Ambrose Alli University (AAU), Ekpoma, has officially invited suitably qualified UTME and Direct Entry candidates to participate in its 2026/2027 admission screening exercise. The screening exercise is designed for candidates who selected AAU as their first-choice institution and wish to secure admission into any of the University's accredited undergraduate programmes.
As one of Nigeria's leading state universities, AAU continues to attract thousands of admission seekers yearly due to its diverse academic programmes, experienced faculty, affordable tuition structure, and commitment to quality education.
Important Information About the AAU Admission Screening
Unlike many universities that conduct a physical Post UTME examination, Ambrose Alli University will assess candidates primarily based on their UTME scores and submitted academic credentials. There will be no separate Post UTME aptitude test for the admission exercise.
Candidates are therefore advised to ensure that all information provided during registration is accurate and consistent with their JAMB records.
Eligibility Requirements for AU Admission
To be considered for admission, candidates must satisfy the following conditions:
UTME Candidates
- Must have selected Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma as first-choice institution.
- Must possess the required UTME score for their chosen course.
- Must meet the O'Level requirements relevant to their programme.
- Must complete the online screening process through the university portal.
Direct Entry Candidates
- Must possess approved Direct Entry qualifications.
- Must ensure that their A'Level or equivalent results are properly verified through JAMB.
- Must complete the online admission screening process.
O'Level and JAMB CAPS Upload Requirement
One of the most important requirements for admission consideration is the successful upload of O'Level and Direct Entry results on the JAMB Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS).
The University has emphasized that candidates whose results are not uploaded and verified on JAMB CAPS may not be considered for admission. Direct Entry candidates are equally required to ensure their qualifications are properly reflected on the JAMB platform.
