IMPORTANT NOTICE ON NERD PROJECT REPORT UPLOAD FOR NYSC MOBILIZATION

Innovative Unilorites,

This is to inform all prospective corps members that, in line with the directive from the National Educational Research and Development (NERD) portal, every student is required to enroll on the NERD website before uploading their Project Report, Dissertation, or Thesis.

This process is a compulsory step towards the 2025 Batch C NYSC Mobilization exercise, as NERD clearance now forms part of the pre-mobilization requirements.

Steps to Follow:

1. Visit the NERD official portal via https://ned.gov.ng/login

2. Log in or create your NERD profile using your valid details.

3. Verify that your name, department, and institution appear correctly. If there’s any error, contact [email protected] immediately.

4. Click on the “Upload Thesis/Project Report” option on the left sidebar (or use the hamburger menu if you’re on mobile).

5. Follow the step-by-step guide to upload your project, including:
i. Selecting your submission type (Project, Thesis, Dissertation, etc.)
ii. Uploading your signed Certification Page
iii. Copying and pasting your approved work into the required sections (Abstract, Introduction, Methodology, etc.)
iv. Optionally uploading a PDF version of your complete work.

6. Click Submit Project to complete the process.

Important Notice:

NERD clearance covers both academic credential upload and academic report submission. However, due to the proximity of the 2025 Batch C NYSC mobilization, the academic credential component has been temporarily relaxed to allow institutions and students to familiarize themselves with the system.

Prospective corps members are strongly advised to ensure compliance with this notice without delay to ensure smooth processing of their clearance and mobilization for NYSC when due.

IMPORTANT UPDATE ON THE CAMPUS TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM

Innovative Unilorites,

We are pleased to announce that following the Union’s engagements and the constructive feedback from members of the University community, the earlier directive on the relocation of campus parks has been reviewed and fresh measures have been introduced towards ensuring that transportation within the University is more convenient and affordable.

This development reflects the University's responsiveness to student concerns and reaffirms the effectiveness of collective dialogue and responsible advocacy by the Union on behalf of all Unilorites.

KEY POINTS OF THE REVISED ARRANGEMENT:

• All commercial vehicles will continue to drop passengers at the new park near the University gate.

• Passengers may disembark at the old park, but commercial buses are not permitted to pick passengers from there.

• Only University-operated shuttles are allowed to pick passengers from the old park.

• Tricycles (Keke NAPEPs) are to operate from the open space around the Students’ Union Building/Bukateria area.

• The newly created bus stop opposite the Faculty of Education has been cancelled.

ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS:

• The fare from Tanke Terminus to campus remains ₦200.

• The fare from the new park to campus (via University-operated buses) is now ₦100.

These measures will operate on an interim basis (for about 2–3 weeks) while the University reviews and perfects the system for long-term implementation.

We appreciate the University Management for this reconsideration and assure all Unilorites of our continued engagement to ensure that the welfare, safety, and convenience remain central to every decision.

We appreciate your patience, cooperation, and maturity throughout this process. The Union remains steadfast in representing your interests with dignity, accuracy, and fairness, while promoting an environment that works for every Innovative Unilorite.

IMPORTANT NOTIFICATION ON THE NEW UNIVERSITY TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM

Innovative Unilorites,

In furtherance of our continuous commitment to the welfare of every Unilorite, we have been closely monitoring the new University transportation arrangement which has since commenced operation. While we observed the early implementation phase, we have since engaged the relevant authorities to ensure that the system truly serves the best interest of Unilorites.

In order to ease the burden on our colleagues and ensure the seamless operation of transportation across the University, we now write to officially inform all Unilorites about the structure and details of the new transport system. This arrangement is designed to enhance convenience, reduce waiting time, and make movement around campus more affordable and efficient.

Below is the breakdown of the transport services and their operational details:

Marcopolo Buses — ₦100
• Departure from New Park: From 7:15am daily.
• Return trips from Administrative Building: Begin from 12:00pm, available every hour.
• From 3:45pm, Marcopolo buses will move continuously between the New Park and the Administrative Building.

Unilorin Campus Shuttle — ₦150
• Take-off from New Park: Starts at 7:00am.
• From 12:00pm, the shuttles will operate within the campus, moving across faculties and designated bus stops to convey students back to the New Park.

Registered and branded Korope — ₦150
• Operates directly between the New Park and the Faculty of Education.

Keke — ₦100
• Within Campus: ₦100 to any destination on campus from the Education Park.

We appreciate the patience and understanding of all Unilorites during the adjustment period since the system began operation. The Union did not keep silent, but rather took time to observe, assess, and ensure that necessary measures were in place before communicating this official notice.

We remain committed to ensuring that transportation within our campus remains safe, affordable, and student-friendly. Together, we move forward for the welfare and progress of every Unilorite and the development of our University community.
