FUHSA Mid-Semester Break Closure Notice

Federal University of Health Sciences, Azare (FUHSA) has announced an immediate mid-semester break following a directive from the Bauchi State Government on the temporary closure of schools across the state due to security concerns.

This notice affects all students of the Federal University of Health Sciences, Azare and explains why the break was approved, what students should do now, and how teaching will continue through online learning during this period.

Why FUHSA is closed for mid-semester break

The Federal University of Health Sciences, Azare was asked to close after a state-wide order from the Bauchi State Government on school safety.

An Emergency Senate Meeting took place on Monday, 24 November 2025. After this meeting, a circular signed by the Registrar, Halima Garba, directed all students to:

• Leave the campus at once.
• Wait for further messages on resumption from the university.

This step is a safety measure for students and staff, based on guidance from the state government.

Key points from the official circular

The circular from the Registrar gives clear instructions so that students know what to do next. The main points are:

• The closure starts immediately.
• All students must vacate the campus as soon as possible.
• Students should stay alert for new updates on when to return.

Students are expected to follow these steps without delay to support the safety plan set by the government and the university leadership.

Academic activities during the break

During the mid-semester break, all face-to-face classes and on-campus academic work are suspended.

The university has stated that virtual learning platforms will be made available. This means students can:

• Join online classes where provided.
• Download notes and reading materials.
• Keep up with course outlines from home.

Students are advised to use this break for:

• Personal study of lecture notes.
• Reading core textbooks and handouts.
• Revision for upcoming tests and examinations.

A student, for example, can set a simple daily plan such as two hours of reading in the morning, one hour of practice questions in the afternoon, and one hour of group study online in the evening.

Resumption notice and next steps for FUHSA students

Normal academic work at FUHSA will restart only after an official resumption notice is released by the university. Until that message comes out, students should stay calm, follow safety guidance from the Bauchi State Government, and keep their focus on study and exam preparation through the online platforms that will be shared.
