The University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) has invited all UTME and Direct Entry (DE) candidates who selected the university as their First Choice for the 2026/2027 academic session to register for its Post-UTME screening exercise. The registration window runs from 00:01 AM on Monday, 22nd June, 2026 to 11:59 PM on Sunday, 19th July, 2026.
UNILORIN Admission Aggregate Formula & Key Rules
- Aggregate Scoring Breakdown:
- UTME / A'Level Score: 50%
- Post-UTME Screening Score: 30%
- Five (5) Relevant O'Level Grades: 20%
- Single-Sitting Only Courses: O'Level results obtained at one (1) sitting ONLY are accepted for MB;BS (Medicine & Surgery), Pharmacy, Optometry & Vision Science, and Computer Engineering.
- Change of Course & Upgrade to DE: Any change of course or upgrade from UTME to Direct Entry must be completed on JAMB CAPS before registration closes, as UNILORIN downloads updates directly from JAMB CAPS until the portal closes.
- NIN & O'Level Checker Requirement: Before starting, ensure you have your National Identification Number (NIN), a valid O'Level Result Checker PIN, and your personal email address and phone number. Note that NIN and O'Level verification charges apply post-registration, and your NIN and O'Level exam number on the UNILORIN portal must match those on JAMB CAPS.
- Exemptions from Screening Test: International candidates (who applied outside Nigeria) and Candidates with Disabilities (blind, deaf, mute, autistic, amputees, Down syndrome, dyslexia, ADHD, albinism, cerebral palsy, etc.) are exempted from the Post-UTME test, though they must register online and will be screened upon admission.
