This is the full list of 197 NUC approved Universities in Nigeria as of September 2021. The existence and operation of every university are based on the approval and license of the National Universities Commission (NUC).
We currently have 45 Federal Universities, 53 State Universities, and 99 private universities in Nigeria as approved by the NUC.
Recall that the NUC is the federal agency tasked by the Nigerian Federal Government with the regulation of university education in Nigeria. It also acts as a catalyst for positive change and innovation for the delivery of quality university education in Nigeria.
The NUC has always warned the general public from time to time to first verify if a university is approved before patronizing them.
Some of our friends and loved ones have fallen prey to some elements parading themselves as approved universities, only for people to later find out that they are not approved by the NUC.
That is why The Abusites has compiled and is presenting you the full list of all approved Universities in Nigeria. As shown here, the list below includes the names of the universities and their locations, their Vice Chancellors, their websites, and the years of establishment as approved by the NUC.
The list has also been categorized in terms of Federal Universities, State Universities, and Private Universities to ease identification.
