Aminu Dabo College of Health Sciences and Technology (AD-COHST) is a health sciences and technology training institution associated with Kano State, Nigeria. The college focuses on education in healthcare-related and technical disciplines, preparing students for careers that support public health, community healthcare, diagnostic services and health information management.

The college has an online application portal through which prospective students can create applicant accounts, enter their academic details and select their preferred study path, department and programme. The portal also provides access to student services, including course registration, fee payments and examination-related records. 

Prospective applicants should confirm the college’s current programme offerings, admission requirements, school fees and application deadlines before applying. This is particularly important because the available historical programme directory does not establish the current approval or admission status of every course previously associated with the institution.

AD-COHST should not be confused with Aminu Dabo College of Nursing Sciences, Kano, which has a separate website and admission portal. Candidates should use the portal belonging to the institution and programme they intend to study.
