Many persons who applied for the NDU transcripts in the past are complaining of delays in the processing. Many have lost their admission pursuits as a result of delays and consequent inability to present their NDU transcripts.
In the past, we have written petitions to the office of the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Samuel Gowon Edoumiekumo, citing delays in transcripts processing and the attendant consequences in the pursuit of further studies. Although the delays have been minimized, there are still certain issues that can cause your transcript to delay which may result in admission forfeiture.

There are many factors that can affect the processing of your transcript. Below are a detailed list of issues we have experienced and suggestions as to how to tackle them.
1. Incomplete Destination Address
One thing that can stall your transcript processing is an incomplete destination address. A destination address is the University/entity the transcript is being sent to. The registrar’s office often complain that courier service providers often find it hard locating the destination address of some transcripts. Hence, many of such NDU processed transcripts are returned. See the subtopic SUGGESTIONS for possible way forward.

2. Incoherent Address
The Niger Delta University does not send transcripts to addresses other than Postgraduate schools. If your address is a Law firm, employment firm, etc., NDU may refuse to send your transcript. In fact, the Registrar’s front desk officer always peruse through new transcript application to check for recipient address consistency before accepting the letter applications. So, an inconsistent address may also affect NDU transcript processing.
3. NDU Senior Staff Availability
Before now, staff availability was actually a problem for transcripts. Specifically, within the months of November, 2019 through the early months of the pandemic in 2020, namely March-June, staff availability was actually a huge challenge. In late 2019, the then registrar, Mr. Efua Berepubo was grossly engaged in the University’s social activities that some transcripts took more than a week to be signed and passed on to the exams and records office. Now at the exams and records office, the exams and records officer was also another problem as she was seldom available to sign incoming transcript, approving them for processing. If your transcript application came in a time where principal officers are very busy, your processing time may delay.
4. Staff Competence Level
At the peak of the transcript delay from November, 2019 through June, 2020, one thing angry actors always finger was the competence level of the staffers. Many complained that the staff computer awareness level was not commendable. It was a general opinion that low computer knowledge slower the transcripts processing.
5. Incomplete Records
In many cases in the past where transcripts are delayed and we have to go deep down to know what the problem was, there were reports in some cases that the records of the applicant was not complete with the exams and records office and the staff have to visit the department to get the complete record. In a particular case, it was reported that the whole of year 3 of a particular applicant record was not found. The process of going to the Department to retrieve such records may slower transcript processing time.
6. Courier Malhandling
Although cases of faults emanating from courier handling are rare, it is possible that courier handlers may have issues with proper delivery. This is where you will need to get your tracking ID from the Registrar’s office to enable you know how far with your transcript after it must have left NDU.
7. Confirmation/Verification
A final reason why your transcript may delay is verification of documents. It is possible that the University or agency receiving your transcript may have a reason to doubt the authenticity of your transcript. Hence, they may return it to the University for confirmation. So, if you used crooked means to send it, be rest assured you have lost such admission.
The World Education Service (WES), an educational entity that process international transcript oftentimeverify transcripts. WES transcripts confirmation has been very regular these days. If WES decides to confirm your transcript, be rest assured that your processing may delay a bit.
So, the above reasons are some of the factors that may delay your transcript processing. Now that you know, you can take action to rectify whatever challenges you are facing.
