FULokoja Direct Entry Screening 2025: Dates, Requirements, and Full Guide
The Federal University Lokoja (FULokoja) has officially announced the screening schedule for all Direct Entry (DE) candidates for the 2025/2026 academic session. If you applied through JUPEB, IJMB, or a Diploma with at least an Upper Credit, this is the final step before securing your admission letter.

If you applied to these departments, you do not need to attend the screening exercise.
