and as such, I may end up spending more than the years I am supposed to.
Please try as much as possible to avoid this, it is one of the core reasons many students drop out.
- Undergraduates exam fee cost N1,000 (One Thousand Naira only) for each course.
- Post-graduates exam fee is N2,000 (Two Thousand Naira only) for each course.
- Ph.D. examination fee is N3,000 (Three Thousand Naira only) per course.
If you have any carryover for whatsoever reason, you will only pay the exam fee when re-sitting.
Ph.D. re-sitting is N4,000 (Four Thousand Naira only) per course
Note: You can only register the exams of the courses you registered.
