UNIBEN aspirant, this one is for you. You’re probably wondering when the form closes, how much it costs, and whether you’ll be ready for the screening. Good news the UNIBEN Post-UTME 2026 details are already out, and I’ve broken everything down so you don’t miss a step.
Welcome back guys. Let’s keep it simple and useful. Read to the end, because the deadline part is where people slip.
Things You Should Know
UNIBEN runs a Computer-Based Test (CBT) for its Post-UTME screening. So this is not just “fill form and wait” — you’ll actually sit for a test. That means preparation matters.
The school sets and can adjust these details, so use this guide and then confirm on the official UNIBEN portal before the deadline.

- Screening (CBT) holds: Monday, 27 July to Saturday, 1 August 2026
- Check your specific date, venue and time: from Friday, 17 July 2026 on the portal
Applications that aren’t completed (and paid for) before midnight on 3 July won’t be screened. So please, don’t wait.
