For the 2024/2025 academic session, only candidates who are at least sixteen years old will be considered eligible for admission.

  • This follows the directive from the Honourable Minister of Education, Prof. Tahir Mamman, SAN, OON.
  • The enforcement of this policy aims to curb the submission of false affidavits and doctored age adjustments.
