To gain admission into a university in Nigeria, you will need to take the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), which is conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB). You will also need to meet the minimum cut-off mark set by your chosen university.

In addition to the UTME, some universities may also require you to take a post-UTME screening exercise or other entrance exams, depending on their admission requirements.

Regarding affordability, some universities offer scholarships and financial aid to students based on academic performance and financial need. You can inquire about these options with your chosen university.

I hope this information helps!
