ENUGU STATE UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF POSTGRADUATE STUDIES PROPOSAL FOR THE PG. BOARD TO APPROVE THE REGISTRATION OF CANDIDATES WITH PASS IN MATHEMATICS, ENGLISH AND LITERATURE IN ENGLISH. Due to the very paucity of the number of candidates who are registering as a result of the NUC Benchmark stipulations, barring those with Pass in English Language, Mathematics and Literature in English from registering, it has become imperative to request the Postgraduate Board to decide as follows: a) Those with 5 years of post First Degree & HND qualification to be allowed to register. b) The New Benchmark has been queried by the Committee of Deans of Nigerian Universities and, therefore, is still being reviewed. c) There were several errors and inconsistencies that would require its total implementation from being effective immediately. ACTION SOUGHT: The Board is called upon to approve a waiver, so that those with Pass in Mathematics, English Language and Literature in English with 5 year post First Degree/HND. with these short falls, can be registered.
