UB fails to issue graduates certificates

It  is now more than three weeks since Mmadikolo, as the public higher learning institution is called, held its graduation ceremony, but the graduates are yet to be furnished with their certificates. The institution is set to incur costs after promising to courier the certificates to the graduates.

A notice to students on the issue seen by this publication from the Academic Services management states that the delay has been caused by a technical hitch experienced during the production of certificates, which were supposed to have been issued immediately after graduation. “We have engaged a technical team to work on the challenges and we do not hope that they will be able to have everything back to normality within a fortnight. We intend to send your certificates to you by courier once they are ready. We therefore humbly requests you to leave your contacts with our member of staff responsible for your faculties so that we can call you once they are ready and send them accordingly. We do apologise for the inconvenience caused and thank you in advance for your understanding,” read the notice to the students.
