Suspect33: It's even possible after you've collected your admission letter. Though you can't change from a non-competitive course to a competitive one at that stage, e.g Chemistry to MBBS. |

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) on ABU, Zaria admission process and answers: 1. WHEN IS THE POST UTME? I have been asked this question so many times that answering it has become monotonous. The Post UTME usually comes in July or August. It has no fixed date yet, but expect it in July or August. 2. WHAT IS ABU'S CUT-OFF MARK? ABU, Zaria has no fixed cut-off mark. It is always 180 every year for all courses, so chances it'll be changed is very low. 3. CAN I GET MEDICINE WITH THIS JAMB SCORE? You can get Medicine with 235. What most aspirants always fail to realize is that the Post UTME is actually the major determiner of your admission not your JAMB score. Someone with 220 in JAMB may end up securing a course someone with 260 in JAMB fails to secure because of performance in PUTME. In 2017, someone from Oyo couldn't get MBBS with a JAMB score of 320 because he got just 256 in the PUTME, making his Average 288. Many MBBS aspirants from Oyo scored a higher average so he couldn't make it. If he had scored 300+ and made an average of about 330 with such a good score, he'd have been surely admitted. 4. IS THERE ANY CENTER I CAN SIT FOR THE POST UTME IN MY AREA? No! No! There's nothing like that, and it's not going to be available anytime soon. If you fail to report to your Post UTME centre in Samaru Main Campus, Zaria after printing your schedule slip, you'll not be considered for any admission. The slip will be available after you've registered for the PUTME. For now the Post UTME forms are not out for sale, and you purchase it online without going to Zaria. 5. DOES ABU ADMIT CHRISTIANS? I'm always shocked when I'm confronted with this question considering the large number of Christians I see everyday on campus. ABU has one of the largest Christian chapels in Nigeria located in Samaru Campus. There's also a very big cathedral located in Kongo for all Christian students. They also have an association named CFA with an elected president. To wrap this up, consider the fact that JAMB awarded ABU the most "secular university" award. This means it admits candidates from all parts of the federation than any other university in Nigeria. 6. PAST QUESTIONS: Past questions in ABU are scam. I've said this many times. Most of the past questions you'll see were formulated by businessmen just to convince you to buy them when they're actually far from the reality of ABU's Post UTME. They only want to make their money. I laugh at those who are so busy looking for "past questions." Study the four subjects you sat for in your UTME, these are where the questions will come from not an imaginary "past question." ABU doesn't repeat questions or publish her past questions. 7. DOES ABU ADMIT SOUTHERNERS? Yes, they do but no southern state is a catchment area of ABU, making their admission slot low when compared to the 19 northern states which constitute the catchment area of ABU. Don't be shocked when someone from a state like Enugu couldn't secure Medicine with an average of 300 while someone from Gombe with 256 does. This is because only one slot is given to such non-catchment areas like Enugu state. The person with 300 might have been denied because there's another person from Enugu with 305 who's the highest MBBS aspirant from Enugu state. As for the one from Gombe with 256, it's a catchment area that almost 8 people can be admitted from, hence making it possible for someone with such a score to make it. With the Post UTME just around the corner, I present to you another series of frequently asked questions (FAQS) on the admission process of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. 8. When is the Post UTME? I've answered this question thousands of times, "I don't know." The date is not fixed, so it comes randomly. However, it's of paramount importance to note that it usually comes in August or September. 9. How much is ABU, Zaria school fees? Generally, ABU is considered the cheapest federal university in Nigeria. The school fees differ from department to department, with none more than N35,000. As for Law students, I know it's N29,500 because I'm one. The fees covers all of your acceptance fee, library fee, faculty fee and others. 10. Are there Boko Haram in ABU? I guffawed when I was first asked that question. This question is mostly asked by those who have never been to the north. Boko Haram, becoming a thing of the past now was peculiar to north-eastern states only like Borno, Yobe, Gombe, Adamawa and Bauchi. It didn't spread up to the North-West, ABU is located. 11. Should I go with my credentials for the PUTME? No! No!! No!!! The only thing you're expected to go to Zaria with is your Post UTME schedule slip. Before you ask me what that is, it is a slip that contains your exam venue and date. You'll be able to print it after you've purchased the Post UTME form and registered online. Go with at least 2-3 copies of that only. Unless you want to stay in Zaria till the admissions will be released, you're advised to go with all your credentials. 12. What are the screening requirements? After you might have been admitted, you'll be screened before collection of admission letter. You're expected to go with: A. Original o'level result B. JAMB result (original) C. Original JAMB admission letters (if JAMB admits you on CAPS) D. PUTME result slip E. PUTME schedule slip F. Origunal Birth certificate/oath of affidavit G. Original local government of origin certificate H. transcation slips including the remitta you generated via the bank I. JAMB slip 13. Accommodation? The accommodation fee is just N7,090. You'll click for a room online, either with a computer system or with your smartphone. The date for the clicking will be announced. You're all expected to click it at the announced time. It's very competitive as many people click it. Therefore, it's advisable to use a well-charged device with a good and fast internet connection. 14. Nature of Post UTME: It is a replica of your UTME. It's computer based and it involves all the subjects you sat for in your JAMB. The mark is also over 400, but English Language usually carries 25 questions, while the other 3 carry 15 questions each, making it 70 questions. The exam will be conducted in Samaru Main Campus. It's a bit technical than your UTME, so prepare harder for it. © Adams Abubakar Drop any further questions the comment box below. �� |

How to register your ABU-PUTME yourself. 1. Take a picture of your passport (or if you have one already, that's also fine). You find a way to compress the passport of you which you plan to upload. The size shouldn't be more than 100kb. Mine was 92kb. The app I used in compressing is called *Lit Photo*. It's available for free on Google play store. 2. You generate your 12-Figured RRR number (you might want to screenshot/grab the page). You take it to the bank. The total amount to be paid by you is N2,157.50k. The N157. 50k is Remita's commission so you know. Make sure you collect your receipts from the bank (Teller and Electronic). 3. With those done, you relogin... Your payment should reflect almost immediately. You can then click on proceed to continue. 4. When done with the registration process and get to the point where you have to print your slip (I am assuming you would be using Mozilla Firefox), on the topmost right hand corner of the screen there are three parallel dots. When you click on it, it drops down to reveal several options. The one you should click on is *Page*. On clicking page you should see *Save as PDF*, that's what you should click on. 5. Go print at a café, it should cost at most N50. Don't go and give those guys free money. Ps: It's imperative you note the following: 1. The space for your phone number and email would be blank, there's no cause for alarm. I had to crosscheck at a café and I also saw that of some other lady who did hers entirely at a café. 2. You can pay with Debit cards, Visa especially. 3. Don't bother printing your "schedule", it's blank. There's nothing to worry about. 1 Like |

Handsome507:This is another series of the frequently asked questions (FAQS) on ABU D.E admission process. 1. DOES ABU ACCEPT DE AWAITING RESULT? Yes, they do. However, make sure it's ready before the physical screening of your documents. 2. HOW MUCH IS THE D.E REGISTRATION FEE? The registration fee is just N2,000. You can pay online using your account or by generating a remitta from the càfe which will indicate the account you'll pay into. At the càfe, you'll be required to pay the càfe man/woman their money. Charges differ from area to area and you alone know how to negotiate with them on that. 3. ARE WE COMING TO ZARIA FOR ANY EXAM? No, you're not. Your screening will be online. You can do that even if you're in Jupiter, as far as there's internet connection. 4. WHAT ARE THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS FOR THE SCREENING? Upload a scanned copy of your qualification, either your IJMB/GCE/ND/diploma result to the portal. 5. ARE WE TO PURCHASE ANY D.E FORM? Yes, you will purchase the ABU D.E screening form after you might have paid your registration fee. You can print it out from any good càfe around your area. 6. WHAT POINT DO I NEED TO HAVE TO BE ADMITTED? I don't really know, only God knows. However, the minimum requirement is Lower Credit and above. Put it at the back of your mind that there'll be people with Credit, 2nd Class Upper or even Distinction. 7. CAN SECOND CHOICE CANDIDATES APPLY? ABU only accepts those who made them 1st choice during registration. You won't be considered for admission if you pick ABU as second or third choice. 8. WHEN SHOULD WE EXPECT THE ADMISSION? The D.E admission is released together with that of the UTME candidates. Don't expect any admission soon enough. It may be out in November/December. In 2017, first batch was released on 7th December 2017; in 2018, it was released on 1st January 2019. © Adams Abubakar |
