Good question. I couldn’t find any reliable source that clearly states a *“registration fee”* specifically for non-indigenes for **2025/2026** at Kano University of Science & Technology (KUST / ADUSTECH).

Here’s what I found (and where things are unclear):

* According to KUST’s fee schedule for 2025/2026, non-indigene students have a **tuition fee** of ₦50,800. ([Researchaffairs][1])
* EduUpdates also reports the non-indigene school fee (which may include registration-type costs) as ₦50,800. ([Edu Updates][2])
* However, **Myschoolnews** reports that ADUSTECH (formerly KUST) *reduced* the “registration fee” for non-indigene students to **₦115,000** (from ₦163,000). ([Myschoolnews][3])
* Another source (Scribd document) for ADUSTECH shows “registration charges” for non-indigenes at **₦185,000** for 200-300 level students. ([Scribd][4])

Because these numbers don’t align, there seems to be confusion between **tuition**, **school fees**, and **registration/central fees**. It’s possible that:

1. The “₦50,800” is just the **tuition** component.
2. The “registration charge” is a different, additional fee — possibly separate from tuition.
3. The fee varies depending on student level (freshers vs returning) or student year (200-300 level).

**My best estimate** based on available sources:

* **Registration fee for non-indigenes** might be around **₦115,000** (based on Myschoolnews) ([Myschoolnews][3])
* But total “registration + school fees” may go higher (up to ~₦185,000) depending on level, according to the Scribd document. ([Scribd][4])

**Recommendation:**
To be sure, check the **official KUST / ADUSTECH student portal** ([https://kustwudil.edu.ng/](https://kustwudil.edu.ng/)) or contact their bursary / admissions office. Their website should have the most accurate and up-to-date breakdown. ([kustwudil.edu.ng][5])
