FUD Post UTME Screening Form 2026/2027 | How To Apply and Eligibility

FUD Post UTME Screening Form 2026/2027: As an education consultant who has helped many students gain admission into the peaceful and academic-oriented atmosphere of Federal University Dutse (FUD), I can assure you that admission into FUD is achieved through a good JAMB score and an error-free screening. FUD has, over the years, grown in reputation, especially in the fields of Science, Medicine, and Computing.

To gain admission into FUD for the academic session of 2026/2027, you must be prepared for a largely online-based process. This article will be your roadmap to success.

What is FUD Post-UTME?

Post-UTME (Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination) is the internal screening examination used by Federal University Dutse to test the credibility of candidates who chose the school in the JAMB examination. Why is it important? It is the final verification process. They use this process to determine your “Aggregate Score,” which is the sum of your JAMB results and O-Level results. If you miss the screening, the university will not offer you admission, even if you scored 300 in the JAMB examination.

Eligibility Requirements

To be eligible for the 2026/2027 screening, you must meet the following:

• Choice of Institution: You must have chosen Federal University Dutse as your First Choice.

• UTME Score: While cut-off marks are finalized after the JAMB policy meeting, FUD usually sets a baseline of 150. However, competitive courses have higher requirements based on previous years:

  • Medicine & Surgery (MBBS): 220+

  • Nursing Sciences: 220+

  • Cyber Security & Software Engineering: 180+

  • Computer Science & Biochemistry: 170

• O-Level Results: Five (5) credit passes in relevant subjects (including English and Mathematics) in not more than two sittings.

• Direct Entry (DE): DE applicants must have a minimum of 8 points in IJMB/NCE or a Lower Credit in a National Diploma (ND) from a recognized institution.

Screening Format (No Physical Exam)

Going by the pattern established by the university, FUD usually conducts an Online Screening Exercise for its prospective students, and this is done through FUD’s Online Screening Exercise.

• There is no physical CBT exam on campus.
• Screening Exercise: The screening exercise is usually based on the information you provided during registration (JAMB score and O-Level grades).
• Physical Verification: After your provisional admission offer, you will be invited to the campus for a physical verification of your original documents.

Required Documents for Registration

Have these digital copies ready before you begin:

• JAMB Original Result Slip.

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

• A clear, digital Passport Photograph (usually under 100kb).

• Active Email Address and Phone Number.

• Indigene Certificate (for Catchment/ELDS considerations).

Step-by-Step Registration Guide

The registration is conducted via the FUD Post-UTME Portal.

1. Login: Enter your JAMB Registration Number and State of Origin (often used as the default password).

2. Update Profile: Provide your current email, phone number, and address.

3. Generate RRR: Generate a Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR) for the screening fee (usually ₦2,000).

4. Payment: Pay online with your ATM card or take the RRR to any commercial bank.

5. Result Upload: Carefully input your O-Level grades.

6. Document Scan: Upload scanned copies of your results and your passport photograph.

7. Final Printout: Submit and print your Acknowledgment Slip and Payment Receipt.

Calculation of Admission Chances

FUD employs an Aggregate Points System. The general principle behind it is as follows: In this system, an ‘A1’ carries more points than a ‘C6’. Students with good grades in main subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, or Biology (for Medical students) have a greater chance of achieving the departmental cut-off.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Invalid Scratch Cards: If you are using a scratch card for result checker for verification purposes, ensure that it has not expired with regard to the number of times it can be used.
• Failure to Observe JAMB CAPS: You are expected to upload your O-Level results on the JAMB CAPS portal at a CBT center. If your result is not on CAPS, you cannot be “proposed” for admission by FUD.
• Name Differences: Ensure that your name on your WAEC/NECO result is the same as your name on your JAMB profile. Even if there is a small difference in spelling, it may cause problems during physical clearance.

Expert Admission Tips

1. Catchment Area Advantage: FUD is a Federal School and has a catchment area advantage; it is located in Jigawa State. If you are not from the catchment area, then you need to target a JAMB score that is at least 20 points above the cut-off mark.
2. Medicine Candidates: It is very important that if you want to apply to FUD for your MBBS course, then you need to have your five credits in one sitting. Although FUD accepts two sittings, the competition for the Medicine course is very high; hence, you must have your five credits in one sitting.
3. Monitor the Portal: FUD does not often extend its registration deadline; hence, you must monitor the portal from August 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Does FUD accept a combination of WAEC and NECO?

A: Yes, FUD accepts two sittings for almost all courses, provided that the combination is valid.

Q: Do I need to travel to Jigawa for the screening?

A: No. The Post-UTME registration is all online. You only travel to the school after you have been offered admission for your physical clearance.

Q: What if I didn’t choose FUD as my first choice?

A: You must do a “Change of Institution” on the JAMB portal to make FUD your first choice before the screening registration closes.
