Chittagong University residential halls to reopen on October 18

After a hiatus of more than one and a half years, Chittagong University (CU) is all set to reopen its residential halls to students on October 18.

Only master’s and fourth-year undergrad students will be staying in the dormitories upon reopening, confirmed Chittagong University Acting Registrar M Monirul Hasan on Tuesday afternoon.

The decision to reopen the residential halls was taken at a virtual meeting of the vice-chancellor, pro vice-chancellor, registrar and hall provosts on Monday.

Students will need to have taken at least one dose of the Covid vaccine to access the residential facilities, Monirul said.
