Ajayi Crowther University

The Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo was established by the Supra Diocesan Board (West) of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion), and has its origins in the defunct CMS training institution, Abeokuta and the defunct St. Andrews College, Oyo. Having satisfied the rigorous criteria prescribed by the National Universities Commission for the establishment of universities in Nigeria, Ajayi Crowther University was granted a licence to operate as a private university in Nigeria on 7 January 2005. The University’s vision is to be a top-class institution pursuing knowledge and scholarship through teaching, learning, research and exemplary service to humanity.
