UNILAG Warns Against Fraudulent Admission Offers: Stay Informed and Safe

The University of Lagos (UNILAG) is urging prospective students and the public to be cautious of fraudulent claims regarding “discretionary admission opportunities.” These offers often circulate through unofficial channels, including social media, and are not endorsed by the university.

Admission Through Official Channels Only

UNILAG stresses that all admissions must follow the official guidelines set by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB). The university has made it clear that they do not authorize any third parties, including WhatsApp groups or Facebook pages, to facilitate the admission process.

Key Points to Remember:

• Official Process: All admissions are conducted transparently through JAMB.
• No Third-Party Involvement: UNILAG does not recognize any individual or group as an official admissions agent.
• Report Scams: If you encounter suspicious offers, please report them to the university.

Beware of Scams

UNILAG has disassociated itself from any offers that claim to have connections with admission officials. Such claims are not only false but also illegal. Anyone involved in these scams—whether giving or receiving bribes—could face legal consequences.

What to Do If You Encounter a Scam:

• Do Not Engage: Avoid any interactions with individuals offering fake admission services.
• Report Immediately: Contact the university’s communication team at [email protected] or [email protected] to report suspicious activity.

Stay Informed

For verified admission information and official updates, always refer to the  University of Lagos Official Website. This is your best resource for authentic news regarding admissions and other university matters.

Conclusion

Protect yourself from scams and ensure your admission journey is legitimate. By staying informed and relying on official channels, you can navigate the process with confidence.
