UNINIGER School Fees 2026/2027
University on the Niger, Umunya has published its school fee schedule for the 2026/2027 academic session, giving prospective and returning students an overview of the expected costs for different programmes. The fee structure covers courses offered across several academic areas, including Science and Computing, Arts, Management and Social Sciences, Medicine and Dentistry, Allied Health Sciences, Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Law.
As a student, the amount you will be required to pay depends on your chosen programme and your year of study. The university has different tuition rates for its various programmes, while acceptance fees are also charged separately according to the programme category. Students who intend to live on campus should also plan for hostel accommodation, which costs N200,000 for the academic session.
The university has also provided a flexible payment arrangement for students who may prefer to spread their payments throughout the session. Rather than paying the entire school fee at once, eligible students can make payment in four instalments. Prospective students are advised to review the applicable fee for their specific programme and year of study before completing their admission and payment arrangements.
