"Enugu State's specialized medical university, SUMAS, has officially declared open its portal for the 2026/2027 Post-UTME screening exercise for medical and engineering aspirants."

SUMAS Set to Screen New Candidates for Medical and Applied Sciences

The State University of Medical and Applied Sciences (SUMAS), Igbo-Eno, Enugu State, has invited eligible candidates to apply for its Post-UTME screening exercise for the 2026/2027 academic session. As a specialized institution, SUMAS offers top-tier programs in medicine, nursing, radiography, medical laboratory sciences, and engineering.

This screening process is critical for selecting the next generation of healthcare professionals and applied scientists under a highly structured environment.

Admission and Credit Pass Requirements

Due to the specialized nature of the academic programs at SUMAS, eligibility requirements are exceptionally strict:

O'Level Credentials: Candidates must possess at least five (5) O'Level credit passes in WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB in one sitting for core medical sciences, which must include English, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.

First Choice Status: Candidates who chose SUMAS as their first choice or those willing to effect a change of institution to SUMAS on the JAMB portal are eligible to apply.

Registration and Application Steps

Candidates are required to log on to the SUMAS online application portal, complete the online application form, and pay the administrative screening fee. Accurate data entry during registration is mandatory, as errors in O'Level results and UTME subject combinations can lead to automatic disqualification.

Quick Action Checklist

Log in and carefully review the credit level pass requirements for medical sciences.
Ensure your O'Level results are fully uploaded on the SUMAS and JAMB portals.

How Nigerian University Aggregate Scores Are Calculated

Most Nigerian universities determine admission eligibility using a weighted aggregate formula combining your JAMB UTME score (scaled out of 50%), Post-UTME screening score (scaled out of 30%), and best 5 O-Level SSCE grades (scaled out of 20%). For instance, the University of Lagos (UNILAG) uses a strict 50:30:20 ratio. Other institutions such as Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) use a 50:50 ratio between JAMB and Post-UTME.

CampusAI automates these institutional formulas instantly while validating your mandatory subject combinations against official JAMB brochure rules to prevent candidate disqualification.
