Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Bauchi has announced its Post UTME and Direct Entry screening for 2025/2026. Candidates with 160 and above in JAMB or Direct Entry are to register online from Friday, 22nd August 2025. Please read further for payment details, steps, and support contacts.
The air around Bauchi has started buzzing again. Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, known simply as ATBU, has flagged off its admission process for the coming academic year. For those who wrote JAMB and hit 160 or more, or those coming through Direct Entry, the gates are officially open.
When It Begins
Mark the date. The screening exercise starts on Friday, 22nd August 2025. It is fully online, meaning no need to travel or stand in a queue under the sun.
How The Screening Works
The method is not tricky, but it requires attention. Candidates are expected to pay a non-refundable fee of N2,000 through REMITA before they can proceed.
Here’s a simple breakdown:
- Visit the ATBU screening portal.
- Make payment of N2,000 via REMITA.
- Fill in the screening form as directed.
- Upload all required documents carefully.
- Print the acknowledgement slip, which serves as proof of submission.
That slip is small but important. It might feel like just another paper, but don’t throw it away.
A Word Of Caution
The school has stressed accuracy. Entries must be correct. A small mistake here could cause plenty of stress later. Think of it as writing an exam again, but this time the questions are your personal details.
Who To Call If Things Get Sticky
For candidates who run into problems, help is not far away. The ICT Directorate and Admissions Office are available, and two phone lines have been made public:
- 08039597262
- 07069554862
So whether it is a portal glitch or a forgotten password, there is someone to answer.
