Will Unilag Scraps It’s Post Utme Cos Federal Government Say So? Read This:
Last updated on June 11th, 2016 at 02:57 pm
News broke out yesterday that the federal government of Nigeria has scrapped post utme in all schools and many have been asking me what unilag stand will be on this.
Federal government scraps post Utme in all school but schools are still at liberty to conduct any test if they so wish but it’s no longer compulsory, this is what i understand.
Unilag started post Utme in Nigeria and other school followed and this is one thing I know, Unilag will not scrap that post Utme oooh!
If they do or unilag is forced to follow this directives then it will become so difficult for students to gain admission becuause unilag will surely increase their jamb cut-off for various courses. Courses like medicine, engineering, pharmacy, law cut off will now be like 250-260 and above in order for students to compete effectively since the space are not enough to take all students.
I know Unilag will surely jonze this federal government thingy and still go ahead to conduct its post Utme. That’s Unilag for you.

According to what I heard on the news it was general decision taken by all tertiary institutions’ delegates. So they have to abide by it
How many times have they said all university cut off shouldn’t go above 180 before in the past and Unilag has never reduced its own cut off less than 200.
Not only Unilag sef even some other federal universities like UI, OAU, and ilorin.
Pls I change my course to mathematics and I did not have credit pass in further maths I score 225 in jamb do I have chance in admission
You need at least a credit pass in further maths
i never knew some people are so daft to the extent that when directives a given by the highest body, some thought that there interest is above others. If UNILAG start post utme, for what reason, go to United Kingdom the body that regulates exam is called UCAS, go to United States of America same apply as UCLA. Nija version is jamb. UNILAG continue to collect money from students and their parents to plant flowers, building houses, going on expensive holiday. And you are not happy post jamb is scraped. it a shame for you, let unilag go ahead and conduct the post utme. a lesson would be learned.
You think cancellation of post Utme will make admission into Unilag easier? You don’t even know anything about the system.

SIR CAN I TALK TO U ON PHONE.ITS CONCERNING DIPLOMA I’M DOING NOW IN UNILAG. I’M HAVING PROBLEMS
If for any reason unilag conducts a test, it will automatically imply post utme and every other university would likely do same. Test is the same thing as exam which will imply that the Fed government detective does not hold water. Every other university is on the watch of what unilag will do. Setting up cut off marks for depts will result in problems and court litigation as unilag violates the directive by so doing. The best way to admit students into various depts is to arrange them according to performance in descending order of marks till they have the required number of candidates and place the admission list with their JAMB scores. It is sincere and the best. Anything else will bring in Nigeria method- irregularities, malpractice, man-no-man, 180 will get admitted and 250 will not. Jibiti, rijima will be the case. Personal opinion niooo
#mike, I totally agree with you, this year will be interesting for undergraduates. This year alone should be based on your 180 and your waec result. Thank you.
But you know there are lot of discrepancies in jamb,and that this is just a political strategy,right?
Sure bro…u are very correct…according the the news article…they said all tertiary institutions are now @ liberty to conduct screening not test or any form of examination…and I think the suggestion and/or that u shared isn’t bad @ all…I wish they resort to that system and ensure that mediocrity is not put in place of merit…best of luck to us all
Yh… Just like what i thought… The best and credible solution now is to grade by both merits and catchment area using jamb scores.

WELL WELL, WHAT I KNOW FOR SURE IS THAT UNILAG WILL STILL DO THAT POST UME, THERE IS NO OTHER SENSIBLE WAY THEY CAN DO THE ADMISSION PROCESS OTHER THAN POST UME..SO LETS GO AND PREPARE FOR IT…MY OPINION OH…
jamb has made dea own money by selling jamb form,so universities also must do post Utme. i jst pray at d end evrytin wl b in our favour ijn…
Unilag will still conduct post ume so be prepared o
But bro Tim, don’t forget the last part of the news that says; they are working on redistribution of candidates oooo. Also delegates from each institutions were in the meeting, so if unilag had had anything to say about this, their Delegate would have do dat yesterday .. Unilag might conform to it, but nobody knows where they are heading to on this, keep my fingers crossed Sha…
When will Unilag post utme be on sale?
This June or July
Unilag is not autonomous and is definitely under the laws of the Federal republic of Nigeria which is above it. They will not go against 200 cut off benchmark nor will they continue with post utme. If they do, it will open them to lawsuits and I will be the first to sue.
The nation is above personal interest
Naso jaree…brother! They aren’t autonomous o…they must abide by the laws…coz their delegates were are @ the meeting yesterday when the decision was made known…but according to the news article…they ( Unilag ) are @ liberty to conduct screening using their preferred criteria…and that re-distribution is on going already…
GET READY FOR YOUR POST UME
When will the post graduate forms be on sale.
This June or July
The report says schools are at liberty/free to conduct their own exams.
That means schools can still decide to conduct their own kind of exam but it won’t be affiliated with Jamb.
Unilag must surely comply with the Federal Government’s directive. They have to revert back to the former system of basing cut off on candidates’ UTME scores only, using the minimum as 200, meaning that no one can get admitted into Unilag with less than 200. Of course, very competitive courses such as Engineering, Accountancy, Medicine, Pharmacy and such like will attract higher cut off up to 250 to 260, as it used to be before post UTME was introduced. It’s a joint decision that is binding on all institutions, including private institutions.
Please possible date for unilag foundation entrance exam.
Check out the date via this link https://unilagadmissionguide.com/2016/04/19/20162017-unilag-foundation-programme-application-form-is-out-full-registration-details-here/
I just don’t understand this!
I wonder why no one is seeing this as a political statement. How can you scrap an exam and still state that screening can still be conducted? we better not waste our time believing this BS, i am applying to study MLS and i have been studying and will not let this concern me because i know schools will now call it screening, they will simply change the name(that will even be a big sign of respect for the toothless dog we call FG)
hi Tim I apply for DE in unilag, is d form out for unilag & will they conduct entrance exam?
Unilag does not sell DE form. Go get jamb DE form. It’s currently on sale at jamb offices nationwide
This is not good at all! There should be postume. I don’t know how it will be possible to select from so many students with just JAMB, not to mention the way JAMB messed up this year with so many irregularities. They gave some persons free 40 marks and didn’t give me. We must go and prove ourselves with post ume
Sir if unilag diploma comes out how will I know sir

Unilag diploma form is currently on sale though
most pole wud be sad bout did news while others will pop something how r those who didn’t enter last yr gonna go bout did now
Unilag should combine jamb result with wassce result, there is no need conducting postutme
All i’d say is that UNILAG was set up by a parliament which means “they make their own decisions”..
Bro Tim how do I subscribe?
Follow this link https://unilagadmissionguide.com/2013/07/27/the-fastest-way-to-receive-unilag-admissions-infos-and-updates/
Thanks…but am not getting any mail
And my email is active
Follow the instruction in that post. You can follow up on Facebook and Twitter too
Sir,I not get further maths in my ssce,but I have A1 in maths.And I get 218 in my jamb haw sure to get admission in CIVIL ENGINEERING? Thanks

Lol i dont think Unilag will agree oo..
Do u know how much they make off selling post utme forms alone…
And besides it wasn’t stated if the policy would be implemented this year…
I can change course now or d school Will for me.any advice Sir
I can change my course now or d school should change for me.thanks
“The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, Dr. Folashade Yemi Esan, also reechoed Adamu’s position saying the decision to scrap Post-UTME was unanimously agreed by stakeholders at the meeting.”
UNANIMOUSLY AGREED
Please, I scored 221 in jamb and I want to study pharmacy…. Do I need to change my course?
@mr Tim,do unilag offer journalism as a course or its togeda wif masscom….nd again theatre arts is under creative arts ni???
Yeah together with mass comm and theatre art is under creative art
I score 225 in utme i did not have credit pass in further maths. I want to read mathematics. Do i have chance of admission
No chance! You need further maths…
So what about we that suffered jamb irregularities.i almost want to curse Dibu.they said we would rewrite and they stylishly brushed us under the carpet.God’ll judge them
How we supposed to prove we aint stupid.its just not fair.didn’t they mess people up lower than 180.wicked people
When will this guy’s stop playing with students mind and subjecting admission seekers to rigorous processes. Even if this directive holds it doesn’t change much cos applicants still has double bridges to cross to admission(after jamb you still face school)Nigerian universities wouldn’t just grant you admission simply cos you scored 200 or 250 on jamb.
Despite all the pains students are going through in the hands of jamb Ranging from computer errors resulting on poor centres, unnecessary cruelty on the side of vigilators, exam mal-practise such as upgrading of results yet Federal govt still trust them. I think this directive is going to be like the one b/w the nigerian Police force and the VIO on vehicle papers inspection which has resulted in both bodies doing the work with the drivers left to bear the pain. PLZ FORGET THIS GUYS AND CONTINUE PREPARING FOR YOUR POST-UTME. If the federal govt wants to help Nigerian student scrapping JAMB should be the first step. I think Post-UTME processes also need to be checked properly
Please Sir does Unilag accept Neco result?
Yes they do.
Well it is not everybody that can be admitted into unilag as there are other choice of institutions registered in jamb.JAMB places it that universities are at liberty to increase there own cutoff mark if they want to but non of them can go below the stipulated 180. If your first school of choice do not accept ur jamb score i am sure that your second choice will do, or better still other choiced institutions like polytechnics and colleges registered. I want you to note that it was also mentioned in the news that they (JAMB) are still on the redistributing process meaning that should in case your jamb cutoff mark do not meet up to your first school of choice it would definitely meet up to your second school of choice. So therefore there is possibility that federal universities might increase there own cutoff marks to like 220/230/240 even 250 and above especially those universities with higher percentage of applicants; so if your jamb cutoff mark do not meet up with there’s you still have the choice of switching to the state universities u registered in jamb. That is the plan so that more candidate can gain admission this year.

I choose unilag as a second choice and I have 214 in my Jamb Eaxm.i really love to study here in unilag,massage me by Email………
hw to get post utme registered
Unilag does not consider 2nd choice students
Omo una kini don tire me. I suggest the exam be scrapped and their jamb cut of mark should range from 220 to 300 but for specific important courses. As for education and art dep like creative etc. 200 should be acceptable. I see no reason why there should be an existence of post utme while jamb are pretty much helpful for admission case. And if unilag stil wants to carry on with their post utme they should set subject that goes in line with your dept not giving general subject to everyone.
please, is further maths a compulsory subject if I want to study computer science in unilag?
Yes
Federal government took decision and people are saying that Unilag that is Federal school would not take to the instruction. What a shame and what a country! Who is deceiving who?
Bt it is wrong for the media to announce something they arent sure of……giving wrong information……it is so wrong
Adamu Adamu and Dibu are the most Currupt set of people y scrap post jamb after all this jamb wahala dis year. only the children of the rich will enter unilag if post jamb is scraped
