University Of Ilorin (INILORIN) Reopens School Fee Payment Portal, Says Deadline Yet to Be Announced

The University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) has officially reopened its school fee payment portal, giving students another opportunity to complete their payments for the 2025/2026 academic session. The announcement comes as a relief to many undergraduates who were either unable to pay before the portal initially closed or had encountered technical challenges during the first payment window.

While the portal is now live and accessible, the University management has not yet announced a new deadline, leaving the timeline open for now. This development has sparked widespread discussion among students across various faculties, especially those who have been waiting anxiously for an update on the reopening.

Why the Portal Reopening Matters

The reopening of the school fees portal is particularly important for:

1. Students Waiting for Financial Clearance

Many students rely on instalments, external sponsors, or financial assistance to complete their fees. The extended access gives them more breathing space.

2. Students Affected by NELFUND Delays

With the ongoing rollout of the Nigeria Education Loan Fund (NELFUND), thousands of students nationwide are still awaiting their fee payments or upkeep allowances. For many UNILORIN students, the reopened portal allows them to settle outstanding fees once their NELFUND disbursement lands.

3. New Students Still Regularizing Their Admission

Freshers and Direct Entry students are still completing physical screening, course registration, and departmental clearance. The portal reopening ensures they don’t risk missing out due to time constraints.
