- Some Nigeria banks to open a domiciliary account with are GTbank, Firstbank, Diamond bank, and Zenith bank.
- Search for how to open a domiciliary account with Gtbank, Firstbank and Zenith bank on this website
- Once, you open a domiciliary account let say with GTBank; the next step is to fund the domiciliary account with the require amount you wish to pay as school fees abroad.
- To fund the account, foreign exchange Company, like Travelex may offer better foreign exchange rate option than the black market (BDCs).
- Show GTbank staff the admission letter and they will give form to fill the university bank details and to also add your student name and student ID number.
- You need to have extra money on your domiciliary account for bank transfer charges. The bank charges include; telex transfer charge (optional but necessary), off shore charges
- and £10 if the correspondence bank need to deduct.
HOW TO PAY SCHOOL FEES FROM NIGERIA THROUGH AGENTS
- There are many agents (both local and international agents) that claim to offer the service of helping students who are offered admission abroad to pay for their school fees. Shine your eyes before you proceed with them because I don't trust them
