If you are seeking admission into Federal University Gusau, understanding the FUGUS Post UTME screening process is very important.

For the 2025/2026 academic session, FUGUS does not conduct a written Post UTME examination. Instead, the university uses an online screening system to assess candidates based on their academic records.

We have explained how the screening works, what you need to qualify, and the steps to complete your registration successfully.

FUGUS Post UTME Screening 2025/2026

Rather than a physical or written test, FUGUS conducts an admission screening exercise for the 2025/2026 session. To qualify for it, you must first meet the JAMB cut off mark.

The university screens candidates using:

  • JAMB UTME scores

  • O’Level results uploaded on JAMB CAPS

Your admission depends on how well you meet these requirements.

FUGUS Online Screening

The screening process is carried out online and is based on merit. Candidates are assessed through the following:

  • JAMB Score Evaluation
    Your UTME score plays a major role in your admission chances. Candidates who meet the required cut off mark are more likely to be considered.

  • O-Level Result Upload
    All applicants must upload their WAEC, NECO, NABTEB, or equivalent results on JAMB CAPS. Failure to upload results may lead to disqualification.

  • Departmental Assessment
    Some courses are more competitive than others. Departments combine UTME scores and O-Level grades when selecting candidates.
