Medicine and Surgery Admission Closed at Adeleke University

The announcement is significant for thousands of Nigerian students who had earmarked Adeleke University as a destination for medical training.

Medicine and Surgery remains one of the most sought-after courses among Nigerian JAMB candidates each year, and the closure of admission into the programme at any institution is certain to redirect a large number of prospective applicants elsewhere.

The university's College of Medicine, which houses the MBBS programme, is listed on its website alongside other health-related departments under the Faculty of Basic Medical Sciences.

These include Nursing, Medical Laboratory Science, Physiology, Anatomy, Public Health, and Health Information Management.

Admission into these related programmes does not appear to be affected by the current notice.

Other Programmes Still Open for 2026/2027

Beyond the health sciences, Adeleke University continues to accept applications across a wide range of departments for the 2026/2027 session.

These span the College of Pharmacy, where students can pursue a Doctor of Pharmacy degree, as well as faculties covering Engineering, Sciences, Arts, Business and Social Sciences, and Law.

Prospective students seeking further information or wishing to apply for any of the open programmes can reach the university's admissions office.
