Residency Outweighs Faculty at Rivers State University
The gap between indigene and non-indigene rates is the dominant figure on this schedule. Fresh students from outside Rivers State pay ₦50,000 more in the general faculties and ₦60,000 more in medicine.
Faculty choice moves far less. A fresh indigene pays ₦70,000 in Humanities, ₦80,000 in Engineering or Law and ₦90,000 in the medical sciences, a span of only ₦20,000 across the whole university.
Second year brings a worthwhile drop. Indigenes save ₦15,000 in the general faculties, ₦20,000 in Engineering and Law, and ₦10,000 in the medical sciences.
The surrounding charges are substantial. Acceptance at ₦50,000 and a hostel place near ₦40,000 take a fresh indigene in Humanities to roughly ₦160,000, so confirm both before the session begins.
