GUU Resumption: What Students Should Expect
The return of both fresh and returning students will breathe new life into the university’s campus. Lecture halls, hostels, and social spots will once again come alive with academic and extracurricular activities.
For freshers, October 18 will be the beginning of their Gregory University journey. Returning students, on the other hand, will be resuming their normal academic flow with lectures, assignments, and campus events.
Key Dates on Gregory University’s Academic Calendar
Beyond the resumption, several important events have been highlighted on the GUU calendar:

The Student Work Experience Programme (SWEP)
The five-week SWEP programme, which began on September 9, 2025, provides students with valuable exposure to real-life applications of their chosen fields. It is set to conclude with a closing ceremony on October 9, 2025.
For many, SWEP bridges the gap between theory and practice, equipping students with practical skills that prepare them for future careers.
