To prepare for the Rivers State University (RSU) Post-UTME for the 2026/2027 session, follow these precise steps:
1. Confirm Eligibility
First Choice: You must have chosen RSU as your First Choice on the JAMB portal.
Cut-off Mark: Ensure you scored at least 190 in JAMB (the standard minimum for all faculties).
O'Level: You must have at least 5 credits in your core subjects in no more than two sittings.
2. Registration Process (Expected July/August 2026)
Official Portal: Register only at rsu.edu.ng.
Payment: The fee is typically ₦2,000, payable via the university's e-campus portal.
Uploads: Ensure your O'Level results are uploaded to the JAMB CAPS portal; otherwise, RSU will not offer you admission even if you pass the exam.
3. Exam Format & Preparation
Mode: The screening is a Computer-Based Test (CBT) held at the ICT Centre on the main campus in Nkpolu-Oroworukwo, Port Harcourt.
Question Structure: Expect 40 questions in total to be completed in a short timeframe.
English Language: 20 Questions (Synonyms, Antonyms, Grammar).
Core Sciences/Social Sciences: 20 Questions (Divided among Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, or Government depending on your course).
Practice: Since the exam is fast-paced, practice using a computer mouse and keyboard.
4. Essential Documents for Exam Day
On your scheduled date (printed on your exam slip), you must bring:
Your RSU Post-UTME Exam Slip (reprinting usually starts in September).
Your JAMB Original Result Slip.
HB Pencil and eraser (for rough work).
Important Tip
RSU calculates your Final Aggregate by adding your JAMB score and your Post-UTME score and dividing by two.
