As the Dean of the Faculty of Education at the Federal University Gashua, it is my pleasure to announce the opening of applications into the 2023 UTME Preparatory Program. This intensive 4-month program is designed to prepare candidates for the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination to gain admission into Nigerian universities. Over the years, the program has recorded a high success rate of over 90% in gaining admission for participants into their chosen courses of study.

Candidates will undergo rigorous training in subject areas, regular practice tests, personal study and learning skills coaching. The curriculum has been designed to align with the UTME syllabus and question patterns to ensure candidates achieve the highest scores possible.
