38 weeks from today will be 14 Jan 2026, a Wednesday. Looking forward by quarters of the year means 38 weeks from today changes fiscal calendars and might even carry us into the next year. Currently in the end of of April with 30 days in the month, I would first count the days to May - you'll need this for your calendar, then multiple 38 by days to get 266. Then I'll be able to count 266 days from May until getting to Wednesday January 14, 2026.

How we calculated 38 weeks from today

All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how adding 38 weeks to today's date gets calculated on each visit:

Started with date inputs: starting point: 23 Apr, Units to add: 38 weeks, and year: 2025
Noted your current time of year: 7 days in end of April
Added 38 weeks from current day: 23 Apr, factoring in there are 7 days left in before May
Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the 2025 fiscal calendar.

Ways to calculate 38 weeks from today

Just calculate it: Start with a time from today calculator. 38 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the days in + all number of days in each month and the number of days in 2025. Simply add your weeks and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
Use April's calendar: Begin by identifying on a calendar, note that it’s Wednesday, and the total days in May (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until next year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count forward 38 times by weeks, adding weeks from 23 Apr.
Use Excel: Regardless of unit type, I use day calculations here. Type =TODAY()+38 into the cell. If you want to add weeks, multiply your day by 7 and months/years will take their own calculation due to the changing days of the week. To find 38 weeks workdays, convert to days but use =WORKDAY(TODAY(), [number of days], [holidays]) into the cell. [number of days] is how many working days you want to add, and [holidays] is an optional range of cells that contain dates of holidays to exclude.

38 working weeks from today

38 weeks is Wednesday January 14, 2026 or could be Thursday April 30, 2026 if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 38 weeks and only adds by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Wednesday January 14, 2026 date.
