The management of the University of Lagos has confirmed reported increase in tuition fees of the undergraduate students of the institution.

The confirmation came through a statement the institution’s Public Relations Officer, Adejoke Alaga-Ibraheem released.

It reads in part: “The adjustment in fees which will take effect from 1st Semester, 2023/2024 Academic Session, is in view of the prevailing economic realities and the need for the University to be able to meet its obligations to its students, staff, and municipal service providers among others.

“It is also pertinent to note that the University has not increased its obligatory fees in recent years.

“Management, therefore, seeks the kind understanding and support of students and other stakeholders with the assurance of its commitment towards ensuring that students get the best learning experience.”

News earlier broke that the students’ fees had moved up from N19,000 to N190,250 for students studying medicine while for courses that require laboratory and studio, students are to pay N140,250.
