The Merit Admission List for Ebonyi State University (EBSU), Abakaliki has been released for the 2025/2026 academic session. This list represents the first batch of candidates who have satisfied the cut-offs and screening requirements and have been allocated admission under merit. The announcement gives hope to many applicants and sets the stage for the next steps in registration, clearance, and full matriculation.
EBSU uploaded the first batch of merit candidates as of 27th August 2025.
✅ How to Confirm Whether You’ve Been Admitted
Follow these steps to verify your status:
- Access EBSU’s “Check Admission Status” Portal
Use the university’s admission portal and choose the session (2025/2026) to view your status. - Log into JAMB CAPS
- Sign in to your JAMB e-Facility account (using your registered email and password).
- Navigate to Check Admission Status.
- Click Access My CAPS → Admission Status to see whether EBSU has offered you admission.
- Cross-Check Both Portals
Because some schools first list names on their portal before or concurrently with JAMB CAPS, it’s prudent to check both.

🛤 What to Do If You Are Admitted
Once your name appears under “Admitted”:
- Accept the Admission Offer through JAMB CAPS
You must choose “Accept” rather than “Reject” to secure your slot. - Print Your Admission Letters
The JAMB admission letter is often required during clearance and verification. - Generate Invoice & Pay Acceptance Fee
EBSU’s admission procedures stipulate that newly admitted candidates generate an invoice through the university portal and pay acceptance fees. - Document Verification (Screening / Clearance)
You will submit original and photocopies of credentials (O’level results, birth certificate or affidavit, local government ID, etc.). - Proceed to Registration
After acceptance, fee payment, and verification, you’ll register your courses and begin academic activities — within the stipulated window provided by EBSU.
EBSU’s admission policy warns that admission does not automatically lead to registration unless you comply promptly, because slots may be limited, and delays can cost you your place.
⏳ What to Do If You Haven’t Been Admitted (Yet)
If your name is not on the merit list:
- Continue checking your JAMB CAPS status — sometimes colleges make adjustments in later batches.
- Monitor EBSU announcements for supplementary or catch-up lists.
- Make sure your contact information (email, phone) is active in case the institution needs to reach you.
- Prepare all your documents so you’re ready to act fast if you are later admitted.
⚠️ Important Considerations & Warnings
- Avoid paying through unauthorized channels — only payments made via the university’s approved invoicing portal are accepted.
- Be mindful of deadlines — failure to accept, pay, or clear documents on time often leads to forfeiture of admission.
- Remember: getting into the merit list is just the beginning. Following through is what secures you the seat and ensures you will register.
