Planning to study at Tai Solarin University of Education or helping a ward prepare for admission? One of the first and most important steps is understanding the school fees structure.
The TASUED school fees for the 2025/2026 academic session have been officially released by the university management, covering tuition, acceptance fees, and a range of other charges that every student must settle before registration.
Here we have broken down all the fees in detail, explained how to make payments correctly, and answered the most common questions students and parents ask each year.
Overview of TASUED School Fees 2025/2026
The TASUED school fees for the 2025/2026 academic session range from N148,500 to N190,000 for undergraduate students, depending on whether the student is freshly admitted or returning and on the specific programme of study.
These figures cover tuition, registration, examination, ICT levies, library charges, and other administrative fees. They do not include accommodation, acceptance fees, or certain departmental charges, which are billed separately.
It is important to note that fees at TASUED are uniform for both indigenes and non indigenes of Ogun State. All students, regardless of state of origin, pay the same published amounts.
TASUED School Fees for Fresh Students 2025/2026
Newly admitted students, whether through UTME (100 Level) or Direct Entry (200 Level), are required to pay a higher fee schedule than returning students. The table below outlines the school fees applicable to fresh students for the 2025/2026 session.
Programme Category | School Fees (Per Session) |
|---|---|
Education Programmes (e.g., Adult Education, Social Studies, Educational Management) | N170,500 |
Pure Science / Social Science Programmes (e.g., Computer Science, Political Science, Biochemistry) | N180,500 |
These fees are payable in full before a fresh student can complete registration, receive a matriculation number, or begin attending lectures.
TASUED School Fees for Returning Students 2025/2026
Returning students (200 Level and above) are generally charged slightly lower fees than new students. The table below gives a clear breakdown.
Programme Category | School Fees (Per Session) |
|---|---|
Education Programmes | N148,500 |
Pure Science / Social Science Programmes | N158,500 |
Returning students may be permitted to pay their fees in two instalments: approximately 60 per cent in the first semester and the remaining 40 per cent in the second semester.
However, this arrangement is subject to the university's policy for the specific session, so students should confirm the payment plan on the official portal before assuming it applies.
TASUED Acceptance Fee 2025/2026
The acceptance fee is a mandatory, one time, non refundable payment that must be made by every newly admitted student as a formal acceptance of the offer of admission.
For the 2025/2026 academic session, the TASUED acceptance fee is N50,000. This represents an increase from the previous amount of N40,000, following a management approved upward review.
The acceptance fee must be paid before any other fee. Failure to pay the acceptance fee within the stipulated deadline is interpreted as a rejection of the admission offer, and the slot may be offered to another candidate.
