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.
⚠ Kano State College of Health Sciences and Technology (the historic School of Hygiene, est. 1932) is a real, government-owned college, but its admission search results are heavily targeted by scammers — ignore blog/Issuu posts telling you to "call Dr Rita" or pay a "consultancy" agent to process your form; the college does not admit through private agents, and the only legitimate fee is paid on the school's own portal (kascohsat.com.ng). Also beware the similarly named "Emirates College of Health Sciences & Technology" (ecohsat.edu.ng) — that is a DIFFERENT private school, not this one. Cross-check any "kascohsat" link against the school's verified channels before entering card details.

Entry Requirements
The college runs certificate, National Diploma (ND) and HND-level health programmes. For ND courses you need the relevant O'level credit passes (SSCE/NECO/NABTEB) for your chosen programme, plus a valid JAMB UTME result with KASCOHSAT selected as your first choice. All applicants also sit the college's own Computer-Based Test (CBT) screening. For the 2025/2026 session the school's own admission announcement stated a minimum UTME score of 120 for ND eligibility — treat this as a floor for that session, not a guaranteed cut-off, as departmental requirements can be higher. Certificate-level programmes (e.g. CHEW) are O'level based only. Confirm the exact subject combination and current cut-off for your specific programme with the school before paying anything.
KANCOHTECH JAMB Cut-off Mark (2026/2027)
The JAMB national minimum for the 2026/2027 session is 150. This is the lowest score to be considered; the college also runs its own entrance examination, and departments frequently set higher cut-offs, so always confirm the current mark for your course with the school.
How to Apply
Apply only through the college's own admission portal (reportedly kascohsat.com.ng/Students/Apply): register with a valid email and phone number, enter your O'level and (for ND) JAMB details, pay the application fee online using your own debit card, then log in to complete the form and print your CBT/screening slip. ND applicants must first register JAMB UTME and select KASCOHSAT as first choice. Verify the current portal link on the school's official channels or by calling the college directly before you pay anything.
Stay safe: the college does not admit through private agents or "consultants" — ignore anyone (including WhatsApp/phone numbers claiming to be "Dr" so-and-so) asking you to pay them to process your form; pay only through the official portal.
