Use the filters above to compare by ownership type (Federal, State or Private), by state, or search by name.
Fee information is sourced from institution detail pages and publicly available data.

Each institution name links to its full detail page with complete information on courses, cut-off marks, Post-UTME, admission requirements and hostel availability.
⚠ Important Disclaimer: School fee figures shown are approximate and based on publicly available information.
Actual fees may differ based on your course of study, year of study, indigene/non-indigene status, and current session charges.
Additional levies — accommodation, departmental fees, faculty dues, sports fees, medical fees and student union dues — are not always included.
This page is for comparison and research purposes only. Always confirm with the official bursar's office.
💰 Fee Guide by University Type
Federal Universities
59 institutions
₦15,000 – ₦150,000 per session
Average: ₦50,000 – ₦80,000 per session
Federal universities charge some of the lowest tuition in Nigeria due to heavy government subsidy. The Federal Government funds infrastructure and staff salaries, keeping student fees minimal. However, the 2023 removal of the ASUU-negotiated fee cap means some federal universities now charge slightly higher than before.
What affects fees
Course type (medicine/law cost more), accommodation, departmental levies, faculty dues, sports fees and student union dues.
Hostel cost
₦20,000 – ₦80,000 per session
State Universities
61 institutions
₦50,000 – ₦500,000 per session
Average: ₦150,000 – ₦250,000 per session
State universities set fees independently based on the financial capacity of their state government. Fees for indigenes (students from the same state) are typically lower than non-indigene fees. Rivers State University, Lagos State University (LASU) and Ekiti State University are examples with varying fee structures.
What affects fees
Indigene vs non-indigene status, course of study, year of study, state government policy.
Hostel cost
₦30,000 – ₦150,000 per session
Private Universities
138 institutions
₦300,000 – ₦5,000,000+ per session
Average: ₦800,000 – ₦2,000,000 per session
Private universities in Nigeria are fully self-funded and charge the highest fees. Fees vary enormously — Covenant University, Babcock University and American University of Nigeria charge premium fees while others like Chrisland University and Landmark University fall in the mid-range. All private university fees must be approved by the NUC.
What affects fees
Institution prestige, facilities, course (medical programmes cost significantly more), scholarship availability.
Hostel cost
₦150,000 – ₦800,000 per session (often compulsory)
💡 How to Reduce Your University Fee Costs
1Choose a federal university — federal universities receive the highest government subsidy and have the lowest base tuition in Nigeria. Your JAMB score, O'Level grades and Post-UTME performance determine admission.
2Study in your home state — if you choose a state university, always apply as an indigene. Indigene fees are typically 30–60% cheaper than non-indigene rates.
3Apply for scholarships early — the Federal Government Scholarship Board, state government bursaries, NNPCL scholarship and corporate scholarships (Dangote, MTN, Chevron) can cover tuition partially or fully. Apply in your first year.
4Check if off-campus accommodation is allowed — at many federal and state universities you can live off-campus at lower cost than the official hostel fee. Private universities often make on-campus accommodation compulsory.
5Compare programme-specific fees — arts, social science and education programmes cost less than medicine, law, pharmacy and engineering at every institution type. The same university can have a 3× fee difference between departments.

Frequently Asked Questions — University Fees in Nigeria 2026
How much are university fees in Nigeria in 2026?
University fees in Nigeria vary significantly by institution type. Federal universities charge between ₦15,000 and ₦150,000 per session due to government subsidy. State universities charge ₦50,000 to ₦500,000 depending on the state and whether you are an indigene. Private universities are the most expensive, ranging from ₦300,000 to over ₦5,000,000 per session for premium institutions. Additional charges including accommodation, departmental levies and medical fees are not included in these figures.
Which universities in Nigeria have the cheapest school fees?
Federal universities generally have the cheapest school fees in Nigeria. Universities like the University of Ibadan (UI), Ahmadu Bello University (ABU Zaria), Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU Ile-Ife), University of Lagos (UNILAG) and University of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN) charge relatively low fees due to Federal Government subsidy. Among state universities, indigene students at institutions in less commercially developed states often pay lower fees.
Which are the most expensive universities in Nigeria?
The most expensive universities in Nigeria are private institutions. American University of Nigeria (AUN) Yola, Babcock University Ilishan-Remo, Covenant University Ota, Afe Babalola University (ABUAD) Ado-Ekiti, and Pan-Atlantic University Lagos charge the highest fees — ranging from ₦1.5 million to over ₦5 million per session. Medical and law programmes at these institutions cost significantly more than arts or social science programmes.
Do federal universities charge the same fees?
No. While all federal universities are subsidised by the Federal Government, fees differ between institutions and between courses. Medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and law programmes cost more than social sciences or arts. Additional levies — departmental dues, student union fees, sports fees, faculty fees and library fees — also differ between universities. Always check the specific institution's bursar portal for the current breakdown.
How much is school fees for Medicine in Nigerian universities?
Medicine (MBBS) is the most expensive undergraduate programme in Nigerian universities. In federal universities, medical students pay ₦50,000 – ₦200,000 per session. In state universities, medical fees range from ₦200,000 – ₦700,000. Private universities charge the most — between ₦1,500,000 and ₦4,000,000 per session for MBBS. This includes tuition only; clinical attachment fees, lab fees and hospital levies are extra.
What is the difference between indigene and non-indigene fees at state universities?
State universities in Nigeria charge different fees based on state of origin. Indigenes (students from the state where the university is located) typically pay 30% – 60% less than non-indigenes. For example, a Lagos State indigene at Lagos State University (LASU) pays significantly less than a student from Kano studying at LASU. This is a deliberate policy by state governments to subsidise education for their own citizens.
Do private universities include accommodation in their fees?
Most private universities in Nigeria make on-campus accommodation compulsory, especially in the first year. Unlike federal and state universities where hostels are optional and often in short supply, private universities typically include or bundle accommodation fees. Hostel fees at private universities range from ₦150,000 to ₦800,000 per session depending on room type (single, double or shared).
Can university fees change from year to year in Nigeria?
Yes. Nigerian university fees can and do change between sessions. Federal university fees are subject to government policy and ASUU negotiations. State university fees change with state government budgets and can increase with little notice. Private university fees increase annually in many cases — some by 10% – 30% per year. Always verify the current session fee from the official university portal or bursar's office before payment.
Are there scholarships to cover university fees in Nigeria?
Yes. Several scholarships are available to Nigerian students. The Federal Government Scholarship Board offers awards to indigent students. NNPCL/SNEPCo National University Scholarship covers tuition at federal universities. State governments offer bursaries to their indigenes. Private scholarships from organisations like Dangote Foundation, Tony Elumelu Foundation and MTN Foundation are available. Most scholarships require a minimum CGPA and are competitive. Check scholarship portals on your institution's website.
How much does polytechnic cost in Nigeria compared to university?
Polytechnics in Nigeria are generally cheaper than universities. Federal polytechnics charge ₦20,000 – ₦80,000 per session. State polytechnics charge ₦40,000 – ₦200,000. Private polytechnics charge ₦100,000 – ₦500,000. The lower fees reflect the shorter programme duration (2 years for OND, 2 years for HND) and the vocational nature of polytechnic education.
About University School Fees in Nigeria (2026)
Nigerian university education is delivered through three types of institutions — federal, state and private universities — each with a distinct fee structure. As of 2026, there are 404 NUC-accredited universities in Nigeria: 59 federal, 61 state and 138 private universities spread across all 36 states and the FCT.
Federal universities charge the lowest fees, ranging from ₦15,000 to ₦150,000 per session. This is because the Federal Government of Nigeria funds staff salaries, infrastructure and operational costs through statutory allocations. However, students still pay various non-tuition levies that can add ₦30,000 – ₦100,000 to the total cost per session.
State universities occupy the middle ground, charging ₦50,000 to ₦500,000 per session. Their fees depend on state government policy, available funding and whether a student is an indigene of that state. Indigene students enjoy heavily subsidised rates. Non-indigene students often pay at least twice the indigene rate.
Private universities are the most expensive, with fees ranging from ₦300,000 for more affordable institutions to over ₦5,000,000 per session for premium institutions like American University of Nigeria. Private universities are entirely self-funded and must cover all operational costs through student fees, endowments and grants. Many offer scholarships and bursaries to partially offset costs for high-achieving students.
Beyond tuition, all Nigerian university students pay accommodation, food, departmental, faculty, library, sports, student union and medical fees. Total annual expenditure at a federal university can range from ₦300,000 to ₦700,000 when all living costs are included. At a private university, total annual costs can reach ₦3,000,000 – ₦8,000,000.
