Depending on the department, the average student’s tuition was N64,050 for first-years, N52,050 for final years and N49,500 for returning students.On Monday, December 4, the school became a trending topic on X (formerly Twitter) due to the students’ protest.
Why we raised the tuition at UNICAL
The Nigerian university’s administration claimed that the rise was required due to the country’s current economic situation as well as the university’s reputation for high academic standards. According to reports, UNICAL is one of the first universities in Nigeria to automate the registration process for students using the college portal.
