Covenant University
Covenant University has provided an update on its undergraduate admission and post-UTME screening process for the 2026/2027 academic session. The university conducts the Covenant University Scholastic Aptitude Screening (CUSAS) as its post-UTME screening exercise for prospective undergraduate students seeking admission into its degree programmes.
For the 2026/2027 session, Covenant University requires Nigerian applicants to have sat for the current year’s JAMB examination and obtained the prescribed UTME cut-off mark. Applicants must also possess the required O’Level qualifications, including an acceptable WAEC, NECO or equivalent result. The university advises candidates to review the subject combinations and programme-specific requirements before applying.
The university’s admission information confirms that CUSAS is mandatory for applicants who want to be considered for undergraduate admission. After submitting an application, eligible candidates can book a screening date and attend the exercise either virtually or physically, depending on the available arrangements provided by the university.
However, the current Covenant University admission portal states that the screening form is not presently open for national UTME students. Candidates should therefore avoid relying on unofficial reports claiming that the 2026/2027 UTME screening form is currently available for purchase or submission.
Covenant University has also announced that new academic offerings are being introduced for the 2026/2027 session, including the commencement of its Colleges of Law and Medicine. Prospective applicants should check the university’s programme information carefully to confirm the courses available and the specific admission requirements attached to each programme.
Candidates interested in Covenant University’s 2026/2027 undergraduate admission should continue monitoring the official admissions portal for the opening of the screening form and further instructions. Applicants should also be cautious of individuals requesting payment into personal bank accounts, as the university states that admission and scholarship payments should not be made to individual accounts.
