Starnet Educational Desk — July 11, 2025
Al-Istiqama University, Sumaila has officially confirmed that the second semester of the 2024/2025 academic session will begin on Sunday, July 13, 2025. This applies to all returning students — except for a designated group of final-year students in specific health-related courses.
If you’re a student at Al-Istiqama, it’s time to pack your bags. The countdown to the new semester has begun, and the university isn’t slowing down for anyone.
Special Notice for Final-Year Health Students
Students in 400-level Medical Laboratory Science, Nursing Sciences, and Public Health are not expected to resume on July 13. Instead, their resumption date has been shifted by two weeks to Sunday, July 27, 2025.
This special arrangement is to accommodate program-specific requirements, but all students in this category are still urged to stay alert and prepare accordingly.
No Delays, No Excuses: Lectures Begin Immediately
The university has made its policy very clear:
Lectures start immediately after resumption. No delays. No exceptions.
Al-Istiqama emphasizes that class attendance is not optional. Students who fail to attend lectures risk being barred from sitting for examinations. So, if you’ve been putting off returning to campus, now’s the time to get your things in order.
Final Reminder
There’s no room for procrastination this time. Whether you’re a fresh returnee or a final-year student on the waiting list, this is your heads-up: be prepared, be punctual, and take attendance seriously.
