This policy is designed to safeguard students’ wellbeing and uphold the institution’s values.
Raw food items
Among the banned items are raw food products. The university discourages students from bringing raw food to campus, as cooking is not permitted in hostels. This rule ensures safety and prevents fire hazards that could arise from cooking equipment.
Hard drugs and cigarettes
Covenant University has a zero-tolerance policy towards hard drugs such as Indian hemp and other illicit substances. Cigarettes are also strictly forbidden.
Alcohol and weapons
Alcoholic drinks, lethal weapons, guns, bullets, and injections are all prohibited. The university prioritises safety and security, ensuring that the campus remains a safe space for learning and personal growth.
Cooking utensils and appliances
Students are not allowed to bring cooking utensils such as hot plates, rice cookers, toasters, microwaves, blenders, or saucepans. Larger appliances like refrigerators, grillers, and washing machines are also banned.
Clothing restrictions
Interestingly, Covenant University also restricts certain clothing materials. Jeans, jean-like fabrics, chinos, corduroy, and what the institution describes as “diabolic materials” are not permitted.
Entertainment devices
Television sets, video machines, DVD and VCD players, TV cards, antennas, and ungodly musical tapes or CDs are banned. The university also prohibits phones, SIM cards, sim-enabled devices, and gaming consoles such as PlayStation.
