Those who have been offered admission should proceed immediately to accept the offer and make the necessary payments as outlined by the University.
The management emphasizes that checking admission status via the university portal remains the only official and valid channel. Applicants are strongly warned to avoid third parties, agents, or unauthorized individuals who claim to have influence over the admission process.

The University has fixed Thursday, 31st October 2025, as the final deadline for the payment of the acceptance fee.
All newly admitted students are therefore expected to complete the payment and other initial registration formalities on or before the deadline.

-
Pay the necessary school fees and complete course registration to officially become a bonafide student of the University.
The University also stated that information on resumption dates, academic calendar, and orientation programmes will be communicated to all newly admitted students in due course through the University website and official social media handles.
University Management’s Message
In an official statement, the management of Osun State University congratulated all candidates who made it to the supplementary admission list.
“The release of this supplementary list marks another milestone in our effort to give every qualified candidate a fair chance at securing admission into our institution. We warmly welcome all newly admitted students and wish them a successful academic journey ahead,” the statement read.
The University reaffirmed its commitment to transparency, merit, and excellence in the admission process. It also encouraged all admitted students to maintain discipline, uphold the university’s core values, and take full advantage of the learning opportunities available at UNIOSUN.
Important Caution to Applicants
The University used the opportunity to remind the general public and prospective students that admission processes in UNIOSUN are completely merit-based and transparent.
The management warned candidates to beware of fraudulent individuals who promise to influence admissions in exchange for money.
“No staff or agent is authorized to collect money from candidates for admission purposes. The only recognized payment platform for all fees is the UNIOSUN Remita system accessible through our official website,” the management emphasized.
Candidates are encouraged to always verify any admission-related information through the official website: https://www.uniosun.edu.ng or the admission portal: https://admissions.uniosun.edu.ng.
What to Expect Next
Following the completion of the acceptance and clearance processes, the University will announce the matriculation ceremony date for all newly admitted students. The matriculation formally marks the beginning of a student’s academic journey at UNIOSUN and grants them full rights as students of the institution.
The management has assured that all necessary arrangements are being made to ensure a smooth transition for the incoming students. Academic activities for the 2025/2026 session are expected to begin soon after the clearance exercise.
