UNIUYO has opened applications for its 2025/2026 Sandwich Programmes under the School of Continuing Education. This post breaks down available courses, who can apply, and how to get started. If you’re chasing a degree while juggling life, this might be for you.
You know how some people say, “School isn’t for everyone?” Well, UNIUYO says, “Try again, but this time, on your own schedule.”
If you’ve been working, raising kids, or just living life while quietly wishing you could still grab that degree, this might be your shot. The University of Uyo’s Sandwich Programmes are back for the 2025/2026 academic session, and the form is live. Not much noise about it, but yes, the door is open.
What is this Sandwich thing?
No, not bread. Think of it like learning in slices. These programmes let you study during holiday periods — usually around school breaks — so it doesn’t clash with work or life too much. Perfect for teachers, busy folks, or people looking to upskill without dropping everything.
