Many of you have waited for this post. You’ve browsed, called and did everything to get this information. It’s finally here and you’d do well to read through it very carefully.
Activities surrounding the forthcoming academic session in UNN have been very unique in their unpredictability. A lot of directives and counter directives from the school authorities. A lot of newly admitted students and hopefuls have made a couple of mistakes and even lost some money as a result of this. The issues started with the redesign of the school’s website and restructuring of the registration portal which many stakeholders complained bitterly about saying the timing was wrong. This was shortly followed by a directive by the newly instituted Buhari-led administration that every Federal Government Ministry, Department or Agency should start using the Treasury Single Account (TSA) for all government revenues, incomes and other receipts in order to promote transparency and facilitate compliance with sections 80 and 162 of the 1999 constitution. This, as we all saw, affected the already planned payment procedures and disrupted the school’s original schedules. Dates were shifted and shifted again to accommodate and cushion the effects.
Then the time for WAUGA Games came and UNN happens to be the host for 2015. The games started on Thursday, 15th October, 2015 and is expected to end on the 25th of October. Partly because of this, everything about supplementary list, payment of acceptance fee and other such activities were piped down though they are still being worked on.
Some of these have been the issues since the primary admission list was released. But maybe I should also remind you that the major issues are not peculiar to UNN. UNIZIK, for example, has had to amend her Academic Calendar for the 2015/2016 session – now with new resumption dates for both old and new students. The same is very likely to be the case in UNN. 29th of October has been widely circulated as the UNN resumption date for 2015/2016 academic session and many are planning towards traveling to UNN or UNEC on that date. Yes, planning is good but you are advised not to do anything by way of traveling until the school makes an official statement on resumption/calendar for the session. So just stick around this website to get updates about any new developments as they come up.
Let me also remind you that one or two faculties in University of Nigeria run calendars that are slightly different from others. Such faculties are Law and Veterinary Medicine (and I think Pharmacy also). Don’t get confused if you hear that they are starting soon or that they have started or writing exams while others are not.
You are, therefore, advised to keep getting your documents for clearance ready and handy while you wait till all these issues with payment in Federal Government agencies are resolved. If you need to look again at the list of documents required for clearance of newly admitted students, click this link =>>Documents Required for Clearance of Newly Admitted Students (fully listed and explained). Keep planning and budgeting. That’s the much you can do now and remember not to go around asking when this or that will happen. If you understand all that has been going on, you’d know it’s a wrong question to ask.
Ok. I just said keep planning and budgeting and many who’d want to do so don’t even have the slightest idea of what the school fees schedule would be like. Some of them have commented several questions on this website about the UNN consolidated school fees for the 2015/2016 academic session. Sadly, that information has not been released by the school. But you can find below, the consolidated school fees schedule for the last session. Only the First year fees are given because students of other years already know what they paid. You can take your time to view them below.
1. PHYSICAL SCIENCES, First year = N58,950
2. SOCIAL SCIENCES, First year = N57,950
3. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES, First year = N60,450
4. AGRICULTURE, First year= N57,950
5. EDUCATION, First year= N57,950
6. ARTS, First year= N58,950
7. BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES, First year= N58,950
8. VETERINARY MEDICINE, First year= N64,450
9.MEDICAL SCIENCES, First year= N64,450
10. DENTISTRY, First year= N64,450
11. HEALTH SCIENCES AND TECH, First year= N64,450

For those interested in getting the school-provided hostel accommodation, note that female hostels went for N11,500 while males got theirs at N9,000. You can plan and budget with the figures above bearing in mind that there would likely be some adjustments in the new session. Finally, as you plan, remember to factor in the money for the acquisition of your laptop. You can click the link =>>THE EM-POWER SCHEME (COMPULSORY LAPTOP ACQUISITION) FOR UNN ‘NEW’ STUDENTS to read about it. Direct Entry (D.E) candidates should note that there is very likely not to be any oral interviews for them this year. If you did very well in the CBT screening examination, expect your name in the forthcoming first supplementary list.
