The exercise will run fully online between 18 August and 9 October 2025. No physical queues, no paper hustle, just you, your computer or phone, and the school portal.

There are conditions, and they are not hidden.
- UTME candidates need a minimum of 180, though some courses require higher marks.
- Direct Entry applicants must pay the screening fee and complete the process online.
- O’level results must be uploaded on JAMB CAPS, or you cannot register.
Only those who selected UNIJOS as their first choice will be visible on the portal.

Closing thoughts
The portal closes on 9 October 2025. That looks far now, but time moves fast. Anyone serious about UNIJOS should not leave it till last minute, before network wahala or deadlines catch up.
This screening is not just a formality. It is the gate into the university’s halls, and only those who meet the marks and follow the steps will pass through. Better to start early, get it done, and breathe easy.
