If you’ve been waiting on Federal University of Technology, Babura (FUTB) to drop their Post UTME form, you can stop refreshing your screen now. The form is finally out for the 2025/2026 session, and the school wants serious candidates to get moving.
This one no be rumour. From engineering to physics, FUTB has opened its doors, but like always, not everyone will get in. So better read this with both eyes.
Who’s eligible?
Let’s not overcomplicate this. The requirements are pretty clear:
- UTME folks: You need a minimum of 150 to qualify.
- Direct Entry applicants: Bring at least Lower Credit in your National or Innovative Diploma.
- IJMB route? You need 4 points minimum in two subjects.
- And everybody must have five relevant O’Level credits, including Maths and English, in not more than two sittings.
No shortcut here. If your papers no complete, better hold off till next year.

FUTB didn’t just say “apply”. They broke it down by course so you know where you stand. See them below:
