Hello everyone, hope you're doing well.

I’m exploring options for doing my MBA and want to know which private university in Nigeria offers the most affordable program.

I’ve been checking names like Oduduwa, Paul, Caritas, Al-Hikmah, and Crawford… their undergraduate tuition fees seem low (around ₦100k–₦300k). But I’m not sure about MBA costs.

So:

1. Which private university has the cheapest MBA?


2. What’s the current tuition fee?


3. Any payment options like instalments?



Would really appreciate feedback from anyone with insider info or experience!

There are so many including private and public universities for MBA programs in Nigeria

You can't learn to build a business from a university. Business school is a scam. Even if it's Harvard. You learn how to build a business through trial, error and talking to other people in the field and learning from their success and failures.

You can also learn from other people's mistakes, that is taught in business schools.

MBA as the name implies is mainly for business administration. Just a little part is entrepreneurship and startup. Administration could be supervising, better accounting process, Human Resources etc

please, go to any National Open University of Nigeria study centre near you and enroll for the MBA, you wont regret it and the total fee is less than 150k i.e the tuition, courses and examination registration
the application fee is between 7,500 to 8,000

Try NOUN it is fully online and if you can not come in for your physical examinations, you can request for virtual exam

Nobody goes there to learn anything. People go there to network and increase their chances of getting bigger jobs. Some of the world's richest people meet and network at Harvard MBA programs.

Also, there are jobs you can never get unless you have an MBA or MSc. For instance, country directors (CDs) of all these NGOs in Nigeria paying their CDs in USD. Suffer no dey tire you? 😀😀😀

OP go look for enough money so that you go to Lagos Business School o..

Alhikma is good but expensive. I base in ilorin and the school is very good.

Try MIVA OPEN UNIVERSITY. The fees are affordable and installamental plans available.
