5 Things You Should Know Before Resuming Into FUTA as a Fresher

1. RIGHT Information is Power

You might have heard this sentence several times that - "Information is the key" | Of course, this is quite right and FUTA is not exceptional. Luckily; information is easier to access because of the level of ICT knowledge in FUTA which makes it easier to get informed through the official FUTA Website (www.futa.edu.ng).

However just as Information is the key, MISINFORMATION can also be disastrous. This is why as a FRESHER, you must be careful of the source of Information. Just as a popular quote once stated;

"Do not Trust the Source of a News, Trust the Reliability of the News itself"

Some recommended source of reliable information are FUTA Official Fanpage | FUTASU Twitter, | FutaNewsandGist.com

2. You Should Try not to Miss the Orientation Programs.

Orientation programs are programs designed to help you as a Fresher settle quickly in school. At the beginning of the session, the Federal University of Technology, Akure always organize orientation programs for FRESHERS so as to be informed of some certain important information about the school.

You can find the date for FUTA Orientation program at the School Academic Calendar.

3. Never Under-Estimate the Power of Reading Materials

READING MATERIALS not only allow you to better understand the topic that you were taught in class but also gives you an edge on what you should know it. You'll find a lot of reading materials here on FutaNewsandGist and you can as well Download Past Questions to help you better prepare for exams.

These soft copy materials have a lot of advantages such as offering a flexible means of gaining knowledge.

4. Open Your Mind To Opportunities

One of the most interesting thing about the Federal University of Technology, Akure is that it has a lot of opportunities for the minds that are willing and ready to learn.

Opportunities such as the Developer Student Clubs, Entrepreneurship programs, ICT Seminars, Scholarships and etc are something you should open your mind to so you can be able to build yourself intellectually as well as level your skills.

You can view some of the Opportunities in FUTA here that we've published already on FutaNewsandGist.

5. Hope For the Best, Prepare for the Worse

While there are a lot of beautiful things about FUTA; it is not easier as it sounds. Before you can level up your skills, you have to be ready to commit yourself. And before you can make it to the Deans List; you have to work very hard in your academics.

This is why a certain #MondayMotivation Quote on the FutaNewsandGist website says; "You should Hope for the Best, but Prepare for the Worse"

Wishing you the very best!
