CEDEP Degree Programme at Federal College of Education, Abeokuta: School Fees and Payment Information

The Centre for Degree Programme (CEDEP), University of Ibadan, affiliated with the Federal College of Education, Abeokuta, is an academic centre established to provide students with access to degree-level teacher education programmes. Located within the Federal College of Education, Osiele campus in Abeokuta, Ogun State, CEDEP operates in affiliation with the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria, and awards Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) degrees to students who successfully complete the approved programmes.

CEDEP offers degree programmes across various educational disciplines, including Language, Science and other education-related courses available at the centre. Although CEDEP operates within the Federal College of Education campus, it is important for students and prospective applicants to understand that CEDEP and the NCE programme are distinct academic programmes. CEDEP students pursue a university degree and receive a B.Ed. certificate, while students enrolled in the NCE programme receive the Nigeria Certificate in Education.

Consequently, the fees and levies payable by CEDEP students are different from those applicable to NCE students. Students are therefore advised to confirm their programme and level before making any payment.

Important Payment Information

Students should carefully distinguish between CEDEP degree programme charges and fees applicable to the NCE programme. The information provided indicates that all CEDEP payments should be made at the CEDEP Account Office.

Students are encouraged to obtain proper evidence of payment and retain their receipts for future reference. They should also confirm the current fee schedule with the appropriate CEDEP authority before making payment, as proposed fees, levies and institutional charges may be reviewed or updated.

Understanding the fee structure before payment can help students plan their finances appropriately and avoid making payments under the wrong programme or account. CEDEP students should therefore ensure that every payment is made through the designated official channel, and that appropriate receipts or payment evidence are obtained.

NB: School Fees and additional fees are prone to changes.
