PLASU Important Notice on Tuition Fee Increasement 2025/2026

The management of Plateau State University (PLASU), Bokkos, has clarified that there has been no increase in tuition fees for the 2025/2026 academic session. This statement comes in response to recent social media posts suggesting a fee hike.

According to an internal memorandum signed by the Registrar, Yakubu F. Ayuba, and sent to all students, the university confirmed that tuition fees for both new and returning students have stayed the same since 2022. Despite rising costs and inflation, PLASU has maintained its fee structure to ease the financial pressure on students.

The memo further explained that the confusion may have been caused by the introduction of a new ₦5,000 ICT charge, which is entirely separate from tuition fees. This charge was approved by the University’s Governing Council to support ICT services and provide free internet access across campus.

It also restated that the ₦10,000 Bench Fee, introduced in 2021 to replace irregular departmental levies, remains unchanged. Initially meant for final-year students, the fee now applies to students in 22 departments whose programmes involve outdoor learning activities such as fieldwork, excursions, and productions.

The university encouraged students to make use of the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) made available by the Federal Government. This initiative aims to reduce financial challenges connected with tuition and related payments.

Apply Now: NELFUND Student Loan 2024/2025 Still Ongoing

The Nigerian Education Loan Fund has reopened its student verification portal for a short time. This final window runs for 48 hours. It helps schools that have not finished verifying their students for the 2024/2025 cycle. The step is key for anyone who wants a NELFUND Student Loan.

Key dates and times

Start: 12:00 a.m., Sunday, 12 October 2025
End: 12:00 a.m., Tuesday, 14 October 2025

Who needs to act

Tertiary institutions that have not completed the student checks must do so now. This helps their students be seen as eligible in the current loan cycle. If a school does not finish on time, it will not take part in this cycle. That would hurt its students who wish to apply.

What this window covers

This short window is only for student verification by schools. It makes sure each eligible student is captured in the portal. It supports the ongoing 2024/2025 loan process.

Help with NELFUND Student Loan steps

Students should ask their school if their details have been sent in. They can also follow updates on the official channels. The list of schools that do not comply will be shared with this notice, for clarity.

How to get updates and support

For questions, write to info@nelf.gov.ng.
