Adamawa State University (ADSU) has released its first admission list for the 2026/2027 academic session and candidates can check whether an admission offer has been recorded through JAMB CAPS.
Candidates whose admission has been approved will need to respond to the offer and keep the required admission documents ready.
ADSU Admission Status Is Available on JAMB CAPS
Candidates can access their ADSU admission status through JAMB CAPS.
The checking process is as follows:
- Visit the JAMB eFacility portal.
- Log in with the JAMB username and password.
- Scroll to Check Admission Status and select it.
- Select Access my CAPS.
- Open Admission Status to see whether ADSU admission has been offered.
The response shown on CAPS reflects the current position of the candidate's application.
JAMB CAPS Admission Responses and Their Meanings
Candidates may see one of five responses after opening the Admission Status section.
Admission Offered
JAMB has approved the admission and the candidate can proceed to accept or reject the offer.
Admission in Progress
ADSU has reviewed the application and recommended the candidate for admission.
The recommendation is awaiting approval from the Head of Institution before JAMB completes its final review.
Recommended
ADSU has considered the candidate for admission, while JAMB is still reviewing the application to confirm that the required criteria have been met.
Not Admitted
The candidate has not been considered or selected for admission at that point.
This response may appear because the relevant admission list has not been released or because the application remains under review.
Pending
The application is still under review and no final decision has been recorded.
Offered Candidates Can Accept or Reject Admission
Candidates who have been offered admission are to accept or reject the offer through biometrics at an approved JAMB CBT Centre or by SMS.
For the SMS option, the candidate is to send ACCEPT or REJECT to 55019 or 66019 using the phone number registered with JAMB.
The main account should have up to N50 available because JAMB does not take the required amount from borrowed airtime or Xtra Credit.
After accepting the admission offer, the candidate can print the JAMB admission letter.
Phone Users May Need Desktop Mode
Some candidates using a phone may see only the CAPS welcome message, while the Admission Status option remains hidden.
Chrome is recommended for phone access. The candidate can open the browser options and select Request desktop site, after which the complete CAPS page should be displayed.
