MAPOLY 2025/2026 Academic Session Begins

The newly approved calendar mandates that all National Diploma (ND1) and Higher National Diploma (HND1) students—both Full-time and Part-time—should immediately begin their online clearance and registration.

The registration process includes the payment of acceptance fees and school fees, which must be completed before the official deadline. This initiative aims to ensure that all newly admitted students are fully integrated into the institution’s academic system before the start of lectures.

Important Registration Deadline

The Polytechnic management has emphasized that Saturday, December 6, 2025, is the final deadline for the completion of all First Semester registration activities.
