This reopening provides another chance for candidates who, for one reason or another, missed the initial window for screening to complete their registration process and remain eligible for admission consideration into the University’s undergraduate programmes.

🗓️ Reopening Period

The online Post-UTME/DE screening portal will be accessible from Saturday, 25th October 2025 to Friday, 31st October 2025.
