Yes — you can still do **Direct Entry (DE) registration for Pharmacy at Akwa Ibom State University for the 2026/2027 academic session, even though the programme was only approved to start in 2025/2026.

Here’s why:

When a programme is approved to commence, it means the university is officially allowed to run it (accredited and valid).

Once a programme is running, universities usually open it up for both UTME and Direct Entry admissions — depending on space and policy.

Since Pharmacy has started in 2025/2026, you can register for Direct Entry for the 2026/2027 session as long as the university publishes a Direct Entry form for that session.


Important conditions:

1. You must meet the Direct Entry requirements for Pharmacy (e.g., appropriate A‑Level, IJMB, NCE, or OND results with relevant subjects).


2. You must register the Direct Entry form within the JAMB DE registration period (JAMB usually announces timelines).


3. You must also meet Akwa Ibom State University’s internal cut‑offs and screening standards when the DE form is out.
