ADUSTECH Postpones First Semester Mid-Semester Break

Published on Feb 16, 2026 • Education

The Aliko Dangote University of Science and Technology, Wudil (ADUSTECH) has announced the postponement of its First Semester Mid-Semester Break for the 2025/2026 academic session.

In a memo released by the Senate Secretariat and dated 14 February 2026, the University explained that the break originally scheduled from Monday, 16 February to Sunday, 22 February 2026 will no longer hold as planned.

New Break Schedule

Instead, the University has merged the postponed mid-semester break with the upcoming Sallah break. Consequently, students and staff will now observe a combined break from:

16 March to 24 March 2026

Reason for the Adjustment

According to the memo, the Chairman of the Senate approved the change due to delays in the commencement of lectures in some courses. In addition, the approaching Ramadan fasting period influenced the decision.

By adjusting the calendar, the University aims to ensure better academic flow and allow adequate time for lecture coverage before the break.

Directive to the University Community

The University has directed all faculties, departments, and units to take note of the new arrangement and comply accordingly.

Shehu Saleh, Academic Secretary, signed the memo on behalf of the Registrar.

Students and staff are advised to update their academic plans in line with the revised schedule and stay informed through official University communication channels.
