Truth is bitter and the truth about the saying ‘if education is expensive, try ignorance’ is not an exception. Hence, nobody wants to remain uneducated as most opportunities, in this age, are tied to education. Yet, not everyone who gains admission into a university can afford to keep up with the demanding tuition. However, in Nigeria, there are still cheap universities anyone could afford.
Public universities – especially that of the Federal government – are known to be cheaper than all others (State government-owned and privately-owned universities). However, as not everyone can cope in the over-populated environment of these government schools, we bring you a list of both cheapest public and private universities in Nigeria.
Below is the list of the arguably cheapest private universities in Nigeria that are fully approved by Nigerian Universities Commision (NUC). *Note that not all cheap private universities are approved.
