The University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) has officially released the results of the recently conducted Post-UTME Screening Exercise for candidates seeking admission into the institution for the 2025/2026 academic session.

This announcement is important for all candidates who participated in the screening exercise as it provides them with the opportunity to confirm their performance and admission chances.

Why the Post-UTME Result Matters

The Post-UTME result is one of the key requirements used by UNN in admitting students into its various programmes. Alongside the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) score, O’Level results, and other screening criteria, the Post-UTME result determines whether a candidate meets the cut-off mark set for their chosen department.

For many aspirants, this stage is critical. Checking the result early allows them to know their admission prospects and prepare for the next steps, including acceptance, clearance, and resumption, if admitted.

Result Checking Fee

Candidates should note that the result can only be accessed after making a payment of ₦1,000 (One Thousand Naira only). This payment can be made at any of the designated banks, or more conveniently, through the Remita platform using an ATM card.

The fee serves as a processing charge for generating and accessing the screening results online.

What to Do After Checking Your Result

1. Compare with Departmental Cut-Off Marks
   After viewing your result, check it against the departmental cut-off marks once they are released. This will give you an idea of your chances of being admitted into your chosen course.

2. Upload O’Level Results on JAMB CAPS
   Candidates must ensure their O’Level results are uploaded on JAMB CAPS, as failure to do so may hinder their admission.

3. Monitor Your Admission Status on JAMB CAPS
   Admission offers will be processed and confirmed through the JAMB Central Admission Processing System (CAPS). Candidates should log in regularly to accept or reject admission offers once available.

4. Stay Updated on UNN Admission Lists
   The release of results is only the first step. The university will release admission lists in batches. Candidates are advised to follow official UNN channels, portals, and reliable educational news platforms for timely updates.

Advice to Candidates

The management of UNN has urged all candidates to remain calm and patient. The admission process is competitive, but fair. Scoring above the departmental cut-off increases one’s chances of gaining admission, but candidates who do not meet their chosen course cut-off should also explore other alternatives such as supplementary admission.

Parents and guardians are equally encouraged to guide their wards during this period to ensure they follow due processes and avoid falling victim to fraudsters who may claim to influence admission.

The release of the University of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN) Post-UTME results for the 2025/2026 academic session marks an important milestone in the admission journey of thousands of aspirants.

By following the simple result-checking procedure, candidates can now access their scores and take the next steps in securing admission into one of Nigeria’s most prestigious universities.
