Evangel University, Akaeze (EUA) is a private Christian university in Ebonyi state. It is owned by the Assemblies of God Christian denomination.[4] The university was licensed in February, 2012 and commenced academic activities on 27 November 2012 for the 2012/2013 academic session.[5][6] The university began operation at its take-off campus in Okpoto with two colleges and one school. It has since been extended to four colleges while work is ongoing in view of a planned move to its permanent campus at Akaeze.[7]
Full accreditation was obtained from the National Universities Commission, NUC in 2016.[8] The school is one of Nigeria's least expensive private universities.[9] A 2016 survey report by Economic Confidential described Evangel University as one of the less popular destinations for students seeking admission to higher institutions.[10]
