The College of Nursing, University of Benin Teaching Hospital, formerly School of Nursing, University of Benin Teaching Hospital, wishes to inform all intending applicants and the general public that admission into the College is now through the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examination.
All intending applicants should therefore endeavour to enrol in the ongoing JAMB registration exercise to be eligible to apply for the Post UTME examination that will come up later in the year.
We, therefore, wish that this information be given the widest awareness/publication.
