List of Private Universities Offering Medicine & Surgery

When seeking admission to Medicine and Surgery, one crucial factor to keep in mind is the level of competition, especially when considering federal or state universities. 

Typically, students with the highest JAMB scores gravitate towards these institutions, often receiving preferential treatment.

If you are open to the possibility of higher tuition fees compared to federal and state universities, private universities present a less competitive alternative. 

With a moderately elevated JAMB score, you stand a better chance of securing admission in this setting. Whether you make this choice during JAMB registration or opt for the change of institution/course later on, I can assist you in navigating the official JAMB brochure and the admission portals of individual private universities.

As of now, there are only 27 federal-owned and 28 state-owned universities accredited to offer Medicine and Surgery in Nigeria. Consequently, the limited number of private universities offering this program should come as no surprise.

Over time, more private universities are likely to obtain accreditation to offer Medicine and new institutions may emerge in this field. Rest assured that I will update this post when such developments occur.
