If you are planning to study at Aliko Dangote University of Science and Technology, one of the most important things to understand is the school fees structure for the 2025/2026 academic session.

As you keep reading, you will find the latest information about ADUSTECH school fees, payment procedures, important notices, and other related charges students should know before the resumption date.

ADUSTECH Tuition Fees for 2025/2026 Session

ADUSTECH fees are structured based on your state of origin. Kano State indigenes attract a government subsidy, resulting in substantially lower costs compared to students from other states.

Student Category

Tuition Fee (Per Session)

Kano State Indigene

N47,000

Non Indigene (Other States)

N115,000

Note: The indigenous fee of N47,000 represents the student's share after the Kano State government covers 50% of the total tuition cost. Non indigenes are not entitled to this subsidy and are required to pay the full non resident rate.

These figures cover tuition for the entire academic session (two semesters). They do not include acceptance fees, hostel fees, or other administrative charges, which are billed separately.

ADUSTECH School Fees by Faculty

While the indigene and non indigene distinction remains the primary variable in the ADUSTECH fee structure, departmental and faculty level differences also exist due to the varying resource demands of different programmes.

Science, engineering, and technology based faculties typically attract slightly higher charges due to laboratory and equipment usage fees.
