ZACAS Post UTME Result 2026/2027 – How to Check

Updated on 6 November 2026 · How we verify

Quick answer: ZACAS releases post-UTME/screening results on its own admission portal (zacas.com.ng), not on the JAMB website. Log in with your JAMB registration number to see your score; the school then computes an aggregate (typically UTME + screening + O’Level) to rank candidates for the admission list.

Click Post-UTME Result / Check Screening Result.

How ZACAS calculates your aggregate

Nigerian institutions use one of two common models. Many universities weight UTME 50% + post-UTME 50%; others use UTME 50% + O’Level 30% + screening 20%. For schools that no longer conduct a written test, the aggregate is UTME 50% + O’Level 50%, with A1 = 10 points down to C6 = 5 for the best five relevant subjects.

Component (50/50 model)	Worked example
UTME score ÷ 8	e.g. 240 ÷ 8 = 30
Post-UTME (out of 100) ÷ 2	e.g. 60 ÷ 2 = 30
Aggregate	30 + 30 = 60.0

What happens after the post-UTME result

ZACAS ranks candidates per course by aggregate and quota, then uploads offers to JAMB CAPS.
Check your CAPS admission status and the ZACAS admission list regularly.
Accept the offer on CAPS, print your admission letter and pay the acceptance fee before the deadline.

Frequently asked questions

Is the ZACAS post-UTME result for 2026/2027 out?

Results are released on the ZACAS portal usually within a few weeks of screening. Check the portal with your JAMB registration number; this page is updated when the school announces release.

Can I check my ZACAS post-UTME result on the JAMB portal?

No. JAMB does not host institutional screening results. Only your admission status (after the school processes it) appears on JAMB CAPS.

What is a good post-UTME score for ZACAS?

Above 60/100 is competitive for most courses; Medicine, Law, Pharmacy and Nursing typically need 70+ combined with a high UTME score.

I failed the ZACAS post-UTME. What can I do?

You cannot retake it for the same session, but you may be considered for a less competitive course, use the JAMB CAPS Marketplace, or change institution.

Does the post-UTME result mean I am admitted?

No. It is only one input. Admission is confirmed when your name appears on JAMB CAPS and you accept the offer.
