Before going into AFUED’s exact charges, it helps to compare how federal universities structure their fees. The ATBU school fees guide gives a useful reference point for another federal university fee breakdown.
Because AFUED is education-focused, the amount students pay depends mainly on whether they are in regular degree, NCE, part-time, arts, education, science, vocational or technical programmes.
The figures below are best used as a planning guide before registration. Your actual amount should still be confirmed from the student portal, especially if you are newly admitted or switching programme category.
If you are also checking private university options before making a final budget, the Coal City University school fees breakdown gives a helpful private-university comparison.
AFUED school fees are often mixed up online because Adeyemi Federal University of Education, Ondo was formerly Adeyemi College of Education, Ondo (ACEONDO). Some old posts quote NCE-style fees as if they apply to all degree students, while newer degree fee breakdowns show higher totals for fresh and returning degree students.
This guide explains the current AFUED school fees for the 2026/2027 academic session using the latest available 2025/2026 fee updates. The final amount for any student is the invoice generated on the AFUED portal, so always confirm from the portal before paying.
How Much Is AFUED School Fees?
For regular undergraduate degree students, AFUED freshers pay about N147,400 to N154,400, depending on course category. Returning degree students pay about N79,800 to N84,800. Science, Vocational and Technical Education students usually pay more because of laboratory and practical-related charges.
Some recent admission directories estimate fresh degree fees at about N187,400 to N202,400, possibly after adding extra admission-related charges. Because of this difference, new students should not pay based on blog figures alone. Use the AFUED portal invoice as the final amount.
