The purpose of the listed school fees above for the University of Benin is to assist you with budgeting.
We have noticed a lot of students who face unplanned financial challenges while in school. The majority of them even had to drop out of school because of financial problems.
Planning Your UNIBEN Payment Around the June Deadline
New students pay a total of N73,400 for science programmes and N69,900 for non-science programmes, while returning students pay N45,400 and N41,400 respectively, excluding tuition, which is billed separately by faculty.
Spreading these charges out before the June 2026 deadline, rather than waiting until the last week, reduces the risk of bank delays or portal errors locking you out of registration.
