By the institution’s tradition, the students who had failed to present themselves for the matriculation, automatically lose their admissions into the institution.

This is because matriculation is the actual induction and oath-taking to verify that one has become a bonafide student of an institution,” he said.

If you have not registered and gone through all the processes of a university and as well failed to take the oath, it means you have lost the admission because matriculation seals off the processes of admission and registration”.

We do not know why these students have decided not to turn up for the matriculation but we are actually not happy about it”, the VC said.
