Payment will be made online through the IAUE Enterprise Schools Portal using any of these payment options:

  • MasterCard
  • Verve

Candidates should keep the payment receipt because it will be checked during clearance.

First Batch Acceptance Deadline

The stated deadline for first batch candidates is Monday, 7 September 2026, described as four weeks from the publication date.

Candidates who fail to accept their admission on JAMB CAPS and pay the acceptance fee before the stated deadline will forfeit the admission offer.

JAMB CAPS Admission Confirmation Comes First

Newly admitted candidates should first confirm their admission through JAMB CAPS before proceeding with IAUE acceptance fee payment and clearance.

The process is:

  2. Accept the admission offer.
  3. Print the JAMB Admission Letter in colour.

A candidate who intends to decline the admission can use JAMB CAPS to reject the offer formally.

IAUE Bio-Data Update

After the acceptance fee stage, newly admitted candidates should update their personal information and other required details through the university portal.

The bio-data printout will form part of the documents required during faculty clearance, so the information entered should match the candidate’s admission records.
