The Bursary Office of Yobe State University (YSU), Damaturu, has officially released the registration fee structure for the 2025/2026 academic session. Understanding your financial obligations early is crucial for a smooth and stress-free registration experience.

The actual fees payable may vary depending on your state of origin (Indigene or Non-Indigene), your level of study, and your programme of study (for example, Science, Arts, or Medicine).

How to Check Your Specific Fees

Because fees differ across faculties and programmes, YSU has made several channels available for students to access detailed information:

• Faculty Offices: Visit your respective faculty for a printed copy of the detailed fee schedule.
  
• Departmental Notice Boards: Departments post specific fees for students within their programmes.
  
• Student Portal: Do Log in to the YSU Student Portal. Once you start the registration process, the system generates your personalized invoice automatically.

What the Registration Fee Covers

Though the exact amount varies, your registration fee generally includes the following components:

• Tuition Fees: Core instruction and academic services.
  
• Library & Laboratory Fees: Free Access to research resources and practical laboratory sessions.
  
• Examination Fees: Administration of semester examinations.
  
• Student Handbook & ID Card: Essential for campus identification.
  
• Sports & ICT Levies: Maintenance of digital platforms and athletic facilities.
  
• Health Services/TISHIP: Mandatory student health insurance.

Payment Guidelines

To ensure your payment is successfully recorded and your registration confirmed, follow these guidelines:

1. Use Official Channels Only: Generate your Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR) or invoice exclusively through the university portal. Avoid paying into private accounts.
   
2. Bank Payments: If paying via a commercial bank, retain your stamped teller and e-receipt as proof of payment.
   
3. Adhere to Deadlines: Make your payment early to avoid late registration penalties.
   
4. Keep Records: Maintain both digital and physical copies of all payment receipts until graduation for verification and clearance purposes.
