Binyaminu Usman Polytechnic School Fees 2026/2027 | The Complete Fee Schedule

Binyaminu Usman Polytechnic School Fees 2026/2027: Are you planning to resume at “BUPOLY”? Located in the historic town of Hadejia, Binyaminu Usman Polytechnic is a pride of Jigawa State. It is widely recognised as one of the most specialised institutions in the North-West, particularly for students interested in Agriculture, Technology, and Management. Here is the best part: Because BUPOLY is a State institution owned by the Jigawa State Government, it is incredibly affordable. The state government heavily subsidises education, resulting in significantly lower fees compared to many other state polytechnics in Nigeria.

However, the fee structure is not “one size fits all.” It varies depending on whether you are an Indigene of Jigawa State or a Non-Indigene. This guide outlines the projected school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session, breaking down the costs for first-year students versus returning students, the hostel rates, and the correct portal to use.

Estimated Binyaminu Usman Polytechnic School Fees for 2026/2027 Session
