Royal College of Nursing Sciences Ebonyi 2026/2027: ND/HND Nursing and Midwifery Admission Form, Requirements and How to Apply

Many people search for the Royal College of Nursing Sciences Ebonyi recruitment 2026 expecting a staff vacancy. In fact, the notice currently published by the college is an admission call: the Royal College of Nursing Sciences (RCONSE), Umuagara-Ezzangbo, Ebonyi State, is selling forms for its National Diploma (ND) and Higher National Diploma (HND) Nursing and Midwifery programmes for the 2026/2027 session. This guide summarises the requirements, the fee and how to apply.

RCONSE Admission 2026/2027 at a Glance

The notice I reviewed does not state a closing date or a screening date. Check the college portal or call the college for the latest timetable, because the admission cycle may already be advanced.

Entry Requirements

According to the official notice, candidates must:

1. Have written the UTME and obtained a registration number.
2. Score 150 and above in the UTME.
3. Hold five credits in English Language, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry and Physics, obtained in not more than two sittings in WAEC, GCE, NECO or NABTEB.

NABTEB results can only be combined with NABTEB results, not with WAEC or NECO.

A note on the UTME year: the published notice for the 2026/2027 session refers to the 2025 UTME, not the 2026 exam. That may be an oversight, since the wording matches earlier notices, or it may reflect the college’s cycle. Ask the college which UTME year it accepts before you pay.

How to Apply

1. Go to the college website and open the Apply page (royalcollegeofnursingezzangbo.edu.ng/apply), or buy a hard copy of the form from the Registrar’s office at Umuagara-Ezzangbo.
2. Generate a Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR) on the website for the application fee of ₦30,500.
3. Pay online or at any commercial bank using the RRR.
4. Return to the portal and complete your application.
5. Print your application slip and bring it to the screening test.

Other Programmes You May See Advertised

Some third-party posts claim the college also sells forms for Basic Midwifery, Post-Basic Midwifery and Post-Basic Nursing for 2026/2027. I could not find those programmes in the college’s own notice, so do not pay for them based on an unofficial post. Confirm any other programme directly with the college.

Scam Warning

The Registrar’s notice warns candidates to beware of fraudsters, and says the college has no agent or representative who charges any amount of money for admission. Pay the application fee only through the Remita invoice generated on the official portal. Do not send money to individuals who promise “sure admission” or a lower cut-off.
