Important Guidelines for AFUED Students 2025/2026 Session
To make the most of the academic calendar, here are practical tips that can help students stay on track throughout the session:
Register on Time. The penalty system is clearly structured and unforgiving. Registering within the standard window saves money and prevents administrative complications that could delay access to lectures and examinations.
Prepare Early for Teaching Practice. Degree III, IV, and NCE III students should use the first weeks of October to organise their lesson plan materials, secure appropriate teaching attire, and familiarise themselves with their assigned schools before the orientation period begins.
Plan Around Public Holidays. The Christmas holidays (25th – 26th December 2025), New Year (1st January 2026), and Workers' Day (1st May 2026) are built into the calendar. Students should factor these into their study and assignment schedules.
Use the Revision Period Wisely. Both semesters include a dedicated four-day revision window before examinations. While this may seem brief, students who maintain consistent study habits throughout the semester will find the revision period sufficient for final consolidation.
