Osun State Poly Iree School Fees 2026/2027 | The Complete Fee Schedule

Osun State Poly Iree School Fees 2026/2027: Are you planning to resume at “Iree Poly”? Located in the town of Iree in Boripe Local Government Area, Osun State Polytechnic is a heavyweight in the Nigerian polytechnic sector. It is one of the most populous and vibrant campuses in the South-West, known for its strong Daily Part-Time (DPT) program and its recent affiliation with the University of Ilorin for degree courses. However, if you are looking for the “old cheap fees” of ₦40,000, you need to update your budget. In recent sessions, OSPOLY (like other Osun state-owned schools) implemented a significant fee adjustment. The good news? They also introduced a very flexible installment payment plan to make it manageable.

This guide details the projected school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session, breaking down the costs for Regular and DPT students, the “Installment” structure, and the correct portal to use.

Estimated Osun State Poly Iree School Fees for 2026/2027 Session

1. Acceptance Fee (Freshers Only)

Before you pay your main tuition, you must validate your admission. Whether you are admitted via JAMB (Regular) or the DPT portal, you must pay a non-refundable Acceptance Fee.

• Projected Amount: ₦30,000 – ₦40,000.

• Status: Strictly Non-Refundable.

• Deadline: Usually 2 weeks after the admission list is released.

• Warning: If you do not pay this fee within the stipulated time, the portal often automatically revokes your admission. This fee is separate from your school fees.

2. Tuition & Registration Fees Breakdown (2026/2027 Projection)

OSPOLY fees are segmented by Program Type (Regular vs. DPT) and Faculty (Science vs. Management).

A. Full-Time Regular (ND & HND)

These are students admitted through JAMB.

• Faculty of Science / Engineering / Technology:

  • Projected Total: ₦145,000 – ₦155,000 per session.

  • Departments: Computer Science, SLT, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, etc.

  • Projected Total: ₦140,000 – ₦150,000 per session.

  • Departments: Accountancy, Mass Communication, Business Admin.

B. Daily Part-Time (DPT) Fees

The DPT program is the “engine room” of Iree. It runs daily like a regular program but is administered independently.

• Projected Total: ₦150,000 – ₦165,000 per session.

• Note: DPT fees are traditionally slightly higher than Regular fees because the program is self-sustaining.

C. The “Installment” Lifeline

The total figures above look scary, right? Don’t panic. OSPOLY allows you to split the payment.

• First Installment (1st Semester): You pay approximately 50–60% (e.g., ~₦78,000 – ₦85,000) to register and attend lectures.

• Second Installment (2nd Semester): You pay the remaining balance before the second-semester exams.

• Advice: Ensure you select “Part Payment” on the portal if you don’t have the full bulk sum.

3. The “Hidden” Charges Breakdown

What exactly are you paying for? Based on recent payment receipts, your “School Fee” is actually a bundle of many smaller charges. Understanding this helps you know you aren’t being scammed.

4. Accommodation (Iree Living)

OSPOLY does not have a large on-campus hostel system. 95% of students live Off-Campus in Iree town.

• Popular Student Areas:

  • Laniu: Very close to the school gate. Lively but can be noisy.

  • Poly Junction / Ikirun Road: Accessible and full of student businesses.

  • Ada Road: Slightly quieter, good for reading.
