CBU Management Reduces Surcharge From K1,500 to K150 For Student

The Copperbelt University (CBU) management has announced a reduction of the surcharge imposed on students from K1500 to K150.

CBU vice chancellor Professor Naison Ngoma told journalists this afternoon after a consultative meeting with Higher Education Minister Dr. Brian Mushimba that management had taken heed of guidance from the minister and that the surcharge for the general populous of students has been reduced to K150.

The vice chancellor however clarified that those that were suspended for their role in the riot that led to the indefinite closure of CBU in April this year will be charged K1000 each while those that were expelled but later reinstated at the mercy of the minister and on suspension for an academic year will still pay K1500 each upon returning to the institution.

He added that the K150 will have to be paid by all returning students before they are re-admitted at the institution.
