FPTB First-Choice Requirement
Candidates should pay particular attention to the first-choice requirement.
To be considered for admission, candidates are required to have Federal Polytechnic Bauchi as their first-choice institution in JAMB.
If you selected another institution as your first choice during UTME registration, you can complete a change of institution through JAMB and select FPTB as your new first choice before proceeding with the application.
Do not assume that simply submitting the FPTB Post UTME form automatically changes your JAMB choice.
What Happens After FPTB Offers Admission?
Candidates who receive an admission offer should follow the instructions provided by both FPTB and JAMB to complete the admission process.
According to the admission notice, successful candidates are required to accept the admission offer and print their JAMB admission letter within four weeks.
Candidates should therefore monitor both their FPTB admission status and JAMB CAPS after the screening and admission process.
Failure to complete the required acceptance process within the stated period may result in the loss of the admission offer.
FPTB Post UTME Application Deadline
The application deadline is six weeks from the date the admission notice was published.
Candidates are advised to complete their applications early instead of waiting until the final days. This gives applicants enough time to resolve payment, portal or JAMB-related issues that may arise during registration.
