Kwara State University (KWASU) was established in 2009 as a community service and entrepreneurial-focused higher learning institution under the Dr. Bukola Saraki administration. The institution has seven faculties and 44 departments in its several campuses in Malete, Osi, and Ilesa-Baruba. KWASU offers a wide array of courses in its different colleges to both undergraduate and postgraduate applicants and already existing students of several disciplines. In addition to its conventional means of carrying out academic activities, KWASU offers e-learning. In the progression of time, the institution has adopted several means to make it easier for students to gain access to many services from any location. This is mostly done on the internet using the KWASU portal.
The KWASU portal is specifically designed to enable returning students, prospective applicants, and even staff to stay abreast regarding their individual profiles in the university with ease. In order to access the portal, one needs to have recognized access. That is, those who already have accounts (staff and returning students, including postgraduate students) supply in their username and password while new and prospective applicants need to create an account first of all.
