Afe Babalola University Ado Ekiti, ABUAD Information, Requirements for Undergraduate Students 2022/2023

The primary objective of the University is to nurture students who will be able to impact positively not only on their immediate environment but also on the larger society.

As a result, identifying and admitting students who, due to their demonstrable academic competence and demonstrated innate personal qualities, are best suited to imbibe and put into practise the principles of hard work and excellence for which the Founder is famous and upon which the University was founded, is a critical component of realising the University’s objectives.

ABUAD is devoted to providing equal opportunity to all prospective students, regardless of race, creed, political affiliation, or financial position. Indeed, the University’s Endowment Fund, in addition to providing scholarships to worthy students, already ensures that the cost of the University’s high-quality education is heavily subsidised.
