Nigerian Defence Academy 77RC Screening Test Scheduled for June 14

The Nigerian Defence Academy has set Saturday, June 14, 2025 as the date for its 77th Regular Course screening examination.

Candidates who selected NDA as their first choice institution and meet minimum requirements can participate in the computer-based screening test.

Eligibility Requirements

Applicants must have scored minimum 180 marks in JAMB UTME. This cut-off mark exceeds standard university requirements, reflecting NDA's competitive admission standards.

Only candidates who receive email confirmation from NDA qualify to register for the screening test. Check your email regularly using the address provided during your NDA application.

Registration Process

The centre selection window runs from June 5-9, 2025. During this period, you must log into the NDA portal and choose your preferred screening location from available nationwide centres.

Critical warning: Selecting multiple centres results in automatic disqualification. Choose one centre carefully based on accessibility and travel convenience.

After centre selection, make payment through REMITA and complete your registration. Download and print your screening admission card, which you must present at the exam venue.

Required Documents on Exam Day

Bring these items to your screening centre:

• Printed acknowledgment form from your application
• Screening admission card
• JAMB examination slip
• Two postcard-sized photographs with specific details written on the reverse

The photographs should have your name, state of origin, and application number written clearly on the back.

Application Deadline Extension

NDA extended the application portal until midnight on June 4, 2025 specifically for candidates who selected NDA as their first JAMB choice but hadn't completed applications.

If you fall into this category and haven't applied, complete your application immediately to receive screening eligibility confirmation.

Understanding NDA Admission

The screening test represents one stage in NDA's multi-phase admission process. Success on the written exam advances you to subsequent selection stages including physical fitness assessments, medical examinations, and interviews.

NDA operates as a degree-awarding military institution. Graduates receive university degrees while simultaneously earning commissions as military officers in the Nigerian Armed Forces.

Preparation Strategy

The computer-based test typically covers subjects similar to JAMB - English Language, Mathematics, and your chosen science subjects or arts courses.

Practice with CBT formats to build speed and familiarity with computer-based testing. NDA screening often includes current affairs and general knowledge questions alongside academic content.

For exam preparation across all formats, Ulearngo provides practice tests and study materials.
