OOU fees and registration deadline: 11 Jan 2026

OOU Fixes 11 January 2026 Deadline for Returning Students’ Fees and Registration for the 2025/2026 Session

The management of Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, has issued a circular to returning students on fee payment and registration for the 2025/2026 academic session. The notice applies to both full-time and part-time students.

The circular sets out two issues: the payment and registration deadline; and the conditions attached to Leave of Absence after that date.

Deadline for payment and registration

The circular, signed by the Registrar, Dr. Bayo Orukotan, sets a firm deadline for returning students to complete fee payment and registration. Students covered by the notice are required to finish both processes on or before Sunday, 11 January 2026.

The wording leaves little room for confusion. The deadline applies to the two linked steps, and it applies to the categories named in the circular.

Leave of Absence rule after the deadline

The circular includes a policy note on Leave of Absence (LOA). It states that no approval for LOA will be granted after the stipulated date, except where the request is supported by health grounds.

This condition sits alongside the registration timeline; students who may be considering LOA are expected to note the timing and the limited exception.

Date of issue and signatory

The circular was issued on Tuesday, 6 January 2026, and it was signed by the Registrar, Dr. Bayo Orukotan. The notice is directed at returning students, and it sets expectations for the 2025/2026 session.

What students are expected to do

Returning students are urged to meet the deadline for fee payment and registration to allow registration for the new academic session to proceed without delays (the circular’s emphasis remains on compliance, not negotiation). Students who may seek LOA after the deadline are expected to rely only on health grounds, as stated in the notice.
