Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic (NUBAPOLY), Zaria has officially commenced its 2025/2026 JAMB admission exercise for National Diploma (ND) and National Certificate of Education (NCE) programmes. The institution is urging all applicants to follow JAMB guidelines, upload their O’level results early, and complete all requirements before the December 31, 2025 deadline.
A New Academic Cycle Begins
The management of NUBAPOLY announced that the long-awaited admission season is now open, signaling the start of registration and verification procedures for thousands of intending students.
The polytechnic confirmed the following:
- The 2025/2026 JAMB admission process for ND and NCE programmes has officially started.
- All admissions will strictly follow JAMB regulations and procedures.
- The closing date is December 31, 2025, as directed by JAMB.
The school advised all candidates to act early to secure a chance before the admission window closes.
Changing First Choice to NUBAPOLY — What Candidates Should Know
Prospective students who wish to make Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic their first choice can easily do so through the official JAMB platform.
- Candidates should initiate a Change of Institution request on the JAMB portal.
- Those who already selected NUBAPOLY but wish to switch to another course must process a Change of Programme.
These changes must be done early to ensure JAMB updates the candidate’s details before the admission process reaches the final stage.
O’level Result Upload: A Mandatory Step
NUBAPOLY emphasized that no admission will be processed for any candidate whose O’level results are not uploaded to the JAMB e-facility portal.
Here’s what applicants must do:
- Visit any accredited JAMB CBT centre.
- Request for immediate upload of their O’level results.
- Ensure the upload reflects on their e-facility dashboard.
Both JAMB and the institution depend on these results for admission clearance, making the upload an essential step.
Why the O’level Upload Matters
Without the O’level result on the JAMB portal:
- JAMB cannot process the candidate’s admission.
- NUBAPOLY cannot shortlist the candidate, even with a high JAMB score.
- The candidate’s name will not appear on the admission list.
Early upload prevents delays and ensures a smooth screening process.
Stay Updated: Checking Admission Status
Candidates are advised to check their JAMB admission status frequently via the e-facility portal.
Once admission is offered:
- The candidate must accept the offer on the portal.
- Failure to do so might result in missed admission opportunities.
Printing the JAMB Admission Letter
Only candidates who accept their admission can print the official JAMB admission letter, which is mandatory for registration at NUBAPOLY.
Students are advised to:
- Print multiple copies and keep them safe.
- Present the printed letter during physical registration at the polytechnic.
No candidate will proceed with school registration without this document.
Quick Checklist for NUBAPOLY Applicants
Before December 31, every prospective candidate should:
- Choose NUBAPOLY as first choice, or apply for Change of Institution.
- Select a suitable ND or NCE programme.
- Upload O’level results at a JAMB CBT centre.
- Check admission status regularly.
- Accept the admission on JAMB’s portal once offered.
