Speedway Polytechnic School Fees 2026/2027 | The Complete Fee Schedule

Speedway Polytechnic School Fees 2026/2027: Are you planning to resume at “Speedway Poly”? Located in the strategic axis of Saabo, Ojodu Berger, on the border between Lagos and Ogun State, Speedway Polytechnic is a private institution that offers a unique advantage: Location. For students who live in Lagos (Ikeja, Berger, Ogba) but want to study in a polytechnic without travelling far into Ogun State or dealing with the crowds at Yabatech, Speedway Polytechnic is a very popular “Plan B.” However, because it is a private institution, the fee structure is different from that of government schools. Also, Speedway Polytechnic operates very traditionally—you won’t find their fees plastered all over the internet like some other schools.

This guide details the projected school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session, the reality of studying at Ojodu Berger, and the correct mode of payment.

• Projected Amount: ₦15,000 – ₦25,000.

• Status: Strictly Non-Refundable.

• Deadline: Usually 2 weeks after the admission offer.

• Warning: If you do not pay this fee within the stipulated time, the management may revoke your slot.

3. Accommodation (The “Berger” Reality)

Speedway Polytechnic is located at Saabo, Ojodu Berger. This is a densely populated urban area, not a quiet student village.

  • Most students rent apartments in the surrounding streets of Saabo, Omole Phase 2 (Extension), or Yakoyo.

    • Self-Contained: ₦300,000 – ₦500,000 per year.
