What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0001992) β€” you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 110 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 4.1β˜… β€” read the full text below before deciding.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Nigeria yourself before paying anything.
  • Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
  • A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics β€” slow down and verify independently.
  • Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.

πŸ’¬ Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

Newlife Peter

Although I have not been there before but one thing I have heard people say is that, when you get to the first sign post of the university, don't stop there because the main gate is about forty minutes further away the entrance to the school. Many fresh students have had to stop and trek for a longer time as a result of this.

Micheal Olusegun

Actually, it is a good place, but the roads are bad, right from Okada town into the school. It does not befittings such calibre of institution. something should be done at it to protrate good /reputations of the school.

Olusegun O

Terrible! I wonder how that place can be called a school or used as NYSC orientation camp. Expect to be in a jam packed hall for sleeping with at least 120 in a room, no toilet (pit latrine) and an open bathroom stall.
