Overview

Achievers University, located in Owo, Ondo State, is a premier private university established in 2007. Celebrating nearly two decades of academic excellence, the institution has rapidly expanded its footprint to include a robust College of Medicine, a Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, and a College of Engineering. Operating under the motto 'Knowledge, Integrity and Leadership', Achievers uniquely ensures every student graduates with both a bachelor's degree and a professional diploma.

The Owo campus offers an idyllic, tranquil environment conducive to deep academic focus. The university mandates a fully residential policy, ensuring students live in secure, structured on-campus hostels (ranging from ₦250,000 to ₦350,000). Students are supported by highly modernized laboratories and a curriculum that integrates strict ethical development.

💡 Pro Tip: Admission into Achievers University is highly accessible but standard-driven. While a JAMB score of 150 guarantees eligibility for most programs, candidates targeting high-tier courses like MBBS (which requires a 1-sitting O'Level result) or Pharmacy must secure higher scores. Prospective students are strongly encouraged to leverage the university's lucrative 3-year tuition-free scholarship options available for 12 specific Science and Management courses. If finances are tight, remember you can utilize the 3-installment payment plan to ease the burden.

Applicants must obtain a minimum of five (5) O'Level credit passes in relevant subjects (including English Language and Mathematics) at not more than two sittings.

Engineering requires ND (Upper Credit) or A-Levels in Math/Physics. For 300-Level: Candidates must hold an HND in their respective fields or professional certificates like ACCA, ACIB, ACIS, ACIN, and ACIT.
