The primary objective of the University is to nurture students who will be able to impact positively not only on their immediate environment but also on the larger society.

The import of this objective is the identification and admission of students with ascertainable academic competence and innate personal qualities. Those who are best suited to imbibe and put into practice the principles of “Afeism” (hardwork, determination, integrity and excellence) for which the Founder (Aare Afe Babalola, SAN..) is renowned and upon which the University has come into existence.
