The Vice-Chancellor of Caleb University, Imota, Lagos, Prof Olalekan Asikhia, has approved the revised academic calendar for the second semester of the 2025/2026 academic session.
Members of the university Community have been informed that the first semester will end on Saturday, 28 March 2026. After that, second semester activities will begin in line with the approved schedule.
First semester closing date
The first semester will end on Saturday, 28 March 2026.
Second semester dates by level
The revised calendar gives separate dates for 100 Level, 200 Level, 300 Level and final year students. It also separates SIWES and non-SIWES students where required; that distinction matters here.

Attendance rule for examinations
The university also reminded students that the 70% attendance requirement remains in force. Any student who does not meet that mark will not be allowed to sit for examinations.
What students should note
The revised Caleb University calendar sets different return dates and exam periods for each group of students. SIWES students have an earlier timetable, while 100 Level and final year students have their own separate schedule.
The attendance rule sits beside the calendar for a reason; dates matter and class presence matters too.
