The Minister of Education, Malam Adamu
Adamu has reiterated the ban on the Post
Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination,
otherwise known as Post-UTME, saying that the
ban is with immediate effect.
A statement issued and signed by Ben Goong,
the Deputy Director of Press and Public
Relations in the ministry, quoted the Minister of
Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, as saying that
the ban was with immediate effect and directed
all higher institutions to comply with the
directive.
The statement said: “The ban is with immediate
effect, and under no circumstance should any
institution violate the directive.
“The responsibility for admission into public
tertiary institutions lies solely with the Joint
Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and
under no circumstance whatsoever, should
anybody or institution take over that
responsibility by proxy.
“For the avoidance of doubt, any educational
institution after secondary education is regarded
as a tertiary institution.
“Therefore, all tertiary institutions, Polytechnics,
Colleges of Education, Universities or by
whatever name it is called after secondary
education, must be subjected to admission
through the JAMB.”
The statement said at the end of probationary
admission by JAMB, the candidates could be
screened for final admission.
Adamu was quoted as having said: “Those who
have already advertised for the conduct of the
Post-UTME under any guise should stop the
exercise immediately as any university caught
conducting Post-UTMNE will face appropriate
sanctions.
“If any tertiary Institution has already conducted
Post-UTME, such an exercise stands annulled and
money taken from such candidates must be
refunded immediately.”

Maybe 1 week
Uniben hv already stop theirs.
Schs that have already started selling forms have been ordered to stop and u think unilag after learning this will commence with form sale? Oh pls! Uniuyo hve been asked to refund money for instance so why all these confusion? Nobody is scared of anything but there will be NO post utme period!

is UNILAG also going for screening exercise and how wil it look lyk?
please how much is the diploma form?
Thanks a lot for all this post but how sure are you about all this info about unilag still conducing p-ume? I’m asking whether your talking based on experience or as a staff or you just have a reliable source … and what did you mean by it would be harder … cause it was never easy
The minister of education has said no more post utme. uniben has cancelled theirs what gives u the confidence that unilag post utme will hold is unilag above the law.
The fact is you have refused to see other schools that are currently doing theirs… You chose to see only those that cancelled or postponed theirs. Goodluck
PLS CAN I PURCHASE D FORM WEN IT OUT EVEN AS HAVE SCORED 188 TO STUDY ARCHITECTURE PLS SIR I NEED REPLY SOON SIR
Humm….May God Help Us.
pls aw tru z it dat students Shud go to unilag admin office for admission process

False alarm

And thanks for past question u said to me,is helping me seriously. I wish to see on the post utme date.
We need nt deceive ourselves here…cause there’s going to be a postume…..if u like believe if u like dnt….ur choice…shikena
Please update me when post-utme form is out
Welldone Timothy.
Should Direct entry applicants go ahead to submit their credentials or still hold on?
Go ahead
I doubt if unilag will proceed the sale of the post utme form. Its a prediction based on the situation of things around. We can say some schools are still proceeding with the selling of there post utme form but what we should note is that of all the top school in Nigeria. (Let take top 5) how many are still proceeding or how many are going against the federal government directory.. In which unilag is included, the federal government solemnly awaits a top school in nigeria to default and then rain its wrath that it might be a lesson to other schools, that was what uniben saw then they retreated, its not easy to go against a federal directory its not NUC(of course unilag knows it ways with NUC’s orders). Although some schools have conducted theirs and their list is out based on the judgment of the post utme they conducted, Fine! A refund might be difficult to be issued because the money used to facilitate the post utme in most schools is gotten from the registration fees, which federal government might consider (although might not be publicly declared) but for those who will out rightly stand to be greater than that order after its has been given again… Action will be taken as due #JustConcerned
But a form of exercise will be put to bed to screen students but trust me its not going to be a post utme or in any form of guise . And this screening will in no wise cost a dime .
PROPOSED JAMB MODEL FOR SCREENING OF RECOMMENDED CANDIDATES*
1.Screening of candidates shall be for those offered Provisional Admissions ONLY.
.
_2.No *written examination* to be conducted.
_.
3.Verification of Course Requirements (O levels or A levels)._
_.
4.Verification of valid JAMB results by checking:_
i.Online Result Slip ii.Printout
iii.Provisional Admission Letter
iv.Photo Album
v.Check list
_vi.Biometrics
_
*5.Institutions are free to source from other Course(s) to compensate for SHORTFALL in any of the criteria..
This new method uses a point system that is easy to understand, the whole process is divided into main points as follows;
1) Before a candidate can seat be considered for screening, he/she must have been given provisional admission by Jamb. The Jamb admission checker portal is going to be opened soon for this process, so praying is all you can do now.
2) THE POINT SYSTEM:
This is the most critical part of the process. Jamb’s provisional admission no longer makes much sense this year, your points tally will decide your faith. The points are evenly spread out between your O’level and Jamb results to provide a level playing field for all.
In the first case, any candidate who submits only one result which contains his/her relevant subjects already has 10points, the exam could be NECO, WAEC, GCE etc, but any candidate who has 2 sittings only gets 3 points. So this means that aspirants with only one result are at an advantage but only just.
The next point grades fall into the O’level grades. Each grades has it’s equivalent point, A=6 marks, B=4 marks, C=3 marks, so the better your grades the better your chances.
The next point is the UTME scores. Each score range has its equivalent point which can be summarized thus, 180-200=20-23 marks, 200-250=24-33 points, 251-300=34-43, 300-400=44-60 points. Each categories contains 5 Jamb results per point added, for example a candidate with 180-185 gets 20points, a candidate with 186-190 gets 21 points etc.
Points system for DE will be released soon.
3) It then comes down to the fact that fees will still be charged for screening, it depends on the school as well.
4) Catchment and ELDS will still be used!

OUTCOME OF JAMB AND UNIVERSITIES MEETING
Take time and read properly so that you
understand what’s happening:
.
.The Modalities for 2016/2017 Admission
processes Into Higher institutions as was
released by JAMB
.
1- The meeting was held at:
B.O Ukeje Auditorium, Nation Commission
for colleges of Education, Central Business
District Abuja…. on Tuesday 28th for
Federal institutions, Wed 29th for state
institutions and Thursday 30th June 2016
for Private institutions….
The meeting was for stakeholders and
educational bodies to work out the
modalities of screening candidates duly
recommended for admission.
.
Due to the National importance of the
meeting, it was chaired by the permanent
secretary to the ministry of Education, this
is to ensure that the honorable minister’s
directives on the scrapping of postume
and the modalities is STRICTLY ADHERED TO.
.
2- ADMISSION CRITERIA FOR ALL
INSTITUTIONS-
A- CONVENTIONAL INSTITUTIONS
Universities and colleges of Education
To Admit 60% Science and 40% Arts
.
B- SPECIALIZED INSTITUTIONS
Varsities of technology, Agriculture etc
To admit 100% sciences ( but 80%
sciences and 20% others….. For state
varsity and colleges of Education)
.
C- Polytechnic and colleges of Technology
To admit 70% Sciences and 30% Arts
.
3- UTME/DIRECT ENTRY ratio
To Admit 90% UTME
“. “. 10% DE
Where the 10% for DE is not utilized, UTME
candidates should be used in completing
the quota
.
4- ISSUES TO NOTE BY ALL Institutions….
The list of candidates that has crossed the
minimum cutoff of Jamb but were not
admitted into a particular institution
should be forwarded back to jamb, as this
candidates will be redistributed to other
institutions who need them for
consideration…..most preferably their 2nd
choice institution….
(This means that those who scored the
general cutoff say 180 or 200 and above
but couldn’t reach the departmental cutoff
and were not admitted will be forward to
other institution for admission
consideration, just like eligibility stuff last
year)
.
5- STUDY HERE PROPERLY,
In the Meeting, Jamb did some evaluations
on processes some universities has been
following in the former years as a case
study, they used this two varsities which
don’t normally write pume as a case study
but uses screening method: these are:
.
Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University and
its affiliates 2015/2016 mode of
admission, Jamb made remarked on the
life span of certificates (O-level) which the
school indicated as 5yrs only for you to be
admitted, and Jamb also made remarks on
how much this varsity collects from
aspirants
.
Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida’s who use
jamb grading systems like 180- 185 as 20
points, 186-190 as 21 points and So on…
Jamb faulted and made remarks on
1- why they should screen candidates
before recommendation and presentation
to jamb
2- The weighted course requirements and
grades put some students to disadvantage
3- fees charged for screening, HOW
MUCH??
.
In the meeting, Jamb made some sampled
printouts of some federal universities that
do conduct written exams…. Using Futo,
unilorin, uniabuja, and Unilag as a case
study
.
Using FUTO Mechanical Engineering
department as an example, they have the
capacity to admit a total number of 193
for that department…
they suppose to admit 87 on merit, 68 for
catchments( they have 5 catchments
states, so 68 divided by 5 = 13.5, so they
suppose to admit 14 for each catchment
states), 39 for EDLS (they have 23 EDLS so
39/23 = 1.6~ 2 for each EDLS)….
But they summary/outcome jamb gave for
futo was: 92:70:14 for merit: catchment:
ELDS
.
Unilorin admission for law which has a
capacity of 89 was also used and the
outcome was that they admitted a total of
70 instead of 89 using merit, catchments
and ElDS….
.
Uniabuja with a capacity of 444 for
Economics department admitted just 370
.
Unilag with a capacity of 280 for law
department had a summary/outcome of
270 instead of 280…
.
For private institution, they used about 5
institutions as case study, where
Covenant varsity, with 111 capacity for
Engineering end up admitting just 45 (I
guess due to lack of candidates), Salem
varsity Lokoja which have a capacity to
admit 20 for computer Engineering ended
up admitting just 8 (due to lack of
candidates) and so on for the remaining 3
varsities used as sample….
.
For State institutions: Imsu, Lautech,
Kaduna. State varsity and 2 others were
used, the outcome looked partly like
federal uni outcome for those state varsity
like imsu who have candidates every year
and some outcomes looked like that of
private varsity for some state universities
that lacks candidates every year…
.
6- After the whole evaluation, JAMB came
up with this As the MODALITIES TO BE
TAKEN THIS YEAR By All institutions:
PROPOSED JAMB MODEL FOR SCREENING OF
RECOMMENDED CANDIDATES*
1.Screening of candidates shall be for
those offered Provisional Admissions
ONLY.
.
_2.No *written examination* to be
conducted.
_.
3.Verification of Course Requirements (O
levels or A levels)._
_.
4.Verification of valid JAMB results by
checking:_
i.Online Result Slip ii.Printout
iii.Provisional Admission Letter
iv.Photo Album
v.Check list
_vi.Biometrics
_
*5.Institutions are free to source from
other Course(s) to compensate for
SHORTFALL in any of the criteria..
This new method uses a point system that
is easy to understand, the whole process
is divided into main points as follows;
1) Before a candidate can seat be
considered for screening, he/she must
have been given provisional admission by
Jamb. The Jamb admission checker portal
is going to be opened soon for this
process, so praying is all you can do now.
2) THE POINT SYSTEM:
This is the most critical part of the process.
Jamb’s provisional admission no longer
makes much sense this year, your points
tally will decide your faith. The points are
evenly spread out between your O’level
and Jamb results to provide a level playing
field for all.
In the first case, any candidate who
submits only one result which contains
his/her relevant subjects already has
10points, the exam could be NECO, WAEC,
GCE etc, but any candidate who has 2
sittings only gets 3 points. So this means
that aspirants with only one result are at
an advantage but only just.
The next point grades fall into the O’level
grades. Each grades has it’s equivalent
point, A=6 marks, B=4 marks, C=3 marks,
so the better your grades the better your
chances.
The next point is the UTME scores. Each
score range has its equivalent point which
can be summarized thus, 180-200=20-23
marks, 200-250=24-33 points,
251-300=34-43, 300-400=44-60 points.
Each categories contains 5 Jamb results
per point added, for example a candidate
with 180-185 gets 20points, a candidate
with 186-190 gets 21 points etc.
Points system for DE will be released soon.
3) It then comes down to the fact that fees
will still be charged for screening, it
depends on the school as well.
4) Catchment and ELDS will still be used!
