MY COVENANT UNIVERSITY 100LEVEL EXPERIENCE

 

My experience as a 100-level student of Covenant University after spending half of the semester has been both challenging and rewarding. Coming into the university, everything felt new and overwhelming—from the strict rules and regulations to the academic prowess. The first few weeks were especially tough as I had to adjust to waking up early, attending chapel services, and moving from one lecture to another almost nonstop.

Academically, the workload has been relatively easier than what I originally thought it will be like. Courses like CIT and ACC (as I am an accounting student) are ones I relatively look forward to each week. At first, managing my time was difficult, but as the weeks passed, I began to understand the importance of planning ahead and studying. The lecturers are disciplined and knowledgeable, and although they are strict, it is evident they have the studentÂ’s success at heart.

Beyond academics, life in Covenant University has helped me grow personally. Living in the hostel taught me independence (as I was a day student throughout my secondary school), responsibility, and how to relate with people from different backgrounds. The environment is the one place I am still not used to as my college building is situated by a tree full of bats and walking to class while passing through the bats can be quite frightening.

Spiritually, the university places strong emphasis on moral and spiritual development through chapel services and fellowship activities, which has helped strengthen my faith and character.

Overall, spending half of the semester in Covenant University has shaped me academically, socially, and spiritually. Though the journey is demanding, I believe it is preparing me for a successful future. I canÂ’t wait to successfully finish my four-year program in this prestigious school.
