Nigerian Defense Academy School Fees Schedule Per Semester

To clarify the issues or questions regarding Nigerian Defense Academy school fees schedule per semester. This have always been the bone of contention among candidates who are planning to apply for NDA course.

Some people claim that Nigerian Defense Academy offers free training; Some other ones claim there are no standard tuition fees paid by students. Also, some assert that the institution pays steady tuition fees, as announced by the management in 2021.

The truth of the matter is that, NDA does not charge any school fees for it’s NDA courses and accommodation. Also, there is no such thing as acceptance fees. The Federal Government takes care of all cadets who study in the NDA. Therefore, no matter which course you have chosen, NDA will not ask you for any payment.

Therefore, if you get any kind of list on your email you should understand that it is fake. The best thing that you can do is to make this information available to the Police or NDA to take some necessary action.

Furthermore, You should be wary of fraudsters who are posing as Major Gen. this and that, asking you to make payments to them for any form of assistance. In my experience, they are all but fraudsters looking at the slightest opportunity to defraud you of your hard earned money.

In order to avoid these unwanted occurrences, It is important to always visit the NDA official portal for any updates regarding applications forms or admission lists.
