The Nigerian Navy has officially opened admission into its College of Accounts and Finance in Owerrinta, Abia State, for the 2026/2027 academic session. This announcement was made public on Thursday, June 11, via the official X handle of the Nigerian Navy.
Programmes Offered
The institution is offering Higher National Diploma (HND) programmes in three distinct fields: Accountancy, Business Administration and Management, and Office Technology and Management. According to the admission details, the opportunity is primarily open to personnel of the Armed Forces of Nigeria and other security agencies, making the programme largely structured for serving members of the military and related security services.
Admission Requirements
Applicants must possess at least five credit passes in West African Examinations Council (WAEC), National Examinations Council (NECO), National Business and Technical Examinations Board (NABTEB), or equivalent examinations, including English Language and Mathematics, obtained in not more than two sittings. Candidates are also required to hold a National Diploma (ND) in a relevant field from an NBTE-accredited institution. Additionally, applicants must have at least a lower credit in their ND, along with one year of post-ND work experience in a related area. Those who hold an ND at pass level may still be considered, but they must have at least two years of relevant work experience after graduation.
Application Fee and Process
The college has set the application fee at ₦5,000. Interested candidates are expected to apply online through the institution's official website. Applicants must also ensure that their academic transcripts are forwarded to the college. The deadline for transcript submission is July 17, 2026.
Important Notes
The admission notice places strong emphasis on documentation and experience, especially for candidates whose ND results fall below the upper credit category. The Nigerian Navy College of Accounts and Finance is a military-run institution focused on training personnel in finance, administration, and office management skills needed within security and defence operations.
