How to Apply for UNIABUJA Post UTME and Direct Entry
The University of Abuja has announced online registration for the 2025/2026 Post-UTME and Direct Entry screening. Candidates must meet set requirements, register within the given dates, and pay the prescribed fee to be considered for admission. Full details are outlined below.
Latest Update:
The University of Abuja has announced that the online registration for the 2024/2025 Post-UTME Screening has been extended to Saturday, 26th October 2024.
This extension allows those who haven’t completed their registration to do so.
If you’ve picked the University of Abuja as your first choice in UTME, or you’re coming in through Direct Entry, the clock is already ticking. From Thursday 14 August 2025 until Friday 5 September 2025, the school wants you to log on and get your name in for the Post-UTME screening. Miss the date, and well, there’s no back door.
It’s not for everyone though, so best to check the rules before rushing.
Who can actually apply
The school’s line-up of conditions is pretty direct.
- UTME applicants need at least 180 in their UTME score and must hit the programme cut-off for their chosen course.
- You need 5 credits, including Maths and English, in O’Level, all from not more than two sittings.
- O’Level results must be uploaded on the JAMB portal.
- Direct Entry applicants can present NCE, IJMB, ND, First Degree, or HND. If you have JUPEB or NABTEB A-Level, this is not for you.
- All A-Level results for Direct Entry must be uploaded on the JAMB Portal and confirmed by the issuing school.
- Age limit? You must be 16 years or older by 30 September 2025.
- UTME subject combinations must match your course needs.
- If your result is still “awaiting”, just hold on. This screening isn’t open for you.

And as we’d say, no dulling — the window closes fast.
