About Federal University of Kashere (FUKASHERE)

Federal University of Kashere (FUKASHERE) was established in 2011 and is located in Akko Local Government Area, Gombe State, in North Eastern Nigeria. It is a public university accredited by the National Universities Commission (NUC), currently led by Vice-Chancellor Prof. Umaru A. Pate.

The university’s Jibril Aminu College of Medical Sciences — which runs MBBS, Dental Surgery, and Nursing Science — is the only college that requires candidates to sit a physical Post-UTME test in addition to the standard online screening that all other FUKASHERE applicants complete.

Who Needs to Attend the Physical Screening?

Not every FUKASHERE applicant needs to show up on campus. The physical test applies exclusively to candidates who:

  • Chose Federal University of Kashere as their first-choice institution in the 2026 UTME
  • Applied specifically for MBBS, Dental Surgery, or Nursing Science under the Jibril Aminu College of Medical Sciences
  • Have already completed the online Post-UTME/DE registration on the official portal

If you applied for any other programme, you only need to complete the online screening — there is no physical test or campus visit required for you.
