OThe study examined the perception and opinions of college students about HIV/AIDS and its prevention strategies. One hundred and sixty subjects were selectedfrom the five schools in the college. A 15 item questionnaire that measured the perception and opinions of college students about HIV/ AIDS and its prevention strategies was administered to each of the subjects. The data obtained was analyzed using T-test at 0.05 level of significance. The findings showed that there was no gender difference in terms of their knowledge and opinion on HIV/AIDS. Also there was no significant difference between Christian and Muslim college students; the null hypothesis is therefore accepted.
