UNIZIK Post UTME Form 2026/2027 Is Out — Registration Closes June 21

Nnamdi Azikiwe University, also known as NAU or UNIZIK, has officially commenced its screening exercise for the 2026/2027 academic session on Wednesday May 27 and will end it on Sunday June 21.

That is the confirmed window — Wednesday 27th May 2026 to Sunday 21st June 2026. If you are reading this and you have not registered, the clock is running. UNIZIK does not extend this deadline. Candidates who miss the June 21 closing date are out of the 2026/2027 consideration regardless of their JAMB score check here if you want to register here.

What Is the Cut Off Mark for UNIZIK 2026?

UNIZIK has pegged its UTME cut-off mark for the 2026/2027 admission at 160. This is quite different from the 150 cut-off mark JAMB had set for universities.

Candidates who selected Nnamdi Azikiwe University or its affiliate institutions as their first choice and have a minimum of the required 160 pass mark are eligible to apply for its admission.

The 160 is the general minimum — the floor that gets you eligible to apply. The actual competitive thresholds for popular courses at UNIZIK go significantly higher:

The general JAMB cut-off mark for UNIZIK is 160. Competitive departments like Law, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Engineering, and Accountancy may have cut-off marks between 200 and 250.

So if you scored 160 and are targeting Law, Medicine, Nursing or Pharmacy at UNIZIK, understand that meeting the minimum only makes you eligible to register — the competitive aggregate within those departments will require a much stronger score plus a good Post UTME performance.

What Does the UNIZIK Screening Exercise Involve?

UNIZIK's screening for the 2026/2027 session assesses candidates based on their JAMB score, O'Level results, and in some cases additional screening components.

Any candidate whose transcript is not received before the stipulated deadline will not be considered for admission under any circumstances.
