description The paper assessed the influence of the mode of non-facilitation of National Open University of Nigeria on students' academic performance in Apapa Study Center, Lagos. The main objective of the study was to determine the level of NOUN non-facilitation in Apapa study center. Data for this study were obtained from primary and secondary sources. Primary data were obtained from 80 respondents through the use of administration of questionnaires. A total of 80 questionnaires were administered to selected students through systematic random sampling techniques in the 8 faculties across the 28 Postgraduate and Undergraduate programmes offered in the study center. The inferential statistic of Chi-square was used for this analysis. The results revealed that there was positive perception of the influence of non-face-to-face facilitation of NOUN on academic performance of students in Apapa Study Center. In addition, this mode of learning gives students leverage opportunity to engage in other activities relating to their courses of study which in turn boost their knowledge and increase their academic performance. It is recommended that Learner Support Services should be intensified and encouraged between the University management, staffs and lecturers to further enhance academic performance.
