  • All admitted pre-degree students must register for and sit the 2020/2021 JAMB UTME with the appropriate subject combination and score at least the minimum approved UTME cut-off mark for Rivers State University.

How to Apply

  1. Visit the official Rivers State University portal at www.ust.edu.ng and click on the 2020/2021 Pre-degree Programme Application link.
  2. Pay the non-refundable application fee of ₦15,000 (Fifteen Thousand Naira) online.
  3. Complete the online application form accurately, making sure to include an active personal phone number.
  4. Keep your original SSCE/GCE certificates or result slips ready, as you will need them during clearance and registration.

Since all pre-degree students must also pass the UTME to transition into 100 level, we recommend practicing early with the Mentra JAMB CBT app, which is available on both Android and iOS.
