Application procedure
Applicants should apply through the official Federal Polytechnic Bauchi admission portal at portal.fptb.edu.ng
On the portal, applicants need to select Online Admission, enter their details, and generate a Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR). After payment, they must return to the portal to complete the form using the application number and phone number used earlier. Missing steps can cause delays, so it helps to double check entries.
The application fee is ₦6,500 and it is not refundable. This fee applies to all applicants except those applying for ND programmes. Payment can be made at any bank or online through Remita.
Important notice for applicants
Only candidates who selected Federal Polytechnic, Bauchi as their First Choice in JAMB will be considered. Anyone who did not choose the Polytechnic earlier must visit a JAMB office to make a change of institution before applying.
ND candidates are also expected to accept and print their JAMB admission letters within four weeks of admission. Failure to do this may lead to losing the offer, which many students forget and regret later.
Applicants are advised to read every instruction on the portal carefully before submitting their forms. Rushing the process often leads to small mistakes that become big problems later.
