Federal University Dutse Academic Calendar

The management of the Federal University Dutse has officially released the approved academic calendar for the 2025/2026 session. It outlines every major activity, from when registration starts to when lectures begin, how long each semester will last, dates for examinations, breaks, board meetings, and the official start of the next session.

For both new and returning students, having the Federal University Dutse academic calendar early makes academic planning much easier. It helps you know when to resume, when to complete your registration, how to organise your course load, and when to prepare for tests and exams. It also helps you avoid missing key deadlines that could affect your academic progress. Parents and guardians can also use it to plan, especially for resumption dates, travel, and financial arrangements.

Below is the full approved Federal University Dutse academic calendar for the 2025/2026 academic session.
