UNIABUJA Issues Urgent Notice to Direct Entry Applicants
The University of Abuja (UNIABUJA) has released an urgent advisory for all 2025/2026 Direct Entry (DE) applicants. If you submitted your application via DE (e.g., via First Degree, NCE, A-Level), you must verify your certificate at your awarding institution immediately. Failure to do so will result in clearance issues on the university’s admissions portal.
What Action You Must Take
- Visit the institution where you obtained your qualification (First Degree, NCE, A-Level, etc.)
- Request official verification of your certificate
- Ensure the verified document is uploaded and cleared on the JAMB (NIPEDS) portal—your university portal clearance depends on this being completed
Why This Matters
Direct Entry applicants risk disqualification during admissions screening if certificates remain unverified. Fulfilling this requirement is mandatory to advance with your DE application process.
Quick Checklist
- Visit your awarding institution as soon as possible
- Request and confirm verification upload to JAMB/NIPEDS portal
- Revisit the UNIABUJA portal after verification to confirm clearance
Bottom Line: If you applied via Direct Entry to UNIABUJA for 2025/2026, prioritize certificate verification now to avoid unnecessary admission setbacks.
