Finding a good hostel in the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) or the University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus (UNEC) can be challenging. Every fresher wants a comfortable space with constant light, water, and proximity to classes. Whether you are a new or returning student, this guide explains how to secure the best hostel on campus — fast, easy, and stress-free.

Step-by-Step Guide to Getting the Best Hostel

1. Pay Your School Fees Early

Before you can apply for any hostel, your school fees must be paid and confirmed on the UNN portal. Delay in payment automatically reduces your chances of getting a space.

2. Confirm That the Portal Is Open

The UNN hostel allocation portal opens for a short period each session. Once it does, log in to your student profile immediately. You can use your phone, laptop, or visit a reliable cybercafé.

3. Choose Your Hostel Type

Both campuses have separate hostels for male and female students. Knowing your options before applying helps you decide faster when the portal opens.

At UNN (Nsukka Campus):

  • Male Hostels: Alvan Ikoku, Eni Njoku, Mbanefo, Bello
  • Female Hostels: Okeke, Tetfund, Eyo Ita, Akintola, Isa Kaita, Okpara, among others

At UNEC (Enugu Campus):

  • Male Hostels: Kenneth Dike (IJ), Mbonu Ojike (GH)
  • Female Hostels: Lady Ibiam, Adelabu, Samuel Manuwa, Jereton Marriere, Presidential Hostel

4. Use a Strong Internet Connection

The UNN hostel portal operates on a first-come, first-served basis. Poor internet can delay your submission. Use MTN broadband, campus Wi-Fi, or a stable connection at a cybercafé.

5. Print Your Payment Invoice Immediately

After successful payment and allocation, print your hostel slip and invoice. You will need them during hostel clearance and room confirmation.

Hostel Fees and Capacity

Campus Gender Average Hostel Fee Notes
UNN Nsukka Male/Female ₦20,000 – ₦45,000 Cheaper, close to lecture halls
UNEC Enugu Male/Female ₦25,000 – ₦50,000 Limited space, high demand

If you miss out on a hostel space, consider off-campus lodges early. Prices for off-campus rooms increase rapidly as the semester approaches.

Why a Good Hostel Matters

A comfortable hostel helps students focus better on academics, save transport costs, and enjoy easy access to lecture halls. It also ensures proper rest and safety within the campus environment.

Important Tips for Freshers

  • Handle your hostel allocation personally. Avoid paying anyone to “help” you.
  • Always use the official UNN portal for accommodation payments.
  • Move into the hostel early once allocation is approved to get a better bed and room position.

Final Thoughts

Securing a hostel in UNN or UNEC requires preparation and speed. Pay your fees early, monitor the portal regularly, and act immediately once it opens. With the right timing and reliable internet, you can get the best hostel space on campus and enjoy a smooth academic session.
