The National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) will hold its 31st Matriculation Ceremony this Wednesday, 7th October, 2026.
The ceremony will be virtually coordinated from the University Headquarters in Abuja, with all Study Centres across the country linking to the event.
In a circular to all Study Centres, Registrar of the university Oladipo Ajayi advised all Centres to conduct orientation programmes for newly admitted students.
The orientation is aimed at acquainting the freshers with the mode of operation of the University as an Open and Distance Learning (ODL) institution and will serve as a prelude to the matriculation exercise.
Meanwhile, the University has announced that academic gowns are now available for matriculating students, subject to clearance.
The gowns must be returned properly cleaned not later than Friday, 9th October, 2026 Ajayi added.
