UNILORIN Post UTME/Direct Entry Admission Form 2025/2026 Out

UNILORIN has opened its 2025 Post-UTME and Direct Entry screening for undergraduates. Application runs from 28 July to 24 August. Read on for who qualifies, how to apply, and what not to mess up.

So, UNILORIN has kicked off its screening process for the 2025/2026 academic session. If you’re aiming for a seat in one of Nigeria’s most competitive federal universities, now’s your window. And yes, there’s a deadline — 24 August 2025. Miss it and you’re out.

Let’s break it down the way you’d want your older cousin to explain it — no grammar, no lectures, just the meat.

First, a Warning

If you fill anything wrong, that’s on you. No excuses. No second chances. Wrong entries = disqualification. UNILORIN won’t clean up your mistakes.

How They’ll Score You

Admission is based on:

  • 50% UTME or Direct Entry score
  • 30% Post-UTME screening
  • 20% from five O’Level subjects (the relevant ones, not random picks)

It’s a tight blend, so each part counts.

Registration Timeline

  • Opens: Monday, 28 July 2025
  • Closes: Midnight, Sunday, 17 August 2025

Don’t play the deadline game. Too many people get locked out last minute.

What You Must Do Before Starting

How to Apply

  6. Pay the ₦2,000 registration fee via Remita (use your ATM card)

Special Note on Some Courses

If you’re going for any of these:

  • MBBS

  • Optometry & Vision Science
  • Computer Engineering

You must upload results from one sitting only. No combining results. Don’t say nobody warned you.

What About Direct Entry Candidates?

Same steps apply. Only extra bit: choose your highest qualification from the list during registration. Don’t skip it.

If you just switched from UTME to DE, make sure JAMB CAPS reflects that before you start your registration here.

Final Words? Don’t Lie

If your results don’t match what’s on JAMB CAPS or if you make stuff up, that’s automatic disqualification. Doesn’t matter if you’re already on the merit list. They’ll yank your admission.

UNILORIN Commences NELFUND loan Disbursement to Beneficiaries 2024

University of Ilorin, UNILORIN Commences NELFUND loan Disbursement to Beneficiaries 2024. This is to inform the University Community, especially students who applied for loans under the Federal NELFUND Scheme for the 2022/2023 academic session, that the University has received payment of the sum of

N52,897,890 (Fifty-Two Millon, Eight Hundred and Ninety-seven Thousand, Eight Hundred and Ninety Naira) only

from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) for disbursement to the successful applicants.

It should be noted that the beneficiaries had already paid their school fees for the 2022/2023 Academic Session before the University received payment from NELFUND. Hence, it should not be construed by students that subsequent disbursements would be made directly to them. Therefore, the loans cover the beneficiaries’ school fees.

In view of the above development, the Dean Student Affairs Unit is by this memo enjoined to collaborate with the University Bursar to ensure the prompt disbursement of the loans to the respective beneficiaries.

The Deputy Vice Chancellor (Academic), University of Ilorin, Prof. Olubunmi Abayomi Omotesho, has confirmed that new students of the University will resume for the 2024/2025 academic session in October, saying that the new students will be drawn from a merger of those earlier admitted for the 2023/2024 session and those that participated in the just concluded 2024/2025 Post-UTME exercise.

UNILORIN new students to resume in October, 2024

Prof. Omotesho, who made this announcement in an interview with UNILORIN Bulletin last Thursday (August 29, 2024), stated that the proposed October resumption date will first be reviewed by the Committee of Provosts and Deans, following the standard procedure, and then submitted to the Senate for approval. Once the Senate approves, he said, the official resumption date will be announced.

While speaking on the reason for merging two sets of applicants to make an academic session, Prof. Omotesho highlighted the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and the strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), both of which lasted for about a year, saying that the two occurrences caused the University to run one session behind schedule.

The Deputy Vice Chancellor explained that “the Administration had initially proposed merging two academic sessions to address the backlog, but the 13th Council at the time suggested running the sessions concurrently. However, logistical challenges have made it clear that running two sessions simultaneously was not feasible”.
