Federal University of Health Sciences, Azare: Courses, Cut-off & Admission (2026/2027)
Updated: 25 August 2026 · By the SchoolNews Education Desk
Federal University of Health Sciences, Azare (FUHSA) is a Federal university located in Azare, Bauchi, established in 2021. It offers the 13 programmes listed below. The JAMB national minimum for the 2026/2027 session is 150 — the college's own entrance exam and departmental cut-offs may be higher, so confirm with the school.
⚠ FUHSA runs admissions ONLY through fuhsa.edu.ng and its official linked subdomains (fuhsa.admissions.cloud for screening, fuhsa.safsrms.com for students) — never through a "FUHSA agent" on WhatsApp/Facebook or any third-party site charging to "process" your form or "guarantee" admission or a scholarship. Always confirm any admission list or portal link is quoted on fuhsa.edu.ng before paying any fee, and report suspected impersonator pages/agents to info@fuhsa.edu.ng.

Entry Requirements
You need five (5) O'level credit passes (WAEC/NECO/NABTEB, not more than 2 sittings) including English Language and Mathematics, plus Physics/Chemistry/Biology for most health-science courses, relevant to your chosen programme. Sit JAMB UTME (minimum 150) and make FUHSA your first (or second) choice on CAPS, with a subject combination matching your course. Shortlisted candidates sit FUHSA's own post-UTME/screening CBT (English + course-related questions). Official course-specific screening cut-off marks are not published on fuhsa.edu.ng — figures circulating on third-party sites are unverified; confirm current requirements on the official website and JAMB CAPS before applying.
