- The management of the tertiary institution announced over 500% increment in their tuition fee
- Alagba highlighted the mandatory charges for one academic session/year, for new undergraduate students
The University of Lagos’ administration has announced an increase in the institution’s undergraduate students’ tuition fees.
The management acknowledged that the fee increase was now necessary in light of the country’s current economic situation and its commitments to its service suppliers, staff, and students.
This was said in a statement provided to newsmen on Friday night by the institution’s public relations officer, Alagba Ibraheem.
The statement titled, “Adjusted Obligatory Fees for New and Returning Undergraduate Students” confirmed that UNILAG has deliberated with its stakeholders (students, parents/guardians, staff unions, and alumni, among others), that there will be adjustments in the tuition fees for new and returning undergraduate students.
It partly read, “The adjustment in fees which will take effect from 1st Semester, 2023/2024 Academic Session, is in view of the prevailing economic realities and the need for the University to be able to meet its obligations to its students, staff, and municipal service providers among others.
“It is also pertinent to note that the University has not increased its obligatory fees in recent years.
“Management, therefore, seeks the kind understanding and support of students and other stakeholders with the assurance of its commitment towards ensuring that students get the best learning experience.”
