ATBU Bauchi 2025/2026 Post-UTME Screening: Dates, Fees, and How to Apply

The air in Bauchi is buzzing again as Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (ATBU) officially kicks off its 2025/2026 admission screening exercise. For JAMB candidates who scored 160 and above, as well as Direct Entry applicants, this is the long-awaited green light.

Mark your calendars: the screening begins Friday, 22nd August 2025.

Even better? The entire process is online, which means no long queues, no unnecessary travel, and no standing in the scorching sun.


Step-by-Step: How ATBU Screening Works

The process is straightforward but requires careful attention. Here’s the breakdown every applicant needs to follow:

  1. Visit the  ATBU screening portal.
  2. Pay a non-refundable fee of N2,000 via REMITA.
  3. Fill in the screening form correctly.
  4. Upload all required documents neatly.
  5. Print your Acknowledgement Slip — this slip is your proof of submission and will be needed later.

Important Tip: Treat this exercise like an exam. Any error in your details can cause serious issues later in the admission process. Double-check before you hit submit.
