The Federal Government has increased the school fees for new students entering Federal Government Colleges, also known as Federal Unity Colleges, to N100,000 through the Federal Ministry of Education.
This was stated in a directive issued by the Federal Ministry of Education’s Office of the Director of Senior Secondary Education, reference number ADF/120/DSSE/I, dated May 25, 2023, and sent to all Principals of Federal Unity Colleges.
According to the circular titled “Approved fees/ charges for Federal Unity Colleges (1st Term) for new students” signed by the Director of Senior Secondary Education, Hajia Binta Abdulkadir, new students are to pay N100,000 instead of the previous N45,000 being paid.
“The latest fees/charge increment will affect virtually all aspects and activities of the school, including tuition and boarding fees, uniform, text books, deposit, exercise books, prospectus, caution fee, ID card, stationery, clubs and societies, sports, extra lesson, insurance, et al.
“Please be informed that the ministry has approved only the under-listed fees and charges for all Unity Colleges,” the memo read.
