FUTES-IYIN’s freshers’ instructions require evidence of acceptance and medical payments alongside the bundle-fee process. Its ₦311,500 bundle should therefore not be described as a complete first-year budget.

EKSU’s reported range includes lower Education charges and higher professional-course charges. BOUESTI’s older official page separately lists a ₦50,000 acceptance fee .

How Much Should a New Student Budget?

Start with the fee for your exact course and admission category. Then check whether the following are included:

Acceptance and clearance.

Medical screening and health insurance.

Laboratory, professional and departmental charges.

ICT and utility charges.

Accommodation.

Add feeding, transport, books and personal equipment separately. Avoid counting an item twice if it is already included in a university’s bundle.

An instalment payment is part of the full fee—it is not a lower annual charge.
