Admission Numbers and Acceptance Fee

The Polytechnic has emphasized that payment of the Acceptance Fee cannot be completed without an Admission Number. Successful applicants are therefore advised to take note of their Admission Numbers, which will be published on the Polytechnic’s official platforms shortly after the announcement.

It is important for candidates to understand that the Admission Number is essential for the following purposes:

1. Verification of Admission: Ensures that the candidate is officially recognized as admitted.

2. Payment of Acceptance Fee: Required to process financial transactions for admission confirmation.

3. Registration and Matriculation: Used during the registration process to create a student profile and participate in academic activities.

Candidates are urged to wait patiently for the publication of their Admission Numbers and to avoid any unofficial sources claiming to provide these numbers, as they may be fraudulent.

Acceptance Fee Payment Guidelines

After obtaining the Admission Number, successful candidates are required to pay the Acceptance Fee to confirm their admission. The Polytechnic has provided clear instructions for completing this process:

1. Online Payment: Candidates should make payment using the official Polytechnic payment portal or authorized bank channels.

2. Proof of Payment: After completing the payment, candidates must print the payment receipt and keep it safe, as it will be required during registration and matriculation.

3. Deadline Compliance: All candidates must ensure that payment is made within the stipulated deadlines set by the Polytechnic. Failure to complete the payment on time may result in forfeiture of the admission opportunity.

It is strongly recommended that candidates avoid cash payments or third-party transactions outside the official channels to prevent loss of funds or admission disqualification.
