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

NMU Post UTME Form for 2026/2027: Are you aspiring to live your dreams either on the ocean or in the dynamic maritime industry? Then look no further than Nigeria Maritime University (NMU), Okerenkoko, which offers everything you need to explore in the maritime industry in Nigeria.

I am a university admission consultant, and I have encountered several brilliant students who did not attend the institution because they did not pass the university’s “Silent Screening,” even though their results were up to the mark. This guide will keep you from making this same mistake during the 2026/2027 admission season.

Eligibility Requirements

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

• First Choice Only: NMU strictly considers candidates who chose the university as their First Choice.

• JAMB Cut-off Mark: The baseline cut-off is usually 160. However, highly competitive courses like Marine Engineering often require 180 – 200+ hours for a realistic chance.

• O-Level Subjects: You must have five (5) credit passes in English, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and one other science subject (usually Biology or Geography) in no more than two sittings.

• Direct Entry (DE): DE applicants must have a minimum of Lower Credit in a relevant National Diploma (ND) or acceptable points in IJMB/JUPEB.

Required Documents & Information

Since the process is automated, you don’t “upload” files in the traditional sense, but you need these details for the bio-data form:

1. JAMB Registration Number.

2. Active Email and Phone Number (the ones used for JAMB).

3. O-level Result details (to ensure they match what is on CAPS).

4. Local Government Identification/Certificate of Origin.
