Abraham Adesanya Polytechnic School Fees 2026/2027 | The Complete Fee Schedule

Abraham Adesanya Polytechnic School Fees 2026/2027: Are you planning to resume at the “Home of Technology”—Abraham Adesanya Polytechnic (AAPOLY)? Located in Ijebu-Igbo, Ogun State, AAPOLY is a popular choice for students seeking affordable, state-owned technical education in the South-West. One of the biggest advantages of AAPOLY is its relative affordability compared to other state polytechnics. However, fees can be confusing because they are often split into various components like acceptance fees, tuition, and ancillary charges. This guide details the projected school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session, breaking down the costs for ND and HND students, freshers versus returning students, and the “hidden” charges you must budget for.

Estimated Abraham Adesanya Polytechnic School Fees for 2026/2027 Session

1. The “First Hurdle”: Acceptance Fee (Freshers Only)

Before you pay your school fees, you must secure your admission. Once your name appears on the AAPOLY admission list, you are required to pay an Acceptance Fee. This is the most critical payment because if you miss the deadline, you lose the admission.

• ND Full-Time: ₦25,000.

• HND Full-Time: ₦30,000.

• ND Part-Time: ₦30,000.

• HND Part-Time: ₦35,000.

• Deadline: Usually 2–3 weeks after admission notification.

2. Tuition Fees Breakdown (2026/2027 )

AAPOLY fees are generally segmented by your level (ND vs HND) and sometimes by your state of origin (Ogun State indigenes often enjoy a subsidized rate).

National Diploma (ND) Fees

• ND 1 (Freshers):

  • Projected Range: ₦55,000 – ₦70,000.

  • Note: This fee often includes registration charges that are one-off for new students.

• ND 2 (Returning Students):

  • Projected Range: ₦45,000 – ₦55,000.

Higher National Diploma (HND) Fees

HND students generally pay slightly higher fees due to advanced practical requirements.

  • Projected Range: ₦65,000 – ₦80,000.

• HND 2 (Returning Students):

  • Projected Range: ₦55,000 – ₦65,000.

Part-Time Tuition

If you are in the Part-Time programme, be aware that your fees are often higher than Full-Time students because the programme is self-funded.

• Projected Part-Time Fees: ₦80,000 – ₦100,000 per session.

3. The “Hidden” Charges (Budget for These)

The figure on your school fee receipt is not the only money you will spend. To settle down fully in Ijebu-Igbo, you must budget for these ancillary costs:

Fee Type	Estimated Amount	Purpose
Departmental Dues	₦3,000 – ₦5,000	Paid to your department (e.g., Mass Comm, SLT).

4. How to Pay Safely (The Portal Guide)

AAPOLY has migrated to a robust online portal system (often referred to as the V4 portal). Do not pay cash to anyone.

Step-by-Step Procedure:

1. Visit the Portal: Go to v4.aapoly.edu.ng.

2. Login:

   • Freshers: Use your Application ID or Email.

   • Returning Students: Use your Matric Number.

3. Generate Invoice: Navigate to “Payments” or “School Fees” and generate an invoice.

4. Pay: You can pay online using your ATM card (MasterCard/Visa) or take the invoice to a bank branch to pay via Remita/Interswitch.

5. Verify: After payment, your portal should automatically update. Print your Course Registration Form immediately as proof.

5. Accommodation (Hostel vs. Off-Campus)

AAPOLY does not have sufficient hostel capacity for all students, so most live off-campus in Ijebu-Igbo.

• Off-Campus (Ijebu-Igbo Town):

  • Single Room: ₦50,000 – ₦80,000 per year.

  • Self-Con (Apartment): ₦120,000 – ₦180,000 per year.

  • Tip: Popular areas include Station, Oke-Agbo, and Atikori. Living closer to the school gate (Atikori) is slightly more expensive, but saves you transport fare

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Can I pay my school fees in installments? Yes, AAPOLY typically allows a 60/40 installment plan. You pay 60% of the tuition in the First Semester to register, and the remaining 40% in the Second Semester. Note that Acceptance Fees must be paid in full.

2. Is the Acceptance Fee part of the School Fees? No. The Acceptance Fee is a separate, one-time payment to indicate you have accepted the admission offer. It is not deducted from your tuition.

3. What happens if I pay late? Late payment usually attracts a penalty fee (often ₦5,000). Furthermore, without payment, you cannot print your Exam Pass, meaning you will be barred from writing semester examinations.
