How To Apply For Direct Entry Nursing Into Any Nigeria University
To buy direct entry form, it is the sole responsibilities of Jamb to sell it or distribute it to those outlet where you can buy it. Therefore, you can buy direct entry PIN in the nearest Jamb office or any designated bank. You can get your self registered in only JAMB Accredited centers in all States of Federation. Don’t send money to anyone who claims he can buy DE form for you in the school.
Gone are those days when you can fill it yourself. When I obtained my own the first and the second times, I filled it online myself after obtaining the card. But now, the introduction of thump printing and scanning made it impossible for you to do it yourself.
So you will have to take it to an accredited cafe, just like you did for jamb. Pay them to fill it for you. All you need to do is to go there with all academic and personal information. Then choose the school of you choice and submit online. Thereafter, you would be requirement to submit your documents with the print out to any nearest Jamb office.
Some schools may require you to forward your previous academic transcript to them, while some won’t. Whatever the case may be, just get yourself updated with the school website. You can also check here for update.
I hope this help
