Steps after gaining admission to NSUK
Once you confirm your offer, take the following steps without delay.
1. Accept or reject admission
Log in to JAMB CAPS and respond to your offer. Rejecting forfeits your place at NSUK. You will not receive another offer in that cycle.
2. Download and print your provisional admission letter
After accepting, download and print your provisional admission letter from the JAMB portal. You will need this for clearance.
3. Pay the stipulated acceptance fee
Pay the acceptance fee before the stated deadline. Failure to pay means your offer is automatically forfeited.
4. Complete online registration
Register online through the NSUK student portal. Completing this step generates your matriculation number, which you will use throughout your time at the university.
5. Present yourself for clearance and document verification
Visit Nasarawa State University, Keffi, in person for document clearance. Bring the following:
Document | Guides |
JAMB result slip | Original and photocopy |
O-level certificate | WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB result |
