It is a well-known fact that the University of Abuja is among the top ten universities in Nigeria. The University was established in 1992 and currently runs three programs and they include the normal degree, diploma program and also postgraduate programs. Interestingly, UNIABUJA is equipped with two campuses and they are:
- Gwagwalada mini-campus and
- The main campus situated at Abuja-Abuja road.
It is advised that before anyone chooses a University as their institution of choice when registering for JAMB, they should be well informed in regards to the school fee, acceptance fee and hostel fees. These are all very important because it would help your parents or sponsors prepare for paying the fees and they won’t be caught unawares. The best thing is to let them know how much they’ll be paying or at least an estimate.
