💡 Pro Tip: Applying to FUBK is highly streamlined. First, ensure FUBK is your First Choice institution. While the baseline cut-off mark is 140, aim for 200+ if applying for high-demand programs like Medicine, Nursing, or Architecture. For standard undergraduate programs, the Post-UTME screening is entirely online; you simply pay the ₦2,000 fee via Remita, verify your NIN, and upload your documents. However, if you are admitted through the School of Basic Studies, you must attend a physical credential verification screening at the Jega Road campus, carrying your original O'Level results, birth certificate, and indigene letter.
Direct Entry (DE) candidates must possess a minimum qualification of Lower Credit in a National Diploma (ND) from a recognized institution, or a minimum of 7 points in NCE/IJMB, alongside the standard O'Level requirements.
Standard undergraduate Post-UTME screening is conducted strictly ONLINE via the eForms portal (no physical visit required). However, candidates admitted into the School of Basic Studies (SBS) must undergo a mandatory physical screening exercise at the Take-off Site (Jega Road) with their original O'Level results, Birth Certificate, and Indigene Certificate.
