Federal University Lafia (FULAFIA) School Fees 2026/2027 | Full Breakdown

Federal University Lafia (FULAFIA) School Fees 2026/2027: Welcome again to the student parents’ preparations for the Federal University Lafia, FULAFIA, admission in the 2026/2027 academic session. The next important phase after checking one’s admission status is putting finances in order. This article provides an in-depth breakdown of the expected school fee schedule, acceptance fees, and other unannounced charges for both new and returning students.

Estimated FULAFIA School Fees for 2026/2027 Session

Many students often feel confused because the “School Fee” shown on the portal, which is usually around N22,500, only accounts for tuition and service charges. The total amount you need to pay is significantly higher when you include other mandatory fees.

Here’s a realistic budget to help you plan effectively:

1. New Students (Freshers – 100L & DE)

New students tend to pay the highest fees because of one-time charges such as matriculation and medical tests.

Fee Category	Estimated Cost (Science/Arts)	Estimated Cost (MBBS/Health Sci)
Base School Fees	N22,500	N22,500
Acceptance Fee	N15,000	N15,000
Matriculation Fee	N25,000	N25,000
Medical Test	N7,500	N7,500
Portal & MIS Charges	N10,000	N10,000
Faculty/Dept. Dues	~N5,000	~N75,000+ (Prof. Levy)
Total “Package”	~N85,000 – N90,000	~N150,000 – N180,000

• Note for Medical Students: Students in the College of Medicine (MBBS, Anatomy, Physiology) pay significantly higher departmental levies, which often range from N60,000 to N75,000, separate from the main school fees.

2. Returning Students (200L – 500L)

Returning students pay a reduced fee because they have already settled their entry fees.

• Estimated Total Fee: N45,000 – N60,000

• Note: Final year students should allocate an additional N10,000 to N15,000 for convocation and plagiarism verification fees.
