The Vice Chancellor(VC) of the institution, Prof. Emmanuel Aluyor, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Monday, in Iyamho-Uzairue, in the Estako-West local government area of Edo that the university offers world-class infrastructure and state-of-the art facilities hence the high fees.
According to him, the fees range from between N400, 000 and N450, 000 a session.
“And that depends from which perspective you are looking at it.
“If it is from the perspective of a private university, our fees are very low indeed, because there is no private university that charges anything lower than what we offer.
“And only one or two public universities charge the same fees as us and that also depends on the quality of infrastructure and programmes on offer.
“The idea of the founding fathers is for anyone to have an ambiance of everything he desires abroad in any university environment here,’’ Aluyor said.
“I am proud to mention that we have a dress code among our students, while all our lectures are multi-media assisted.
“We may not be proud of this information that in our first year, we had less than 80 students admitted. But I can tell you that we had cause to expel four of them.
“We may be young; but it does not mean we will accept every Dick and Harry as students. I think what we did was showing capacity to instil discipline.
“We have also had cause to sanction three members of staff. We are not happy to have sent them into the unemployment market.
“But we are saying that if you can not measure up with the standard we have set down, you certainly can’t be part of the vision of the founding fathers of this university,’’ he said.
