The National Universities Commission (NUC) has given a nod for the commencement of Bachelor of Nursing Degree at Crescent University, Abeokuta.

The regulatory body also granted approval for the commencement of Anatomy and Physiology after resource verification visits by three teams of experts to the university a few weeks ago.

In a letter dated 27th October 2021 with reference number NUC/AP/P21/VOL.1/92 addressed to Crescent University vice-chancellor and signed by Dr N. B. Salisu on behalf of the Executive Secretary of NUC, the three programmes already assessed by panels of experts in 2021 have been approved.

The letter reads in part "I am directed to inform the vice-chancellor that the Executive Secretary has considered and approved the establishment of the full-time mode of the following undergraduate programmes to be run in the main campus of the university with effect from the 2021/2022 academic session: B.NSc. Nursing, B.Sc. Physiology and B.Sc. Human Anatomy".

Meanwhile, the vice-chancellor, Prof. Ibraheem Gbajabiamila while receiving the news, said the approval is a reward for the dedication and hard work of all stakeholders, urging prospective students to join the 2021/2022 academic session for Nursing, Physiology and Anatomy.
