The school fees have undergone a significant increase recently. Different prices for indigenous and non-indigenous students have always been one of the specific features of the university. The situation has remained the same: locals and non-locals need to pay different amounts.
So, the fees for today are:
- If you are a fresher (it doesn’t matter whether you come in through UTME or via the Direct Entry program), you need to pay N52,000 if you are local and N93,000 if you are not. The amounts differ depending on the course you choose
- If you are a returning student (200Level, 300Level, 400Level, and 500Level), you will pay N27,000 to N60,000 for locals and non-locals respectively. Also, the amounts will differ depending on the course you choose

As the highest authorities of the institution explain the situation, the increase was dictated by a strict need and there’s nothing that can be done to avoid it. There were costs that needed to be covered; otherwise, the institution would not have operated that smoothly. Besides that, as the management of the institution said, they have been keeping the fees the same for five years.
It was sad news for many students because the fees have stopped being that affordable. Yet, the management explained further that they were aware of such an outcome. In order to help those students who can’t afford paying the whole amount in a lump or can’t afford paying in a supposed scheme, they offered a possibility of a student loan. This loan is supposed to be paid back in installment.
