The Nigerian Defence Academy has opened its online application portal for admission into the 78 Regular Course, kicking off the process on Friday, November 28, 2025 with a deadline set for April 30, 2026.
The announcement was contained in a statement released on Wednesday by the Academy Registrar who confirmed that the opportunity is available to qualified male and female Nigerians across the country.
According to the statement, applicants must visit the official portal at www.ndaapplications.net where they are expected to purchase an access code and complete the registration steps provided on the site.
“Candidates should log on to the application portal, select ‘Purchase Access Code’ and fill in their details to pay for their application via REMITA after first obtaining their Order ID and REMITA Retrieval Reference (RRR) Code in the sum of N7,000,” the Academy said.
The institution stressed that candidates must stick strictly to the approved payment method to avoid invalid submissions.
“Please note that only payment against RRR Codes generated via the application portal would be accepted,” the statement warned.
The NDA encouraged prospective applicants to read all instructions carefully before proceeding with the process. “Visit the link for more details. Please read carefully and follow the instructions,” it added.
