The University of Jos (UNIJOS) has announced that the first-semester examinations will commence on Monday, April 13, 2026, following the earlier postponement of some papers due to heightened security concerns in the state.

This decision came after a management meeting on Friday, April 3, 2026, which assessed recent threats to student safety that had led to an extension of the Easter holiday.
