Federal Polytechnic Mubi School Fees 2026/2027 | The Complete Fee Schedule

Federal Polytechnic Mubi School Fees 2026/2027: Are you planning to resume at Federal Polytechnic Mubi? Located in the commercial border town of Mubi, Adamawa State, this institution is one of the “Old Generation” federal polytechnics in Nigeria (established in 1979). Because of its long history and Federal status, FPM is known for being extremely affordable. In fact, for many years, it was one of the cheapest polytechnics in the North-East. However, “cheap” does not mean free. While the government subsidizes tuition, you must pay for Registration, ICT, and Municipal Services.

This guide details the projected school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session, breaking down the costs for Mubi Campus (Main) vs. Yola Campus (Consultancy), and the correct way to handle your payments.
