There are three weeks before the start of the 2023 academic year for PNG universities and colleges. Most higher education institutions released their new intake and continuing students lists, but the University of Goroka (UoG) has yet to release the Non-School Leavers acceptance list for 2023.
Registration Dates are as follows: 6th February 2023 for First Years and 13-17 February 2023 for Continuing Students.
For New Intakes, you have less than 20 days to get ready and go to UoG.
When is UoG releasing 2023 NSL acceptance list?
If you are a non-school leaver, Grade 12 school leavers or pre-service and in-service continuing student, leave a comment about your experience and what you think in the comment section below.
UoG 2023 Non-School Leavers Acceptance List
The University of Goroka 2023 Non-School Leavers List is not released. Many pre-service and in-service NSL applicants are anticipating the list to come out because it is now the third week of January 2023.
Other PNG universities and colleges have released their NSL and continuing student lists. Also, DHERST released (19/01/2023) the TESAS Award List for all the students on HECAS and AES.
Note that the selection of non-school leavers is the sole responsibility of UoG. The university's selection committee and department heads have a say on NSL selection, not DHERST. When the list does not come out on time, there is something not right with the non-school leavers' selectors.
No one really knows when the UoG non-school leavers selection for 2023 is coming out.
It would be better if the university council puts out a notice explaining the cause of the delay and clearly states when the NSL list is coming out! Sadly, it seems too late now that DHERST has released the TESAS Awards List 2023.
UoG 2023 Pre-service and In-service Continuing Students List
The University of Goroka did well in 2021 when they informed the continuing students about their progression status just before they left for the Christmas holiday. This was due to COVID-19 measures, but it worked well because there was less pressure on Students Admin during the 2022 registration week.
It seems that UoG did not do the same in 2022 which is why many continuing students are also waiting for the progression list to come out for 2023.
If you are waiting for UoG 2023 Continuing Students List to come out, you are better off going to the university and finding out yourself.
If you are unable to travel to UoG, call a friend or UoG on 532 1863 to find out. That way, you'll get some closure as you prepare for the 2023 academic year to start.
New Intake School Leavers 2023 - University of Goroka
By now, the UoG school leavers should receive their acceptance letters. You should know about the 2023 UoG fees, admission information and when to arrive at the university for registration.
UoG News Updates 2023
UoG website is an important platform where students (new and continuing), parents/guardians and stakeholders get official news and updates. It needs updating, especially at this time.
The University of Goroka website (news section) was last updated on the 12th of January 2023 with the list of Exclusion and Terminated students.
When is UoG 2023 Non-School Leavers Acceptance Lists Coming Out?
Three weeks before the 2023 academic year starts, many are asking the question - is it late. Sadly, it is late now - the delay can cause a lot of anxiety among NSL applicants and DHERST has released the TESAS Awards List.
More so, what about the self-sponsored students, overseas students, provincial government-sponsored students and new in-service students? It's a shame UoG cannot communicate vital admission information clearly and in a timely manner.
We would like to think that UoG will release the 2023 Non-School Leavers Acceptance list, including the Continuing Students and School Leavers' lists soon.
Hope that UoG updates its website with the latest admission information this week so that students are informed of what is going on.
