If you’re aiming for admission into one of Nigeria’s most competitive federal universities — the University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) — this is your chance.

UNILORIN has officially launched its 2025/2026 post-UTME and Direct Entry screening, and the clock is ticking. The registration window runs from Monday, July 28, 2025, to Sunday, August 10, 2025 (midnight).

No extensions. No second chances. Miss the deadline, miss the opportunity.

First, a Serious Warning

This isn’t the time for trial and error. Any incorrect information submitted during registration will lead to disqualification. UNILORIN will not correct your mistakes or let you redo the form. Triple-check everything before hitting submit.

How UNILORIN Will Score You

Admission into UNILORIN is based on a weighted formula:

• 50% from your UTME or Direct Entry score
• 30% from the Post-UTME screening form
• 20% from your five core O’Level subjects

So yes, every part matters. This is not the time to slack.

Registration Timeline at a Glance

• Start Date: Monday, July 28, 2025
• Deadline: Sunday, August 10, 2025 (11:59 PM)

Pro tip: Don’t wait till the last day — last-minute issues could lock you out.

Before You Begin Registration

Make sure you have the following in place:

• A valid personal email address (not your parent’s or a café’s).
• Your own phone number.
• Your O’Level or A’Level results must already be uploaded to JAMB CAPS.
• If your result isn’t out yet, select ‘AR’ (Awaiting Result) on the form.
• Planning to change course? Do it only on the JAMB CAPS portal — changes on UNILORIN’s portal won’t be accepted.

Step-by-Step Guide to Apply

1. Visit the UNILORIN undergraduate portal
2. Click “Pre-admission Screening Registration”
3. Enter your JAMB registration number and surname
4. Click “Get Details”
5. Enter your O’Level or A’Level results — or select ‘AR’ if awaiting
6. Pay the ₦2,000 screening fee via Remita (ATM card recommended)

Don’t refresh your browser during payment. If you’re unsure the payment went through, wait a bit or check for a debit alert before retrying.

7. Return to the portal and click “Admission Login”
8. Enter your JAMB reg number and surname again
9. Complete the rest of your details carefully
10. Submit your form
11. Print your screening slip and verify that all information is accurate

If you notice any mistake, fix it or report immediately. Don’t ignore errors.

Special Rules for Certain Courses

If you’re applying for any of the following courses:

• MBBS (Medicine and Surgery)
• Pharmacy
• Optometry & Vision Science
• Computer Engineering

You must use results from one sitting only — no combined O’Level results allowed.

For Direct Entry (DE) Candidates

You’ll follow the same registration steps. Just one extra step:

Select your highest qualification during registration. Don’t skip it.

Also, if you just changed from UTME to DE, make sure JAMB CAPS reflects that switch before you proceed.

Final Warning: No Lies, No Games

If your screening info doesn’t match JAMB CAPS, or you submit false results, your admission will be cancelled even if you made the merit list.

UNILORIN doesn’t play around with forgery or misinformation. Don’t say you weren’t warned.
