NOUN Abolishes Application Fees in Bold Drive for Inclusive, Barrier-Free Tertiary Education The National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) has abolished application fees for all its programmes, declaring that application into the university for study is now free. The historic declaration was made by the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Uduma Oji Uduma, at the end of the university’s 127th Management Meeting held on Tuesday, November 10, 2026. Prof. Uduma said the move, reinforces NOUN’s drive for inclusiveness and its mandate of removing all barriers to gaining access to tertiary education. Under the new policy, prospective students will no longer pay application fees for Undergraduate, Postgraduate Diploma and Master’s programmes. The new policy of free admission takes immediate effect and will commence with the 2027_1 admission exercise.

Subject: Clarification on CIT108 and COS102 Course Registration In view of the ongoing misunderstanding regarding the CIT108 and COS102 courses, the department wish to clarify the following for your information and necessary guidance. COS102 is intended for Information Technology students in their second semester and is not meant for the current (old) Computer Science students. Accordingly, Computer Science students should be advised to retain their registration for CIT108 and disregard COS102 as currently displayed on their respective student portals. Please note that COS102 is a CCMAS course introduced for the new intake of Computer Science students and does not apply to the old students. Kindly ensure that this clarification is communicated to the affected students to avoid further confusion regarding course registration. Thank you
