ABU Post UTME/DE Form for 2025/2026 Undergraduate Admission
ABU Zaria has opened its 2025 Post UTME and Direct Entry screening for first-choice candidates. If you scored 180 or above, or hold valid DE credentials, this is your window. Registration runs from 4 to 21 August.
Latest Update:
Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria has acknowledged technical difficulties affecting some candidates in the ongoing Post-UTME/Direct Entry (DE) registration exercise.
According to a Special Bulletin released on Monday, several categories of candidates have reported problems with the University’s registration portal. Those affected include applicants from Abuja/FCT and Nasarawa State, students who recently switched to ABU from other institutions, and candidates applying for programmes such as Sustainable Social Development and Sustainable Environmental Standard.
The University also noted cases where candidates who changed their programmes still find their old choices reflected on the portal. Other sundry technical hitches have also been recorded.
In a statement, ABU advised candidates to continue attempting registration while efforts are being made to fix the issues. However, students who remain unable to complete the process online have been directed to report to the Iya Abubakar Institute of Information and Communication Technology (IAIICT) Centre on the date of their scheduled Post-UTME test, where their challenges will be resolved.
The University further assured that the registration portal will remain open until the final date of the screening exercise, giving all applicants ample opportunity to complete their registration.
Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, has kicked off its Post UTME and Direct Entry screening for the 2025/2026 session. If you picked ABU as your first choice and you’ve got at least 180 in your UTME, or you’re applying through Direct Entry with the proper papers, this is for you.
Don’t overthink it. If you meet the cut, it’s time to register.
Who Can Apply
ABU wants only first-choice candidates. No second-choice loopholes here. You need:
- A UTME score of 180 or above, or
- A valid Direct Entry (DE) qualification
Anything less, and the portal won’t let you through.
Registration Is Online (Don’t Travel to Zaria)
When: Monday 4 August to Thursday 21 August 2025

It costs ₦2,000. You can pay online with your ATM card or print the slip and walk into any bank. No need to board a bus to Zaria just to pay.
Double-Check Your Course Combo
Before you hit submit, make sure your subject combination fits your course. If it doesn’t, fix it on the JAMB portal. ABU won’t fix it for you, and a wrong combo could knock you out before the race even starts.
