This is to inform the general public, especially all prospective students of Bayero University, Kano (BUK), that the management of the institution has officially extended the deadline for the ongoing 2025 Post-UTME online screening exercise for the 2025/2026 academic session.
The screening registration, which was earlier scheduled to close, will now remain open until Sunday, 7th September 2025.
✨
Why the Extension Was Granted
The decision to extend the registration period was made after careful consideration by the university management. The extension provides a final chance for candidates who are yet to complete their Post-UTME screening due to reasons such as:
Technical difficulties while accessing the online portal.
Incomplete documentation or errors in their initial registration.
Unforeseen delays that may have prevented them from meeting the earlier deadline.
The university understands that such challenges can occur and, in the spirit of fairness and inclusivity, has provided this additional window for affected candidates to finalize their registration.
📝
Important Information for Candidates
This is the last extension that will be granted for the Post-UTME screening exercise. Once the portal closes on 7th September 2025, no further opportunity will be provided.
Only candidates who selected BUK as their first choice in the 2025 UTME and who meet the required cut-off marks are eligible to participate in the screening.
All candidates are strongly advised to register early and not wait until the last minute to avoid issues such as network congestion or system overload.
Information provided during registration must be accurate and verifiable, as any discrepancies could affect a candidate’s eligibility for admission.
