The management of the Petroleum Training Institute (PTI) has announced the deadline for payment of school fees and registration for the 2026/2027 Academic Session.
Newly admitted and returning students are advised to pay up all the fees required by the school before the deadline.
PTI School Fees and Registration Deadline
The Petroleum Training Institute (PTI) has announced the deadline for payment of fees. The deadline for fees is March 2026.
It is not considered valid if you pay your school fees after the deadline, and you may go through many filing processes to get your money.
The penalty for defaulting is a loss of studentship for the 2026/2027 Academic Session.
Also, note that the lost session shall form part of the total duration allowed for the Programme.
However, a student who has a genuine reason(s) to apply for Temporary Withdrawal from Studies for the session must follow the due process before the end of the First Semester of the session.
How Much is PTI School Fees?
PTI school fees vary depending on your enrolled program, and tuition itself is free, as PTI is funded to not charge tuition. What you pay is a bundle of registration, consumables, ICT, examination, and other compulsory charges. Check your appropriate program below for the PTI school fees 2026/2027 breakdown.
The Petroleum Training Institute PTI school fees schedule below is internally consistent, with every line item adding up to the stated total. That is a good sign it reflects a genuine document.
Some current trackers report a lower projected range, around N120,000 to N135,000 for ND 1 freshers and N125,000 to N140,000 for HND 1. If your invoice differs from the figures below, check with the bursary rather than assuming either is wrong:

PTI Hostel Accommodation Rates
Accommodation is compulsory at PTI.
| S/NO | ROOM SIZE / NUMBER OF BUNKS | HOSTEL RATE PER STUDENT (N) |
| 1 | PTDF Hostel, One (1) Double Bunk | 75,000 |
| 2 | PTDF Hostel, Two (2) Double Bunks | 65,000 |
| 3 | PTDF Hostel, Three (3) Double Bunks | 45,000 |
| 4 | PTDF Hostel, Four (4) Double Bunks | 40,000 |
| 5 | NDDC Hostel | 30,000 |
| 6 | NOBLE Hostel | 30,000 |
| 7 | MALE Hostel | 30,000 |
How Much is PTI Acceptance Fee?
Sources currently disagree on the exact PTI acceptance fee: some cite N25,000, while others project N35,000 for 2026/2027. Confirm the exact figure on your admission letter or the student portal before paying, since this is one of the few amounts without a clear consensus.
New intakes must pay their acceptance fees to be considered students.
How Much is PTI Hostel Fee?
Students who want to stay in the hostel accommodations made available by the school authorities would have to apply before time, since accommodation is compulsory.
Rates vary by hostel and bunk count, from N30,000 (NDDC, NOBLE, and MALE hostels) up to N75,000 (PTDF Hostel, single double bunk) per the table above. A separate N25,000 flat figure is also cited by some current trackers as the “approved” accommodation fee, so confirm which applies to your allocated hostel with student affairs.
Compulsory Accommodation Shapes the PTI Total
Hostel space is not optional at the Petroleum Training Institute, which changes how you read these figures. The cheapest bed at N30,000 and the dearest at N75,000 add a mandatory N45,000 swing to every student.
An ND 1 student paying N150,150 in fees therefore needs between N180,150 and N225,150 before acceptance, which is reported at either N25,000 or N35,000 depending on source.
Second year is far lighter. ND 2 drops to N94,160 because caution, accreditation, verification, matriculation and several other one-time lines fall away, a saving of N55,990.
General Welding is the dearest route at N159,500, carrying its own N16,500 charge. Swimming proficiency at N11,000 becomes optional for returning students, and the deadline is March 2026.
