List of All NUC Approved State Universities in Nigeria

The variety of choices available to students pursuing a bachelor’s degree program can be intimidating. New federal universities, private universities, dynamic private academic institutions, and large state universities in Nigeria are also possibilities.

Although it is important to learn about each type of university, it will help you pick which school is ideal for you in the end.

State universities are often larger and more varied than private ones. This means one will have greater chances to locate a support network of individuals who share his/her interests and are connected to people with diverse backgrounds and perspectives.

Without further ado, below is the complete and updated list of NUC Approved State Universities in Nigeria with their respective official websites.
