Progression Criteria For New Students… No Repeating & No Progression With Reference- States USL

The University of Sierra Leone (USL) has maintained that Year 1 students will no longer be allowed by the University to repeat or progress to year 2 with a reference.

This was made known by the University in their notice dated 16th January 2024 noting that starting this academic year, there will be no repeating in year 1 and no student will progress to year 2 with any reference.

“This is to reiterate the message of the Deputy Vice Chancellor on orientation day informing all new students of the regulation for progression to year 2,” USL stated.

The University furthered that students who are referred in not more than two modules will be allowed to take re-sit examinations and that those who clear the referred modules will progress to year 2.

“In the event they fail to pass the referred modules(s), they will be withdrawn from the course and the college,” USL affirmed.
