The Imo State University (IMSU), Owerri, has released its official school fees structure for the 2025/2026 academic session. Understanding the breakdown of fees is crucial for both indigenous and non-indigenous students to ensure timely payments and avoid penalties. Compliance with the school’s payment regulations is mandatory to participate in semester examinations.
IMSU School Fees for Indigenes (2025/2026)
For indigenes of Imo State, the tuition fee for the 2025/2026 session is:
| Fee Description | Amount (₦) |
|---|---|
| Tuition Fee | 29,500 |
| Ancillary Fee | 19,500 |
Note: Indigenes pay half of the non-indigenous tuition fees but must also pay the ancillary fee of ₦19,500. Failure to pay this fee will prevent students from sitting for semester examinations.
IMSU School Fees for Non-Indigenes (2025/2026)
Non-indigenous students pay fees based on their faculty. The breakdown is as follows:
