Covenant University Maintains Ban on Phones and Cooking for Students

Covenant University in 2025 reaffirmed its strict policy prohibiting students from owning mobile phones on campus, aiming to minimize distractions and enhance academic focus. The institution also clarified that students are not allowed to cook on campus, regardless of dietary preferences.

This policy has sparked debates among students and parents, with concerns raised about staying connected and accessing digital resources. Covenant University's administration emphasized that academic discipline and focus remain top priorities, leading to the continuation of these restrictions despite some objections.
