FUBK Post UTME Form for 2026/2027 | How To Apply and Eligibility

FUBK Post UTME Form for 2026/2027: This guide provides a detailed, step-by-step roadmap to help you navigate the FUBK Post-UTME exercise successfully.

What is Post-UTME and Why is it Important?

Post-UTME stands for Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination. It is a screening exercise conducted by universities in Nigeria to evaluate candidates who met the JAMB cut-off mark.

At FUBK, this is the final stage of the admission process. It allows the university to verify your credentials and ensure you are qualified for your chosen course. If you do not participate in this screening, you cannot be admitted, regardless of your JAMB score.

Eligibility Requirements

To be eligible for the FUBK 2026/2027 screening, you must meet these criteria:

• First Choice: You must have chosen Federal University Birnin Kebbi as your First Choice institution. If you didn’t, you must apply for a “Change of Institution” on the JAMB portal.

• Minimum UTME Score: While the general cut-off is usually 140–150, competitive courses have higher requirements. Based on previous years:

  • Medicine & Surgery: 240+

  • Nursing Science: 220+

  • Anatomy/Physiology/Computer Science: 200+

• O’Level Results: You need at least five (5) credits in relevant subjects, including English Language and Mathematics, in no more than two sittings.

• Direct Entry (DE): Must have a minimum of Lower Credit at National Diploma (ND) or 7 points at NCE/IJMB.

Post-UTME Screening Format

FUBK typically uses a Strictly Online Screening format.

• The Process: You do not need to travel to the campus for a CBT exam. Instead, you upload your results and documents to the university portal for verification.

• Point-Based System: The university calculates your aggregate score based on your JAMB and O’level results.

Required Documents for Registration

Have scanned copies (PDF or JPEG) of the following ready:

• Original JAMB Result Slip.

• O’Level Result(s) (WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB).

• Recent Passport Photograph (usually with a plain background).

• Evidence of payment for the screening (Remita Receipt).

Step-by-Step Registration Guide

1. Visit the Portal: Go to the official [suspicious link removed].

2. Create Account: Click on “Create Account” and provide your basic details.

3. Generate Invoice: Select the “PUTME Form” and enter your JAMB Registration Number to generate an invoice for N2,000.

4. Make Payment: Pay the fee online via Remita or at any commercial bank.

5. NIN Verification: Follow the instructions on the portal to verify your National Identity Number (NIN).

6. Upload Results: Enter your O’level grades and upload the scanned certificates.

7. Final Submission: Review your data carefully, submit, and print your Registration Slip.

Important Dates and Deadlines

Official dates for 2026 are usually announced after JAMB results are fully released.

• Expected Commencement: August or September 2026.

• Duration: The portal typically remains open for 4–6 weeks.

• Advice: Avoid “last-minute” registration to prevent issues with payment confirmation or portal downtime.

How the Admission Score is Calculated

FUBK uses a weighted average of your JAMB score and your O’level grades.

While the exact ratio can vary slightly by session, it often follows a 60/40 or 70/30 split.

• JAMB Score: Contributes the largest portion.

• O’Level Grades: Points are awarded for A1, B2, B3, etc., in your five core subjects.

• One Sitting Bonus: Candidates with a single-sitting result sometimes receive a small point advantage over those with two sittings.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Wrong Subject Combination: Ensure your JAMB subjects match the FUBK requirements for your course.

• Failing to Upload to JAMB CAPS: This is the most common reason for admission failure. You must upload your O’level results at a JAMB-accredited CBT center.

• Incorrect NIN Data: Ensure the name on your NIN matches your JAMB and O’level documents.

• Blurry Scans: If your uploaded documents are unreadable, your application will be rejected.

Admission Tips for Success

1. Check JAMB CAPS Weekly: Once the screening is over, monitor your CAPS profile to accept your admission as soon as it is offered.

2. Verify Your O’level Upload: Log into your JAMB profile and click “My O’level” to ensure your results are visible.

3. Target High Grades: If your JAMB score is on the “borderline,” having strong O’level grades (A’s and B’s) can significantly boost your aggregate.
