STUDENT AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT

The Student Affairs

At the Students' Affairs, we serve as the first port of entry to all freshers into Rhema University Nigeria, Aba.

We receive them and take through an orientation programme during which we acquaint them with the workings of the University, unveil to them our culture, core values, as well as the vision and mission of the University.

We get them to know that we are faith-based institution, how to relate with staff and fellow students, and the consequences of violating our rules and regulations.

We get them to know what our expectations of them are with regards to learning and character, and the rules and regulations governing their stay in Rhema University

In the course of our orientation, we formally introduce them to our  entrepreneurship programme, which will empower not just to be job seekers but job creators when they grauduate Rhema University.

All through their stay in Rhema University Nigeria, we are always at the students' beck and call, while instilling in them the fear of God, which is the beginning of wisdom.

Councelling Unit

The Rhema University Guidance and Counseling Unit has gone a long way to touch and change lives. As the  Chancellor insists, no child is a waste or should  be abandoned for reason of bad behaviour or character, and so as the Counselor my work involves counseling and helping our students stay focused while directing them to the path of excellence in character and learning, and instilling in them the fear of the Lord,which is the beginning of wisdom.

For those with difficulties in their academics, we help them develop effective study habits, as well as equip them with skills to handle their personal issues.

It hasn't been easy dealing students considering their diverse backgrounds, but God has been the source of our strength.

None of our student will be lost.

Mrs. Chidi Hillary-Umeh Students' Counselor Rhema University Nigeria
