List Of Accredited Distance Learning Universities In Nigeria

Posted on October 25, 2025 By CampusTimesNG No Comments on List Of Accredited Distance Learning Universities In Nigeria

This page contains the list of accredited distance learning universities in Nigeria. Distance learning Programmes are not common here in Nigeria due to over-reliance on conventional form of education offered by colleges and universities.

Albeit, in this era of information technology, some higher institution have suddenly realized the need to extend higher education such as degrees and diplomas to those who will need it from anywhere in the world.

Accredited Distance Learning Universities In Nigeria

Distance learning centres are good alternatives to conventional university programmes. You receive your lectures from home or office and you acquire the same degree as regular students get at the end of your programme.

However, not all universities have distance learning program accredited by the National university commission (NUC).
