STEPS TO TAKE FOR SCHOOL FEES PAYMENT 2015/2016 SESSION

FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, OWERRI
GUIDELINES FOR PAYMENT OF 2015/2016 SESSION FEES
FOR BOTH NEW AND RETURNING STUDENTS

The following is the approved guidelines and procedure for
payment of 2015/2016 session fees for both new and
returning students of the Federal University of Technology,
Owerri (FUTO). Parents and students are particularly
requested to take note of the fact that there is no increment
in fees from those of the 2014/2015 session. This is
courtesy of the University Management, under the
leadership of our most amiable and understanding Vice
Chancellor, Professor Chigozie C. Asiabaka . The procedure
is as follows:

Step 1:
First visit and login to the Edu-portal www.futoportal.org
using your FUTO or JAMB RegNo as Reg Number and using
the word “password” as Password .

Step 2:
Click on Edit Profile to upload your passport photograph
and supply your valid phone number and email address
Warning: You have only one chance to upload your passport
photograph yourself. Kindly ensure that you make no
mistakes. However, for those who eventually make a
mistake, they would need to apply to the Director, ICT
Centre for removal and replacement of the wrong passport
photographs. Also note that without uploading your
passport photograph, you will not be able to print your
school fees receipt, after successful payment.

Step 3:
Click on School Fees to generate your payment invoice for
the session, as appropriate.

Step 4:
Click on GENERATE INVOICE to generate your payment
invoice.

Step 5(a):
Click on Print Invoice to print your invoice, after-which you
log out and proceed to any bank to make payment using
your Remita RRR Code , displayed on your printed payment
invoice.

Step 5(b):
Alternatively, you can click on Pay Now to use online
payment option with credit/debit cards such as Verve, Visa,
MasterCard, etc.
These two methods of payment, based on Remita payment
platform, make our portal quite robust, and give our
students the luxury of staying at the comfort of their homes
or hostels or elsewhere, without joining long queues at bank,
if they choose to use their credit/debit cards to make online
payment, directly from our portal. For those who would like
to pay at the bank, kindly ensure that the bank captures the
Remita RRR code, displayed on your printed payment
invoice.

Step 6:
After successful payment at the bank, kindly return to the
Edu-portal www.futoportal.org and login with your
appropriate Reg Number and Password.

Step 7:
Click on Receipts to print out your official school fees
receipt with your true passport clearly shown and displayed.
Remarks:
New/Fresh students will not be able to pay fees until
their Clearance form (Form 6) has been approved in the
Department.
Both new and returning students having any issues with
the above online payment procedure should submit a
formal application to the Director, ICT Centre, specifying
the exact issues and challenges they might be having.
Students are once more reminded that payment of fees
is compulsory for students to attend lectures, write
examinations and have access to University facilities and
services.
