Kwara State University (KWASU), Malete, is the 95th university established in Nigeria and the 77th university to be registered under the Nigerian Union of Universities (NUC). It came into existence in 2009, under the leadership of Dr. Bukola Saraki<\/a>, who was the governor of Kwara State at the time. Before this date, a planning committee was set up under the former governor of Kwara State by Bukola Saraki on 11th July 2007. The bill was signed into law on 24th December 2008. Subsequently, the university was registered with the Nigerian Union of Universities (NUC) in 2009. In July 2009, the First Vice-Chancellor of the university, Professor Abdul Rasheed Na’Allah, was appointed, and the academic activities kicked off fully that same year.<\/p>\n
More so, the university was designed to be a center for community service and entrepreneurship; therefore, it runs numerous academic centers. These centers include Center for Ecology and Environmental Management and Studies (CEERMS), Center for Oral Traditions in Africa, Institute for Asian Studies, Center for Pre-degree and Remedial Studies, Center for Modernity and Religion, Center for Entrepreneurship, Center for Innovation in Teaching and Research, etc.<\/p>\n

Kwasu School Fees<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Kwara State University is a government-owned institution that pays its school fees per academic session. Also, like other state universities, indigenes pay less than non-indigenes. In addition, there are other fees to be paid by the students that are not included in the school fees. Failure to pay the stipulated fees by any student attracts a late payment charge of 20 percent of the amount to be paid.<\/p>\n
