SAZU Fourth Batch Admission List 2026/2027 Released: Check Names Before October 9 Screening

Sa’adu Zungur University (SAZU), Bauchi State, has released the fourth batch admission list for the 2026/2027 academic session. The official university notice says the list contains candidates provisionally admitted into undergraduate programmes and invites those candidates for physical screening.

The fourth-batch notice was listed on the university’s homepage on 11 September 2026 and is published on the official SAZU website. The list page displays 1,459 entries with candidate IDs, names and programmes. If you applied to SAZU, this is the time to check the official list carefully and begin preparing your documents.

What SAZU has announced

In its Registrar’s notice, the university confirmed the release of the fourth batch list of provisionally admitted undergraduate candidates for the 2026/2027 academic session. The notice does not describe the list as a final admission for every purpose; candidates still have to complete the university’s physical verification process and follow the JAMB admission steps.

How to check the SAZU fourth batch admission list

1. Open the official SAZU fourth-batch list page.
2. Scroll to the section titled “2026-2027 FOURTH LIST”.
3. Use the page’s search field to look for your name or candidate ID. Searching the ID is often safer when several candidates have similar names.
4. Confirm that the programme shown beside the record is the programme you expect.
5. Save a screenshot or print the result for your personal records, but rely on the official page for the live list because admission pages can be updated.

The page contains personal candidate information. Do not repost names, IDs or screenshots publicly, and do not send your login details to an agent. Use the official university page and your own application records to confirm your status.

Physical screening dates and venue

Shortlisted candidates are invited for physical screening from Monday, 28 September 2026. The exercise closes on Friday, 9 October 2026. SAZU says candidates should attend at the respective campus where their programme is domiciled. This means you should confirm your course and identify the correct campus before making travel plans.

The notice does not give a daily reporting time or a separate appointment timetable. Candidates should monitor the official SAZU website and their admission records for any later instruction about departmental locations, opening hours or changes. If you need clarification about a detail not contained in the notice, contact the university through a verified channel listed on its official website rather than relying on social-media posts.

Documents to take for screening

SAZU requires shortlisted candidates to bring the originals and photocopies of the following documents for verification:

• Computer printout of your SSCE result.
• JAMB result.
• Online screening form.
• A recent passport photograph.
• The scratch card needed for verification of your O’Level result.

Prepare the photocopies early and keep the originals in a secure folder. Check that your name, examination number, subjects and grades are readable on every document. If you are using a result from WAEC, NECO or NABTEB, take the official printout required for your record and do not alter any detail.

The university’s notice specifically says candidates should bring an online screening form. If you cannot immediately find the form, sign in through the same official application route you used and look for a download or print option. Do not pay an unofficial person to “release” a form that should be available through the university’s own process.

Upload your O’Level result on JAMB before screening

SAZU instructs candidates to upload their O’Level results on the JAMB portal at a JAMB-accredited centre before attending the physical screening. This is an important condition, not an optional extra. A candidate may appear on the university list and still face an admission-processing delay if the O’Level record is missing from JAMB.

Use a JAMB-accredited centre and check the details displayed after the upload. Confirm that the correct examination body, year, subjects and grades are attached to your profile. If your admission requirements depend on two sittings, ask the accredited centre to follow the approved process for recording both results where applicable.

Keep the upload confirmation or any transaction evidence issued by the centre. Avoid sending your JAMB password or payment information to anyone who claims to be able to upload the result remotely. If a correction is needed, resolve it through JAMB or the official channel before the screening date.

What to do after the physical screening

SAZU says candidates should check the JAMB portal two to three days after a successful screening to accept the admission offer and print the JAMB Admission Letter. This creates a clear sequence:

1. Check your name on the SAZU fourth batch list.
2. Prepare the required originals and photocopies.
3. Upload your O’Level result on JAMB through an accredited centre.
4. Attend physical screening at the campus where your programme is domiciled.
5. After successful screening, check JAMB again two to three days later.
6. Accept the admission on JAMB CAPS if the offer is displayed.
7. Print the JAMB Admission Letter and keep it with your other admission documents.

The university also states that only candidates who have accepted their admission on JAMB will be able to access the SAZU admission on the university portal. Candidates should therefore treat university-list checking and JAMB acceptance as connected steps, not as separate alternatives.

Important difference between the SAZU list and JAMB CAPS

The SAZU page is the university’s published fourth-batch list, while JAMB CAPS is the central platform used for the formal admission offer and acceptance process. The two records may not update at exactly the same time. If your name appears on the SAZU list but the offer is not yet visible on JAMB, keep checking through the official platforms and do not accept a third party’s claim that your admission has been cancelled.

Likewise, a message on JAMB CAPS should be handled through JAMB’s official portal. Do not pay anyone to “upgrade” an admission status, move your name into a batch or guarantee a particular course. Admission status is personal and should be verified by the candidate.

Safety checklist for fourth-batch candidates

• Use sazu.edu.ng for the fourth-batch list.
• Check the candidate ID and programme, not only a similar-looking name.
• Do not publish your full candidate ID or admission documents on social media.
• Upload O’Level results only through a JAMB-accredited centre.
• Make photocopies of every required document before travelling.
• Confirm the campus for your programme before the screening date.
• Attend within the 28 September–9 October window; no later closing date is stated in the notice.
• Check JAMB two to three days after successful screening and accept the offer if displayed.
• Keep receipts and confirmations for any official payment or service.
