FEDERAL UNIVERSITY, WUKARI (FUWUKARI) ISSUES NOTICE TO STUDENTS ON OPENING OF SCHOOL FEES PAYMENT PORTAL FOR THE 2026/2027 ACADEMIC SESSION

The Federal University Wukari (FUWUKARI) has announced the payment arrangement for school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session. The university made this known in a circular addressed to all students and issued from the Office of the Vice-Chancellor.

The circular was signed by Oriaku Akachukwu Loveday, of the Vice-Chancellor’s Office, on behalf of the Vice-Chancellor.

WELCOME MESSAGE TO STUDENTS

According to the circular, the Vice-Chancellor extended a welcome message to all students on their return to campus for the second semester of the 2025/2026 academic session.

The university also reminded all students of the need to be of good conduct and to strictly abide by the University’s rules and regulations.

WHEN THE PORTAL WILL OPEN

Students were informed that the portal for payment of school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session will be opened at the commencement of examinations for the current semester.

The portal will remain open until three (3) weeks after resumption of the next semester. This gives students a total period of six (6) weeks within which to make all necessary payments.

KEY POINTS AT A GLANCE

• The portal opens at the commencement of examinations for the current semester.

• The portal stays open until three weeks after resumption of the next semester.

• The total payment window is six (6) weeks.

• After this period, the portal will be closed.

CONSEQUENCE OF FAILING TO PAY ON TIME

The university stated that after the stipulated period, the portal will be closed. Any student who fails to pay within the stipulated period will be required to defer the semester or session (2026/2027).

Students are therefore strongly advised to make their payments within the six-week window to avoid being asked to defer.

NELFUND FOR ELIGIBLE STUDENTS

The university also advised eligible students to apply for the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND), to help them meet their financial obligations.

WHAT STUDENTS SHOULD DO

Students are advised to take the following steps:

1. Take note of when the portal will open, which is at the commencement of examinations for the current semester.

2. Plan their payments early, so that they are completed within the six-week period.

3. Eligible students who need support should apply for the NELFUND loan on time.

4. Make payments only through the official school portal and keep their receipts safe.

5. Continue to observe the University’s rules and regulations at all times.

ADVICE TO STUDENTS AND PARENTS

Students and parents are advised to rely only on the official channels of the university for information on fee payment, and to avoid paying money into any account or to any individual not authorised by the university.

The management of the university urged all students to be guided accordingly.

Thank you!
