Both the College of Education and the College of Medicine and Health Sciences have the fewest graduates, with 19 and 11 respectively.

According to UR management, the decision to organize the upcoming mini graduation was based on the desire to offer level playing ground to all finishing students who wound up their studies in 2021 to celebrate their hard work in a single year. The intention is to do whatever it takes on UR’s part to maximise everyone’s chances of moving on with employment or further studies.

At least 333 students will be feted during the University of Rwanda end of year Graduation.
