Prince Abubakar Audu University, Anyigba, has officially opened its Post UTME and Direct Entry screening exercise for the 2025/2026 academic session. The screening process is for candidates seeking admission into the university’s undergraduate programmes through UTME or Direct Entry.

Candidates who meet the admission requirements are advised to complete their registration before the closing date. The university has also warned applicants to provide correct information and upload valid documents during registration to avoid disqualification.

For many candidates, this screening stage is the next big step after JAMB. Missing the requirements, using the wrong subject combination, or delaying registration could affect admission chances. Applicants are therefore encouraged to read all instructions carefully before proceeding.
