Ahead of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) 2026/2027 Post-UTME Aptitude Test scheduled to run from Monday, July 27, 2026 to Friday, July 31, 2026, the university management has released strict examination rules and software setup instructions. Every candidate must read and follow these guidelines carefully to avoid disqualification.
Key Exam Rules & Remote Proctoring Guidelines
- Remotely Proctored Online Exam: The test is a competitive online examination monitored via live audio and video recording for verification and integrity checks.
- Appropriate Dress Code & Visibility: Dress decently so you can be clearly identified. Do not wear face masks, face caps (including fez caps), headphones, earbuds, earpieces, wristwatches, bracelets, or smart glasses. Both your face and ears must remain completely visible throughout the test.
- Laptop Requirement Only: You must use a laptop equipped with an in-built webcam and microphone. Mobile phones, tablets, external webcams, virtual cameras, and HDMI-connected displays are strictly prohibited.
- Operating System Requirement: The required Safe Examination Browser (SEB) supports only Windows 10 or later and macOS Ventura or later. Unsupported operating systems will not be able to launch the exam.
- Camera & Seating Rules: Keep your webcam unobstructed and remain seated within full camera view at all times.
- Quiet, Isolated & Well-Lit Room: No other person is allowed in your exam area. The room must be well-lit and completely quiet. You must not speak, read questions aloud, or communicate verbally during the test. Using a cybercafe or business centre is at your own risk.
- 30-Minute Exam Duration: The test lasts exactly thirty (30) minutes. Your timer starts immediately you click the "Start Examination" button and continues running even if you log out or lose connection. Once your time expires, the test submits automatically.
- Power & Internet Supply: You are solely responsible for providing a stable internet connection and uninterrupted electricity throughout your exam.
- Scheduled Login Only: Only log into the exam platform on your assigned date and scheduled time.
