  • Male Students: W5 Hostel
  • Female Students: W2A Hostel (entry only with a valid Allocation Slip)

Students must comply strictly with hostel regulations, present valid allocation documents, and maintain discipline and cleanliness within the hostel premises.

EducationNGR also learnt that UNIUYO’s management is taking proactive steps to ensure the smooth reopening of hostels, prioritizing student welfare and readiness for the new academic session.

Each graduate is required to pay a non-refundable fee of ₦20,000 through Remita on or before 17 November 2025.
