Like we would always inform candidates, beating Nigerian Police Academy (POLAC) cut off mark for JAMB does not in any way guarantee you an automatic admission into the Nigerian Police Academy until a successful internal screening exercise (physical verification of original documents) is carried out on candidates before candidate is fully admitted into the institution.
Just like most Universities in Nigeria, Nigerian Police Academy (POLAC) automatically grants admission to candidates to study the course of their choice upon payment of the acceptance fee for provisional admission from JAMB as failure to do so means automatic forfeiture of the admission.
