Nigerian Law School Increases Tuition Fee To N476,000 Amid Economic Hardship

The Nigerian Law School has increased its tuition fee to N476,000 for students admitted for the 2023/2024 session, representing nearly a 200% hike.

This was disclosed in a circular signed by the Law School’s Director-General, Isa Chiroma, and obtained on Thursday. The astronomical increment comes amid economic hardship following the removal of fuel subsidies by President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

The new fee represents a significant jump from around N296,000 previously paid by Law School students. The hike has sparked outrage given the tough economic realities facing millions of Nigerians.
