It’s not just a timetable, it’s basically a roadmap for the next few months. From arrivals to lectures, breaks, and exams, everything’s been laid out neatly so no one gets lost in the rush of university life. Let’s take a slow walk through it.

FUOTUOKE Academic Calendar 2025/2026

First Semester

The first semester kicks off in October, as students make their way back to campus, some fresh, some seasoned. The dates go like this:

  • Saturday, October 11, 2025: Students return to campus for the new session.

If you’re counting, that’s a full run from October to March, with breaks, studies, and more than enough caffeine in between.

Second Semester

Barely a month later, the second lap begins. You know how fast time flies in school; one minute you’re unpacking, the next you’re cramming for finals again.

  • Saturday, April 04, 2026: Students return to campus.

  • Monday – Friday, July 13–17, 2026: Revision week, time to dust off those notes.
  • Monday, July 20, 2026: Second semester exams begin.
  • Friday, August 07, 2026: Exams wrap up, another sigh of relief.
  • Thursday, September 17, 2026: Special Senate meets to consider results.

It’s a pretty steady run from April to September. Everything’s timed like clockwork, though we all know there’ll be small campus delays here and there. Still, FUOTUOKE seems to have kept things simple.

Summary of FUOTUOKE Academic Calendar

For those who prefer a quick snapshot, here’s how the school broke it down:

First Semester

  • 12 weeks of lectures
  • 1 week of revision
  • 4 weeks of exams
  • 4 weeks for marking and result compilation
    Total: 21 weeks of academic activities

Second Semester

  • 1 week of revision
  • 3 weeks of exams
  • 1 week for Student’s Week

If you ask me, that’s quite a balanced spread. Enough time to study, rest, and still sneak in some student life.
