Federal Polytechnic Ile-Oluji School Fees 2026/2027 | The Complete Fee Schedule

Federal Polytechnic Ile-Oluji School Fees 2026/2027: Are you planning to resume at the “Young Giant”? Federal Polytechnic Ile-Oluji (FEDPOLEL) is one of the fastest-growing federal polytechnics in Nigeria. Located in the serene town of Ile-Oluji, Ondo State, it has quickly become a favorite for students who want a federal institution with modern facilities and a stable academic calendar (no strikes). Because it is a Federal institution, the tuition is heavily subsidized. However, do not be misled by rumors that “Federal schools are free.” While tuition itself is free, you are required to pay for Registration, Development, and Service Charges, which make up the bulk of your school fees.

This guide details the projected school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session, breaking down the costs for ND and HND students, the critical acceptance fee, and the correct payment portal to use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Can I pay my school fees in installments? Officially, Federal Polytechnics usually require full payment to enable course registration. However, students facing difficulties are sometimes allowed to pay per semester (60% 1st Semester, 40% 2nd Semester). You must confirm if this waiver is active at the Bursary upon resumption.

2. Is the Acceptance Fee refundable? No. The Acceptance Fee is strictly non-refundable.

3. What happens if I pay into the wrong account? To avoid this, never generate an RRR from Remita.net directly. Always generate it from the school portal (app.fedpolel.edu.ng). If you generate it from the portal, the money is automatically tied to your profile.
