Who Should Register?
You should register for UNILAG Post UTME if: you chose University of Lagos as your first or second choice institution on JAMB CAPS, and you scored at or above the minimum JAMB cutoff for your intended course. If UNILAG is your second choice, still register — second-choice candidates are screened and admitted if first-choice slots are filled.
If your JAMB score is below 200, you won’t be eligible for the UNILAG Post UTME for most programmes. Some departments set even higher minimum scores — Medicine is typically 280+ competitive, Law 250+, Engineering 230+. A score below the departmental cutoff disqualifies your application at that stage regardless of O’Level grades.
How to Register for UNILAG Post UTME 2026
Step 1: Go to admissions.unilag.edu.ng. If the site is loading slowly, try at off-peak hours — the portal gets heavy traffic during registration periods.
Step 2: Click on “Post UTME Registration” or “2026 Screening Registration.” You’ll need your JAMB registration number to create or log into your account.
Step 3: Fill in your personal and academic details accurately. Errors here can cause issues during physical verification at the screening centre.
Step 4: Pay the registration fee. UNILAG uses the Remita payment system — use only the link generated on the official portal. Don’t pay into any bank account or third-party platform, even if someone assures you it’s legitimate.
Step 5: Print your screening slip. This is your gate pass — don’t lose it. It shows your screening date, time, and venue.
UNILAG Post UTME Subjects
The UNILAG CBT test covers English Language plus two or three of the subjects you wrote in UTME, depending on your faculty. Science and Engineering candidates can expect questions in their science subjects. Arts and Social Science candidates will typically face English and their subject area. The questions are set at JAMB difficulty level or slightly higher — past questions from UNILAG Post UTME are useful preparation material.
UNILAG Post UTME Cut Off Mark
UNILAG doesn’t publish a single Post UTME cutoff — the threshold depends on how many candidates register and how they perform relative to available spaces in each department. Generally, scoring 50% and above in the Post UTME puts you in a competitive position for most courses when combined with a strong JAMB score. For Medicine and Law, you want to aim higher — competition is stiff.
How UNILAG Calculates Admission Merit
UNILAG combines your JAMB score and Post UTME score using an aggregate formula. The exact weighting varies by faculty, but typically JAMB score contributes around 60% and Post UTME contributes 40% of the final aggregate. Your O’Level grades are used as a filter (you either pass or fail the O’Level check) — they don’t add points to your aggregate. Candidates who clear the O’Level filter and rank highest on the aggregate list get offered admission.
What to Bring on Screening Day
Arrive at the venue early — UNILAG screening centres get very busy. Bring: your screening slip (printed), JAMB registration slip, original O’Level certificate or printout, a valid ID, and recent passport photographs. The verification process happens before you sit the test — missing any document can get you turned away.
After UNILAG Post UTME: What Happens Next
Results are typically published on the UNILAG admissions portal within 2–4 weeks of the screening. Check regularly. If your aggregate score meets the departmental cutoff, you’ll receive a provisional admission offer on JAMB CAPS. Accept it promptly — UNILAG has been known to reallocate unaccepted offers in subsequent batches. Once you accept on CAPS, proceed to UNILAG’s clearance and matriculation process on campus.
One More Thing
Don’t pay any agent or “admission helper” to secure your UNILAG Post UTME registration or influence your result. UNILAG’s screening is a merit-based process. The only thing that determines your admission is your aggregate score. Any agent claiming otherwise is scamming you.
