Missing even one deadline could cost you your chance at admission. In this guide, we&#8217;ll walk you through all the important dates, registration steps, and insider tips to help you navigate the screening process successfully.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Understanding Post-UTME Deadlines 2026\/2027<\/h2>\n\n<p>Post-UTME screening is the second stage of university admission in Nigeria, after you&#8217;ve written your JAMB UTME exam. However, unlike the unified JAMB exam, each university sets its own screening dates and requirements. Therefore, staying organised and marking these deadlines on your calendar is essential to avoid missing opportunities.<\/p>\n\n<p>Furthermore, universities strictly enforce closure dates\u2014there are rarely extensions. This means you need to act quickly once you receive notification of screening openings.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Major University Post-UTME Deadlines for 2026\/2027<\/h2>\n\n<p>Here are the key deadlines you need to know:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU):<\/strong> September 23, 2026<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ekiti State University (EKSU):<\/strong> September 30, 2026<\/li>\n<li><strong>Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO):<\/strong> Check <a href=\"https:\/\/portal.futo.edu.ng\/putme_login\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">portal.futo.edu.ng<\/a> for latest updates<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ekwueme Federal University (AE-FUNAI):<\/strong> September 25, 2026 (supplementary admission)<\/li>\n<li><strong>University of Ibadan:<\/strong> Closed (Registration was June 22\u2013July 19, 2026)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h2>How to Register for Post-UTME Screening<\/h2>\n\n<p>The registration process varies by institution, but here&#8217;s the general approach:<\/p>\n\n<h3>Step 1: Visit the University Portal<\/h3>\n<p>Each university maintains its own online admission portal. Search for &#8220;[University Name] Post-UTME portal&#8221; or check the institution&#8217;s official website.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Step 2: Log In with Your JAMB Registration Number<\/h3>\n<p>You&#8217;ll need your JAMB Reg Number and password to access your admission status and screening portal.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Step 3: Pay the Required Processing Fee<\/h3>\n<p>Most universities charge between N5,000\u2013N10,000 as a processing fee. For example, AE-FUNAI charges N5,000 for supplementary admission. Make sure you understand the payment method your chosen institution accepts.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Step 4: Complete Your Application<\/h3>\n<p>Fill out all required information, including your choice of course, as some universities allow course changes during Post-UTME registration.<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h2>Critical Requirements You Must Know<\/h2>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>JAMB Score Requirement:<\/strong> Most universities require a minimum JAMB score of 150\u2013180, depending on the programme<\/li>\n<li><strong>Merit-Based Admission:<\/strong> Admission is strictly merit-based. Do not pay anyone claiming they can &#8220;secure&#8221; your admission outside official channels<\/li>\n<li><strong>Original Documents:<\/strong> Have scanned copies of your O-level results, JAMB printout, and birth certificate ready<\/li>\n<li><strong>Course Matching:<\/strong> If applying to AE-FUNAI or similar institutions, ensure your course choice on JAMB CAPS matches your application<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2>Avoiding Admission Scams<\/h2>\n\n<p>Every year, fraudsters target admission-seeking students. Here&#8217;s how to stay safe:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Only use <strong>official university portals<\/strong>\u2014never third-party websites<\/li>\n<li>Admission officers never ask for money via personal accounts\u2014only through official university payment channels<\/li>\n<li>Verify deadlines directly from the university&#8217;s website or official social media pages<\/li>\n<li>Be wary of anyone promising guaranteed admission\u2014it doesn&#8217;t exist<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>For more information on staying safe during admissions, <a href=\"#\" class=\"internal-link-placeholder\" data-topic=\"JAMB admission scams to avoid\">JAMB admission scams to avoid<\/a> has detailed preventive steps.<\/p>\n\n<h2>What to Do If You Miss a Deadline<\/h2>\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve missed a Post-UTME deadline for your first choice, don&#8217;t panic. Many universities offer supplementary admissions rounds for candidates who scored 150+ in JAMB but weren&#8217;t offered places in the main screening. Keep checking your email and the university portal for announcements.<\/p>\n\n<p>Additionally, explore <a href=\"#\" class=\"internal-link-placeholder\" data-topic=\"Nigerian polytechnics with high cutoff marks\">Nigerian polytechnics with high cutoff marks<\/a> or consider universities with later deadlines if your JAMB score qualifies.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"faq-section\">\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions About Post-UTME Deadlines 2026\/2027<\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"faq-item\">\n<h3 class=\"faq-question\">What happens if I submit my Post-UTME form one day after the deadline?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"faq-answer\">Unfortunately, most universities automatically close their portals at the deadline. Late submissions are typically not accepted, and there are rarely extensions. Mark all deadlines in advance and aim to register at least 2\u20133 days before the closing date to avoid technical issues or internet problems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"faq-item\">\n<h3 class=\"faq-question\">Can I change my course choice after submitting my Post-UTME form?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"faq-answer\">This depends on the university&#8217;s policy. Some institutions allow course changes until the final deadline, while others lock your choice immediately after submission. Check your university&#8217;s Post-UTME guidelines before applying. You may also need to adjust your JAMB CAPS choice to match your Post-UTME course selection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"faq-item\">\n<h3 class=\"faq-question\">Is Post-UTME screening compulsory for all Nigerian universities?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"faq-answer\">No. Not all universities conduct Post-UTME screening. Some institutions, particularly newer ones, admit students based solely on JAMB scores. However, top-tier universities like OAU, EKSU, and FUTO require Post-UTME screening. Always check your target university&#8217;s admission requirements on the NUC website or the institution&#8217;s official portal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2>Final Tips for Success<\/h2>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Create a spreadsheet with all your target universities, their deadlines, and portal links<\/li>\n<li>Set phone reminders 1 week before each deadline<\/li>\n<li>Register early to avoid last-minute portal crashes<\/li>\n<li>Keep all your receipts and confirmation pages as proof of payment<\/li>\n<li>Monitor your registered email for screening results and interview invitations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><strong>Ready to take the next step?<\/strong> Head over to your university&#8217;s official portal right now and check if screening has opened.
