About Eko University of Medicine and Health Sciences

Eko University of Medicine and Health Sciences (EkoUNIMED) was established in 2017 and is located in Ijanikin, Lagos State, along the Badagry Expressway. It is a private, non-sectarian, co-educational institution and the only private specialist medical university in Lagos State. EkoUNIMED is fully accredited by the National Universities Commission (NUC) and operates through two faculties — the Faculty of Clinical Sciences and the Faculty of Basic Medical Sciences.

Because EkoUNIMED is privately funded and specialist in nature, its fees are structured differently from most federal and state universities. Unlike those institutions — where fees often decrease as students progress — EkoUNIMED fees increase with level, reflecting the higher cost of clinical training in later years.

What Is Included in the EkoUNIMED School Fees?

The figures above are all-inclusive for new students. Accommodation is not charged separately — it forms part of the “Other Educational Charges & Accommodation” component confirmed in the official fee schedule. The tuition component (₦3,600,000 for 100–400 Level, ₦3,700,000 for 500 Level) covers your academic programme. The second component covers all other institutional charges including accommodation, laboratory consumables, ICT fees, medical fees, caution fees, and excursion/field trip levies for the session.

Students who come across lower figures on older third-party websites are seeing data from previous sessions and should not use those for planning.

How to Pay EkoUNIMED School Fees

Step 1: Visit the Official Portal

Go to studentportal.ekounimed.edu.ng. Bookmark this page. Do not use any other website or payment link — EkoUNIMED cautions against fraudulent payment portals.

Step 2: Log In

Use your student credentials — matric number and portal password. Newly admitted students: activate your account using your JAMB registration number as prompted on the portal.

Step 3: Navigate to Fees

On your dashboard, select Fees Payment, then choose the correct academic session. New students: your fee schedule will display the figures applicable to your level. Returning students: your personalised fee schedule is shown here.

Step 4: Generate Your Invoice

Generate your payment invoice from the portal. Screenshot or write down your invoice reference number — you will need it to complete payment and confirm receipt.

Step 5: Make Payment

Pay through the portal using a valid debit card (Visa, Mastercard, or Verve) via the online payment gateway. You can also pay via bank deposit or transfer using the account details shown on your invoice.

Step 6: Confirm Payment and Save Your Receipt

Return to the portal after payment to confirm the transaction. Print or save your receipt. You will need it for course registration and exam clearance.

⚠️ Pay the exact amount shown on your invoice. Underpayments and overpayments both cause clearance problems. For issues, contact the bursary at info@ekounimed.edu.ng or call +234 803 964 5975.

Payment Deadline: For the 2025/2026 session, the deadline was March 2026. Missing the deadline results in the inability to sit for semester examinations. Continued non-payment leads to loss of studentship for the session, and the lost session counts toward your total programme duration. The 2026/2027 deadline has not been announced — check the portal and your student email for updates.
