Estimated Ashi Polytechnic  School Fees for 2026/2027 Session

1. Tuition Fees Breakdown (2026/2027 Projection)

Because Ashi Polytechnic is located in a semi-urban area (Anyiin), its fees are structured to be significantly more affordable than private polytechnics in cities like Abuja or Makurdi.

National Diploma (ND) Fees

• Projected Tuition: ₦80,000 – ₦110,000 per session.

• Breakdown: This fee usually covers tuition, ICT charges, and library development.

• Note: Science and Engineering courses (e.g., Computer Engineering, Electrical Electronics) are typically on the higher end of this range due to practical workshop fees.

Higher National Diploma (HND) Fees

• Projected Tuition: ₦100,000 – ₦130,000 per session.

• Why the increase? HND programs require advanced project supervision and laboratory consumables, which drives the cost slightly higher than ND.

2. Mandatory “Startup” Charges (Freshers Only)

The tuition fee covers your lectures, but it is not your total bill. As a newly admitted student, you must budget for these one-off administrative costs to secure your admission:

Fee Type	Estimated Amount	Purpose
Acceptance Fee	₦10,000 – ₦20,000	Non-refundable fee to confirm you accept the admission.
Admission Form	₦5,000 – ₦7,000	Paid online if you haven’t bought the form yet.
Medical Screening	₦5,000	Mandatory health check at the school clinic.
Matriculation Fee	₦5,000	Gown rental and ceremony expenses.
ID Card	₦2,000	Student Identity Card.
Handbook	₦2,000	Student code of conduct book.

• Total Ancillary Budget: You should keep roughly ₦30,000 aside for these “startup” costs before you even pay your main tuition.

3. Accommodation (Living in Anyiin)

One of the biggest advantages of Ashi Polytechnic is the low cost of living in Anyiin town.

• School Hostel: The polytechnic provides hostel accommodation for students who want to stay on campus.

  • Projected Fee: ₦20,000 – ₦35,000 per session.

  • Condition: Hostels are usually basic but secure.

• Off-Campus: Many students rent rooms in Anyiin town.

  • Single Room: ₦30,000 – ₦50,000 per year.

  • Self-Contained: ₦70,000 – ₦100,000 per year.

4. Payment Plans: Can I Pay in Installments?

Yes. Most private polytechnics in Benue State understand the economic reality and offer flexible payment plans.

• The Norm: You are typically allowed to pay 60% of the tuition in the First Semester (to register for courses) and the remaining 40% in the Second Semester (before exams).

• Warning: The Acceptance Fee must always be paid in full before you can be cleared to pay tuition.

5. How to Pay Safely (Avoid Scams)

Ashi Polytechnic is a private institution, which sometimes makes it a target for “admission agents” who try to collect money into personal accounts.

The Golden Rule:

• Never transfer school fees to a personal bank account (e.g., a “staff” member’s OPay, Palmpay, or personal First Bank account).

• Official Accounts: Always visit the Bursary Department on campus to get the official bank account details. The account name will typically read “Ashi Polytechnic” or “Ashi Tech Nig Ltd” (Proprietors).

• Portal: Payments are often processed via the school portal or Remita. Ensure you are on the correct URL: ashipoly.edu.ng or the affiliated ashipolytechnic.wordpress.com information page.
