UK university · students in Nigeria · United Kingdom · Edinburgh
The University of Brigant is a UK university in Edinburgh. All degree programmes are tuition-free (£0). Students in Nigeria complete a UK award online from Nigeria — the institution is not a campus in Nigeria. Nigeria sits on WAT relative to UK teaching. Online students do not need a UK student visa. Campus study in Edinburgh is a separate immigration path. MBA, Masters, undergraduate, PhD, DBA and certificates use the same quality framework as on-campus cohorts. You remain in Nigeria for teaching, time zone and daily life unless you later choose to relocate to Edinburgh. Admissions is rolling. English-language requirements, documents and the academic calendar are published under Admissions. Start an application when you are ready. Online study has no tuition and no exam fee. Campus tuition and campus examinations are charged separately. Related landings cover UK MBA, Masters and DBA pathways for students in Nigeria, plus schools, research centres and the Edinburgh campus.
