This makes it crucial for candidates to complete these steps promptly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Critical Deadline: Monday, November 17, 2025 (Before Noon)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has set <strong>noon on Monday, November 17, 2025<\/strong>, as the deadline for the 2025 admission cycle. UNN warns that <strong>any candidate who fails to complete the required change of course before the deadline risks losing their admission<\/strong>, as their provisional recommendation cannot be finalized on CAPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why This Matters<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The change-of-course update ensures that the new programme aligns with JAMB records, allowing the university to complete the candidate\u2019s admission processing. Without it, CAPS cannot validate the offer \u2014 meaning the candidate cannot be officially admitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may also like to read:<a href=\"https:\/\/examkits.com\/blog\/unn-announces-opening-of-nelfund-student-loan-portal-for-2025-2026-session\/\">UNN Announces Opening of NELFUND Student Loan Portal for 2025\/2026 Session<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) has released an urgent announcement to all Unified Tertiary&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":1407,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3,600],"tags":[1507,2460,127,1529,4380],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.13 -
