Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) 2025/2026 admission update: Candidates must accept their admission on JAMB CAPS and upload O’level results immediately to avoid forfeiture.

The management of Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, has issued an important update concerning the ongoing 2025/2026 admission exercise. Following the release of the first batch of admission lists, candidates are advised to take immediate action to secure and confirm their admission status through the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) Central Admission Processing System (CAPS).

Confirm on your JAMB CAPS profile that the upload is successful.
