Edo College of Nursing (EDOCNS) Resumption Date 2025/2026
Edo State College of Nursing Sciences (EDOCNS) has announced that new students for the 2025–2026 academic session will resume on Monday, 20th October 2025. Halls of residence will open two days earlier, and students are advised to complete fee payments before clearance begins. Read on for all key details and reminders.
So, the waiting’s done. Edo State College of Nursing Sciences—yes, the ever-busy EDOCNS—has fixed a date. The school has officially announced that all newly admitted students for the 2025–2026 academic session will resume on Monday, 20th October 2025. That’s the day the real nursing life begins—lectures, labs, and everything in between.
But here’s something to keep in mind: the Halls of Residence will open a bit earlier, on Saturday 18th and Sunday 19th October. So if you’re the type that likes settling in before the first bell rings, those are your days to move in. Don’t wait till the last minute to drag your boxes through the hostel gates, because trust me, you won’t like that queue.
What New Students Should Know Before Resumption
Now, let’s talk money—because clearance doesn’t start without it. All newly admitted students are advised to pay their school fees and any other financial obligations before arrival. Think of it as clearing the road before the car starts moving. If your payment isn’t done, your clearance might get stuck somewhere in the middle of paperwork and signatures.
You’d rather show up ready than start running around under the hot Benin sun for missing papers.
Moving Into the Halls of Residence
The school’s management has opened up the hostels two days before resumption to give everyone breathing room. Saturday and Sunday are your window to settle in, meet your roommates, and maybe decorate your space a little before lectures begin. Those two days? Golden. Once classes start, there’s barely time to rest your head, let alone unpack properly.
And if you’re new to campus life, here’s one small tip—make friends early. Nursing school can be demanding, and having people around who understand the struggle makes it easier.

Final Thoughts
