A study on TETFUND projects in the Southeastfound that project success and cost performance are crucial for building projects. The study used a census technique,questionnaires, and content validity to confirm the instrument's inclusivity and relevance to strategic leadership andproject management sustainability. The study reveals that the cost of every project is important, regardless offunding, and that cost availability has hindered any TETfund project at State universities in South-East, Nigeria.The majority of respondents strongly agreed that cost determines whether a TETfund project is completed with orwithout a supervisor, and that cost gives contractors more chance of income during the TETfund project period.Furthermore, the cost of the project motivates workers to complete it within an appropriate period. The analysisshows that TETfund cost has a positive effect on the completion rate of projects across State Universities in South-East, Nigeria, with an average mean value of 3.65>3.00. The test of hypotheses showed that TETfund cost has nosignificant positive effect on the completion rate of projects across State Universities in South-East, Nigeria. Theresults showed that the model in this table has a statistically significant positive effect, and the alternate conclusionis accepted, as TETfund cost had a significant positive effect on the completion rate of the project across StateUniversities
