Our History
Crescent University Abeokuta is a brainchild of His Excellency Prince Bola Ajibola (SAN, CFR), former judge of the International Court of Justice. The university prides itself as the Citadel of Academic and Moral Excellence. Crescent was licensed and established in 2005 after approval by the Federal Government through the National Universities Commission (NUC). The vision of its founder was:
To breed global citizens rather than “brilliant beats”.
To nurture girl child education as majority of females especially Muslims were at a disadvantage.
The university has since produced a galaxy of stars and industry captains within and outside Nigeria. Many of its Alumni who made first class as undergraduates have replicated similar feats in universities in Europe and America during their postgraduate studies. Others have also made first class at the Nigerian Law School during their call to bar. Crescent University proudly parades alumni in top jobs such as the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Central Bank of Nigeria, Nestle Foods, Dangote Group, Federal Internal Revenue Service, and Guarantee Trust Bank, to mention but a few.
Hundreds of Crescent University graduates have benefitted from scholarships by the proprietor and other philanthropists.

What Our Students Say About Us
Quality education is beyond what we are taught, it’s defined by how much opportunity is given to us to learn beyond what could be imparted. Crescent University gives all it takes to be greater than our dreams.
