See AFIT School Fees payment Schedule for 2025/2026

Air Force Institute of Technology Kaduna has published the 2025–2026 school fees. New and returning students should check the schedule, note the free tuition policy, and follow the payment steps through the official portal. Read further for details and guidance.

Sorting out school fees is never anyone’s favourite pastime, yet it is one of those boxes that must be ticked before classes begin. The Air Force Institute of Technology, Kaduna, has now laid out the full fee schedule for the 2025/2026 academic year. Whether you are just stepping in as a fresh student or you are coming back for another round, the numbers are clear and official.

AFIT Fee Structure Overview

AFIT runs a wide mix of programmes. These range from:

  • National Diploma (ND)
  • Pre-Higher National Diploma (Pre-HND)
  • Higher National Diploma (HND)
  • Degree courses

The school has released the approved list for each category. A detailed copy is available in the AFIT school fees schedule PDF.

Key Points on AFIT School Fees

  • Tuition is free for all programmes, which removes a huge weight from the shoulders of families.
  • Service charges such as sports, medical, and I.C.T are the same across all faculties.
  • One-time charges like acceptance fee and caution deposit apply only at entry level.
  • Hostel fees are optional, giving students room to decide.

The school encourages students to study the schedule properly and keep track of what applies to them. Missing a line can cause delays later, and nobody wants that on registration day.

Payment Process and Portal Access

Payments are only allowed through the official AFIT student portal. The system runs on a Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR) code, generated inside the portal before payment. Students are reminded to pay on time, as late payments may attract penalties or block access to course registration.

Steps for Returning Students

  1. Log in with your JAMB Registration Number as username. Use a default password made up of your level and “2025”. For example, 300 level students will use 3002025.
  2. Change your password and update your email address to proceed. Once done, you land on your dashboard.
  3. Select “Proceed to Pay 2025/2026 Fees” and follow the steps.
  4. After paying, click on Print Receipt to generate and keep your receipt.

These steps are meant for returning students only. Fresh students should follow the guidelines shared during admission clearance.

AFIT Pre-HND, HND & Direct Entry Screening 2025/2026

Air Force Institute of Technology has fixed dates for Pre-HND, HND and Direct Entry screening for 2025–2026. Candidates must attend on 18–19 September at Mosugu Hall, AFIT. Bring original documents or risk disqualification.

The Air Force Institute of Technology, Kaduna, has made it official. The screening schedule for those who applied for Pre-HND, HND, and 200 Level Direct Entry programmes is out. For many, this is the last lap before admission is sealed. Miss it, and the chance is gone for the year.

AFIT Screening Schedule

The screening exercise is not stretched out, it is two days only. Candidates should mark their calendars and prepare.

  • Dates: 18 and 19 September 2025
  • Venue: Mosugu Hall, AFIT Kaduna
  • Time: 9 am and 2 pm daily

The school expects punctuality. Arriving late can throw you off, so better to plan ahead. Kaduna traffic, or even a sudden downpour, can slow things down, so leave early.

What to Bring for the AFIT Screening

Applicants are asked to come along with the following:

  • Original copies of all academic credentials
  • Supporting documents for their admission application

These are not optional. Missing papers could mean wasted effort, and there is no second chance.

Why Attendance Matters

Skipping the screening dates means automatic disqualification. No appeals, no rescheduling. The process is set up to be firm and fair. AFIT has reminded candidates that showing up, with documents in hand, is the only way forward.

AFIT 1st Batch Merit Admission List 2025/2026 is Out

The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) Kaduna has released its 2025/2026 admission list. Candidates can now check their status on the JAMB CAPS portal and follow the given steps to accept or reject the offer. Applicants are encouraged to keep checking as updates may come at any time.

The wait is over. After weeks of nail-biting and constant refreshing of pages, the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), Kaduna, has finally announced the release of its provisional admission list for the 2025/2026 session. For many hopefuls, this is the big news they’ve been itching to hear.

How to Check the AFIT Admission List

At this stage, admission status is only available on the JAMB CAPS portal. Candidates will need to log in to confirm whether their names made the cut.

Here is a quick run-down:

  • Visit the JAMB E-Facility portal.
  • Enter your JAMB username and password to log in.
  • Scroll to the Check Admission Status option.
  • Select Access my CAPS.
  • Click on Admission Status to see your result.

For those offered a slot, the next step is to accept or reject the offer by sending ACCEPT or REJECT to 55019 or 66019 using the phone number linked to your JAMB profile.

What to Do Next

  • Once you accept your admission, you should print your JAMB admission letter.
  • If your status reads “Admission Still in Progress” or “Not Admitted”, don’t panic, the system updates regularly.
  • Patience is key, so keep checking.

A Note for Mobile Phone Users

Here is a small hiccup. Many candidates who log in with their phones might only see a welcome page, no admission status option in sight. The fix? Switch your browser to desktop mode. If you are using Chrome, just tap on the options menu and select Request Desktop Site. That should display the full page.
