How To Apply
FESU considers applications from all universities, colleges, education institutions and students organizations located federal states and the capital city the signatory federal members of Somalia.
In order to apply, FESU needs to know if the institution is registered and is a member of the collective full member in its regional states directory and whether the institution would like to apply for full, honorary or associate membership. After receiving this information FESU will send the application form and more information about the application procedure.
Applicant universities need a letter of recommendation from the president of the collective full member in their regional state. If there is no sub-national rectors’ conference or the national rectors’ conference as federal level is not a member of any edu-council protocol, applicant universities need letters of recommendation from three governmental institutions federally and sub-nationally.
All applications are first reviewed by the membership committee and then passed on to the FESU Council for a final decision.
