In this article, my work is to give a complete list of private universities in Nigeria, and I will do just that. But my concentration will be on the complete list of private universities in Nigeria as released by the Nigerian Union of Universities NUC recently with their Vice Chancellors, and possibly with their individual university’s website, should anybody want to know more about these schools. Below are the updates:
Are you a student or a parent searching for universities with low tuition fees? If yes, consider federal or state universities. If you have the money, then go to a private school. In this article, you will see the names of state universities in Nigeria and their establishment dates.
What is a Private University?
Private Universities are established by individuals, NGOs, or corporate organizations both to meet various educational needs and for profit. In Nigeria, there are Private Universities of Medicine, Private Universities of Technology, Private Universities of Agriculture, and Private Universities of Education.
Many private Universities have substantial income from tuition and fees, donations (such as from alumni or philanthropists), and revenue from royalties.
Like the Federal and State universities, All the Private Universities in Nigeria are regulated by the National Universities Commission (NUC). The NUC oversees everything related to course accreditation and general regulations. The NUC ensures uniformity in standards among the universities in Nigeria and sets the admissions capacity of every university in Nigeria.
Advantages of Private Universities
Private universities in Nigeria are the most expensive. They are characterized by higher tuition fees and high levels of expenses. One advantage is the ease of getting admission. If you have the money, simply apply for admission to any of the private school and offer your course of choice and your chances of getting admitted is high.
