The exercise is conducted for candidates seeking graduate
admission into the university.
For reasons of the coronavirus pandemic, among others, the
university did not conduct the screening test in 2022. It only graded the
candidates based on the UTME scores and their grades in the senior school
certificate examinations (SSCE).
Meanwhile, eligible applicants for the screening exercise
are those who score 200 and above in the UTME and chose the university as their
first choice.
Schedule
According to a statement by the university‘s Registrar, Ọladẹjọ
Azeez, the 2023/2024 admission exercise screening is scheduled to commence on
Monday, 10 July, and 28 July.
The university, however, fixed the screening test to hold
between Monday, 31st July and Friday, 4th August, a statement by Mr Azeez said.
Eligible candidates
Mr Azeez said only candidates who chose the university as
their first choice in the UTME would be considered.
Such candidates, he said, must have also secured a minimum
of 200 points in the 2023 UTME and possess at least five credit passes,
including English Languages and Mathematics, in one sitting in their O/Level
results.
He said candidates younger than sixteen years old by 31st
October would not be considered for admission.
He added that candidates previously expelled by the
university are not eligible for admission.
“Only candidates who must have uploaded their O/Level
results on JAMB Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) on or before 13th
August, 2023 will be considered for admission,” he said. “Candidates who do not
participate in the Post-UTME Screening will not be considered for admission.”
“Former students of the university whose admissions were
withdrawn on the basis of poor academic performance or absence status could
re-apply on condition that the new admission shall be for a new
programme/course different from the former programme/course.”

The university said the screening fee is N2,000 and urged
applicants to be wary of fraudsters.
