⚠ National Orthopaedic Hospital Dala is a genuine federal school, but its admission process is heavily targeted by scammers. Beware of random social-media/events-listing posts urging you to call a personal mobile number to "buy the form," and beware of look-alike or outdated domains such as orthopaedicdala.org — these are NOT the official site and should not be used. Apply and pay only through nohkano.gov.ng or in person at the hospital, and pay only into the hospital's official bank account quoted on the current advert — never to an agent or personal account. No agent can guarantee admission; selection is strictly by entrance exam and school screening.

Sit JAMB UTME (minimum 150) — note this is a specialist federal health monotechnic and does not follow the standard UTME course-choice route, so confirm the current session's exact requirements directly with the hospital, as they are re-advertised each cycle.
