Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Can I pay FUOYE school fees in instalments? A: Historically, FUOYE has implemented a 60/40 instalment payment structure, where 60% of the fees are paid in the First Semester and 40% in the Second Semester. However, due to the new fee regime, it is important to confirm on your portal whether this payment option is still available for the 2026/2027 session before proceeding.

Q: Is the N100,000 Acceptance Fee part of the School Fees? A: No. The Acceptance Fee is a separate, non-refundable payment that must be made before paying your main school fees.

Q: Why are the fees so high now? A: The increase reflects a national trend where federal universities have implemented “Service Charges” to address the rising costs of utilities, laboratory supplies, and infrastructure maintenance, which the government no longer fully subsidises.
