Top universities in Nigeria 2024

 

Introduction

What are the most popular Colleges and Universities in Nigeria? uniRank answers this question by publishing the 2024 Nigerian University Ranking of 160 Nigerian higher-education institutions meeting the following uniRank selection criteria:

• being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate Nigerian higher education-related organization
• offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees
• delivering courses predominantly in a traditional, non-distance education format

uniRank aims to provide a non-academic League Table of the top Nigerian Universities and Colleges based on valid, unbiased and non-influenceable web metrics provided by independent web intelligence sources rather than data submitted by the Universities themselves.
