Good news for aspiring University of Nigeria (UNN) students! The management of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, has officially extended the deadline for the 2025/2026 Post-UTME screening registration.
Originally scheduled to close on Friday, August 15, 2025, the registration portal will now remain open until midnight of Sunday, September 7, 2025.
This extension gives candidates extra time to complete their applications, update O’Level results, and ensure all documents are properly uploaded.
Who Can Apply?
To be eligible for the 2025/2026 UNN Post-UTME screening, you must:
- Have chosen UNN as your first choice in JAMB.
- Score 160 or above in the 2025 UTME.
Who Should Not Apply?
UNN has warned that certain candidates are not eligible for the screening. These include:
- Applicants under 16 years of age as of September 30, 2025.
- Candidates still waiting to write the Nov/Dec 2025 NECO or GCE exams.
- Applicants with name mismatches between their O’Level and JAMB records.
The university emphasized that all applicants must have their documents in order before applying, as corrections will not be allowed later.
