This is the official thread fir the covenant university 2015/2016 session. I created this thread because I needed a thread like this before I entered CU but coulfnt find one. So drop your questions and I would try my best to answer. or refer you to parts of their website that can. you can also ditect aspirants you know to this thread. I look foward to your questions.

This is to inform prospective students that the screening process might be stricter that this years own. I know this because I have a female friend back home who has nothing to do and she applied to covenant.and didn't even appear in any of the admission lists released.

I entered very narrowly because I had a jamb score of 180 on the dot- lucky right? I decided to work harder and got 40/60 in the post jamb. but still that wasn't enough to get admitted to architecture which entered for. but it still got me into building technology which is still within my field. I had a friend who applied for comp. science but was given industrial maths which was probably because he got about 23 in his post jamb. so please perform well in your jamb and post jamb. not forgetting to pick the right combination of subjects in jamb and Waec or which ever O ' level result u decide to use. check your jamb brochure and the links below for info on subject combinations

download the student handbook. as you know, CU has alot if strict rules. the handbook would let you know what you are getting yourself into so you dont regret it later . its in pdf format so you would need a pdf reader like adobe.

according to their admissions website

"A 500-word statement of purpose should be prepared and submitted online with the application. The personal statement should address your intellectual interests, academic and professional objectives, visions and goals for life. Please review the academic programmes for details."

the sponsorship letter should be writtten by whoever is going to be paying you school fees stating that they are going to be responsible for your education and they are capable of doing it.
since it is a formal letter, it should be short and precise..probablt two paragraphs and not more than one page
