The Nigeria Police Service Commission (PSC) has officially announced the release of the 2025 recruitment examination results for entry-level constables and other cadre. Candidates who sat the computer‑based test (CBT) and physical screening between late February and mid‑March 2025 can now check their application portals. The PSC portal allows applicants to view scores, status (e.g., passed CBT, called up for physical screening, or disqualified), and scheduled next steps including documentation verification and medical examination.
How to Check Your Result
Successful candidates must log in to the recruitment portal using their application ID and NIN. Once logged in, the result dashboard displays overall score, ranking, and progress status. The portal also offers a downloadable PDF of the result and confirmation of next-stage dates and venue details.
What the Result Means
A displayed “passed” status indicates eligibility to proceed to further screening phases. Candidates who didn’t pass CBT will see “failed” and could be included in waiting lists for possible re‑offers. The next stage typically includes physical fitness tests, background checks, medical screening, and document verification.
Timeline Ahead
The PSC has scheduled the commencement of physical screening and medical exams for successful candidates by mid‑July 2025. Training at the Nigeria Police Academy is expected to begin in September, with training cohorts starting shortly thereafter, based on historical timelines instagram.com+5psc.gov.ng+5facebook.com+5. The PSC usually follows a phased approach, with zonal command screenings preceding central verification steps.
Frequently Asked Questions
How will I know if I passed the Nigeria Police Exam 2025?
Once logged into your portal with your Application ID and NIN, your result section will clearly show either “Passed CBT” or “Failed CBT.” A “Passed CBT” status grants access to upcoming physical and medical assessments, while “Failed CBT” usually means disqualification or placement on a provisional waiting list.
What are the next steps after passing the CBT result?
Those who passed the CBT will receive instructions on venue, date, and time for the physical screening and medical examination. Ensure you bring all required documents—such as birth certificate, educational credentials, medical reports, and local government ID—to the designated centre for verification.
My result status is “waiting list.” What does that mean, and what should I do?
A “waiting list” status indicates that you narrowly missed the passing mark but may still be considered if some successful candidates are disqualified or withdraw. Stay checked in with the portal and official communication channels, as standby candidates are usually given a short notice to appear for further screening.
If I fail the 2025 exam, when can I apply again?
Candidates who do not pass or complete the recruitment process can reapply when PSC opens the next recruitment cycle. The PSC typically launches annual intake drives, so keep an eye on official announcements from the Nigeria Police Force or Police Service Commission websites to stay updated.
If your result shows “Passed CBT,” verify your email and SMS, prepare your documents for physical screening, and begin light fitness training to meet the required standards. Those with “Waiting List” should stay alert and be ready at short notice. Applicants who didn’t succeed can begin preparing for the next recruitment campaign, likely in early 2026.
Best wishes to all candidates, and for those who passed, welcome to the next stage of your police career! Let me know if you need help navigating document verification, physical preparation, or understanding screening criteria.
