The management of the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH) College of Nursing Sciences, Zaria, has officially released the operational guidelines. Consequently, they have published the exam scheduling batches for the 2026/2027 undergraduate screening exercise.
Unlike programs that run purely document-based evaluations, ABUTH incorporates a physical Computer-Based Test (CBT) entrance exam. This evaluation helps the board shortlist candidates for the highly competitive nursing tracks. Therefore, all applicants who completed their registration forms on the electronic database must log in to track their cards.
Statutory Criteria for ABUTH Nursing Screening 2026
To gain access inside the computer testing halls, your screening profile must satisfy the following core institutional parameters:
The First Choice Clause: The screening exercise targets candidates who chose the ABUTH College of Nursing Sciences as their First-Choice institution during the 2026 UTME cycle.
General UTME Cut-Off Metric: The portal accepts candidates who participated in the 2026 UTME and scored a minimum of 140 and above. However, higher competitive aggregates dictate final class assignment.
O’Level Foundational Layout: Applicants need five (5) credit passes in relevant high school science blocks. These credits include English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, obtained via WAEC or NECO in a maximum of two (2) sittings.
Age Mandate: Candidates must be at least 16 years old to clear the validation panels.
CBT Exam Venue and Batch Details
The academic board administers the entrance tests within a controlled digital center. Candidates should note the following venue details for the upcoming ABUTH Nursing Screening 2026:
Official Screening Venue: Iya Abubakar Computer Centre, Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Main Campus, Samaru, Zaria.
CBT Registration Fee: Candidates must clear a flat processing fee of ₦2,000.00 through the Remita platform under the Federal Government Treasury Single Account (TSA) setup.
Required Assessment Documents: Candidates must physically arrive at the examination venue with their printed ABUTH Application Slip. Additionally, they must hold their Remita Payment Receipt and a valid national identification card.
Critical SSCE Upload Reminder: Candidates must immediately verify that their full O’Level grades are active on their personal JAMB CAPS dashboard. Because the university’s final selection script matches internal CBT performance directly against national profiles, empty records on JAMB CAPS will halt your admission tracking.
