The Federal Polytechnic Mubi, Adamawa State, has opened applications for admission into its National Diploma (ND) full-time and Higher National Diploma (HND) programmes for the 2026/2027 academic session.
The Polytechnic’s live application portal confirms that online Post-UTME screening for the 2026/2027 academic session is currently ongoing. The portal provides a separate application route for ND candidates and a Start Application option for Diploma and HND applicants.
Candidates seeking ND admission are expected to complete the institution’s screening process, while eligible HND applicants can apply for available programmes through the online application system.
This guide provides the admission requirements, application procedures, available courses, fees, campus information and answers to practical questions applicants may have before applying.
Federal Polytechnic Mubi ND Post-UTME Requirements
Candidates seeking admission into the ND full-time programme should generally meet the following conditions:
- Score at least 100 in the 2026 UTME.
- Possess at least five relevant O’Level credit passes.
- Meet the required subjects and grades for the chosen programme.
- Obtain the required O’Level credits in not more than two sittings, where applicable.
- Satisfy the programme-specific requirements applicable to the selected course.
Current 2026 admission information identifies 100 as the minimum UTME score for Federal Polytechnic Mubi.
However, applicants should understand that meeting the minimum score does not guarantee admission. Admission also depends on the candidate’s credentials, programme requirements, available spaces and the institution’s admission process.
O’Level Requirements
Candidates should have the appropriate O’Level qualifications from recognised examination bodies such as:
- WAEC
- NECO
- NABTEB
- GCE
The exact subjects required depend on the programme.
Candidates should therefore check the requirements for their intended course before completing the application.

Can Candidates Who Did Not Choose Federal Polytechnic Mubi Apply?
Candidates who did not originally select Federal Polytechnic Mubi should process the appropriate JAMB Change of Institution and make the Polytechnic their first choice where required.
Current admission guidance for the 2026/2027 exercise states that candidates who did not initially choose the Polytechnic can change their institution through JAMB before proceeding with the admission process. Candidates should not rely on changing their choice only on the Polytechnic’s platform.
Their JAMB record should also reflect the correct institution.
What to do
1. Process a JAMB Change of Institution through the approved JAMB process.
2. Select Federal Polytechnic Mubi as the first choice.
3. Allow the change to reflect on the JAMB system.
4. Proceed with the Polytechnic’s screening application.
5. Confirm that the institution shown on the relevant JAMB admission record is correct.
Federal Polytechnic Mubi HND Admission Requirements
HND admission is designed for candidates who already possess a relevant National Diploma qualification.
Generally, applicants should have:
- A relevant ND qualification from a recognised institution.
- A minimum of Lower Credit, subject to the requirements of the programme.
- Relevant post-ND cognate experience where required.
- The applicable O’Level requirements for the intended HND programme.
Published admission information states that candidates with an ND Lower Credit generally require one year of relevant post-ND cognate experience, while ND Pass holders may be considered with two years of relevant post-qualification cognate experience.
Candidates should also ensure that their ND qualification is relevant to the HND programme they intend to study.
Can an ND Pass Holder Apply for HND?
Yes, where the Polytechnic’s requirements are satisfied. An ND Pass does not automatically disqualify a candidate from HND admission.
However, current admission guidance indicates that ND Pass holders may need at least two years of relevant post-qualification cognate work experience. Applicants should be prepared to provide evidence of the required experience where requested.

What Candidates Should Have Ready Before Applying
Applicants should prepare the documents and information that may be required during registration.
ND applicants
- JAMB registration number
- UTME details
- O’Level result(s)
- Passport photograph where required
- Personal information
- Programme information
- Payment details
HND applicants
In addition to the relevant personal information, applicants should have:
- ND certificate or statement of result
- ND transcript where required
- O’Level result(s)
- Evidence of relevant cognate work experience where applicable
- Passport photograph
- Other documents requested by the application portal
Candidates should not upload documents that the portal does not request.
O’Level Result Upload: What Candidates Need to Know
Candidates should ensure that their O’Level results are correctly uploaded to their JAMB profile. This is particularly important for ND candidates because the result is part of the admission verification process.
Candidates whose results are missing or incorrectly uploaded should visit a JAMB-accredited CBT centre to resolve the issue.
An applicant should not wait until after admission has been offered before checking whether the correct O’Level information is available on the JAMB system.
Federal Polytechnic Mubi Post-UTME Screening Fee
The current ND screening fee is ₦2,000.
Candidates should generate payment information from the official application portal and use the approved payment channel. They should avoid paying individuals who claim to be admission agents.
Federal Polytechnic Mubi HND Application Fee
Recent HND admission information lists the application fee as ₦5,000. However, applicants should confirm the amount generated on the official payment page before completing the transaction.
This is especially important because application fees and payment instructions can change.
Is There a Closing Date?
The Federal Polytechnic Mubi’s live application portal confirms that 2026/2027 ND Post-UTME screening is ongoing, but the portal page reviewed does not state a closing date. Candidates should therefore avoid waiting until the last minute.
For HND admission, secondary admission information has reported a closing date, but because the Polytechnic’s live portal should take precedence, applicants are advised to confirm the current deadline on the portal before relying on any published date.
Federal Polytechnic Mubi Admission Contact
The official application portal currently lists the following contact channels for complaints and support:
- Email: support@fpmubieportal.edu.ng
- Phone: +234 (0) 907 307 6318

Final Word
The opening of the 2026/2027 admission exercise gives prospective students an opportunity to begin their application for ND and HND programmes at Federal Polytechnic Mubi.
ND candidates should pay particular attention to their UTME details, O’Level results and programme-specific requirements, while HND applicants should confirm the relevance of their ND qualification and any required cognate work experience.
Most importantly, applicants should verify the information displayed on the live application portal before making payment, because programme availability, fees and deadlines can change during an admission exercise.
