Are you looking for the Post UTME forms for the 2026/2027 academic session? This page provides an updated list of Nigerian universities and other tertiary institutions that have announced their Post-UTME, Direct Entry (DE), or admission screening exercises for the 2026/2027 academic session.
The 2026/2027 admission process is already underway, and many institutions have released their screening forms, registration dates, eligibility requirements and application instructions.
However, not every school on this page will still be accepting applications at the time you read this article. Some institutions have already closed registration and moved on to their screening exercises, while others may extend their deadlines or release new admission notices.
We will continue to update this page as more schools announce their 2026/2027 Post UTME forms and as existing application deadlines change.
Important: Always confirm the latest application status, deadline and registration procedure on the official website of your chosen institution before making payment.
What Is Post UTME?
Post UTME is the admission screening exercise conducted by Nigerian tertiary institutions after the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
After sitting for JAMB UTME, candidates may be required to participate in the screening exercise of the institution they selected.
Depending on the school, the screening may involve:
- Computer-based Post UTME examinations
- Online screening
- Physical screening
- Verification of O’Level results
- Verification of JAMB details
- Document screening
- Interviews or other assessment methods
The exact process varies from one institution to another.
For example, UNILAG conducted its 2026/2027 Post-UTME aptitude test online, while other institutions use different screening arrangements.

Schools With 2026/2027 Post UTME Updates
Below are some of the major institutions candidates are currently searching for.
University of Lagos (UNILAG)
UNILAG announced its 2026/2027 Post-UTME screening exercise for candidates who selected the university as their first choice and met the stated requirements.
The university initially scheduled online registration from June 15 to July 8, 2026. Candidates were also required to upload their O’Level results to JAMB CAPS and the university portal.
UNILAG has since conducted its 2026/2027 Post-UTME aptitude test and announced the release of the screening results.
What this means: Candidates who are searching for the UNILAG Post UTME form should not assume registration is still open simply because the form was released earlier in the admission cycle.
University of Ilorin (UNILORIN)
UNILORIN also released its 2026/2027 pre-admission screening information.
The university’s official instructions stated that candidates were required to complete their screening registration through the UNILORIN portal. Its admission process also takes the UTME/A-Level score, Post-UTME screening score and relevant O’Level grades into consideration.
The university later announced that the registration deadline had been extended to July 12, 2026, and subsequently scheduled the Post-UTME screening for August 13–15, 2026.
What this means: UNILORIN’s application stage has already passed, so candidates should now watch for screening results and subsequent admission updates.
University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN)
UNN has also announced its 2026/2027 admission screening exercise.
The university’s official website currently carries information relating to the 2026/2027 screening exercise and an extension of its PUTME application.
Candidates who applied should carefully follow the university’s instructions and monitor the UNN portal for their screening information.
What You Need Before Applying for Post UTME
Before starting your application, prepare the following information and documents where applicable:
- JAMB registration number
- JAMB result
- O’Level result
- WAEC, NECO, NABTEB or equivalent result details
- Passport photograph
- Valid email address
- Active phone number
- Date of birth
- State of origin information
- Local Government Area information
- Previous academic qualifications where applicable
- Direct Entry qualification if applying through DE
Some schools may request additional documents, so candidates should read the institution’s official screening instructions carefully.
Who Can Apply for Post UTME?
Eligibility is not the same for every institution.
A school may require candidates to:
- Have selected the institution as their first choice in JAMB.
- Meet the institution’s minimum UTME score.
- Have the required O’Level subjects and grades.
- Meet the subject combination for the intended course.
- Upload their O’Level result to JAMB CAPS.
- Meet any age or programme-specific requirements.
- Complete the Post-UTME registration before the deadline.
For example, UNILAG’s 2026/2027 notice required first-choice candidates with a minimum UTME score of 200 and specified O’Level requirements.
Other institutions may use different minimum scores and eligibility conditions.
How Much Is the 2026/2027 Post UTME Form?
There is no single Post UTME fee for all Nigerian schools.
Each institution determines its own application, screening or administrative charges.
For example, UNILAG’s official notice initially listed an application fee of ₦3,500 and a screening fee of ₦2,000, while its later examination instructions clarified the approved total fee as ₦5,500.
Because fees can change and schools have different charges, candidates should never rely on a general fee quoted for another university.
Always check the official admission notice before making payment.
How to Apply for Post UTME 2026/2027
Although the exact process differs by school, the general procedure is:
- Visit the official website of your chosen institution.
- Locate the Admissions or Post-UTME section.
- Read the eligibility requirements.
- Confirm that your JAMB details meet the requirements.
- Generate the application payment invoice.
- Pay the approved application fee through the official payment channel.
- Return to the school portal.
- Complete the application form.
- Upload the required documents.
- Review all information before submitting.
- Submit the application.
- Print or save your acknowledgement slip.
- Monitor the school portal for screening dates and other announcements.
Do not pay an individual who claims to be able to obtain admission or process your Post UTME application.
How to Know if Your School Has Released Its Post UTME Form
If your preferred school is not currently listed as accepting applications, don’t automatically conclude that the institution will not conduct Post UTME.
Instead:
- Visit the school’s official website.
- Check its official admission portal.
- Look for a 2026/2027 admission announcement.
- Check the school’s verified social media channels where applicable.
- Confirm information before paying any application fee.
This is particularly important because admission information can change quickly.
For instance, UNILAG has specifically warned prospective candidates to rely on its official communication channels for 2026/2027 admission information and to disregard unofficial claims.
Beware of Fake Post UTME Forms and Admission Scams
Candidates should be extremely careful when searching for Post UTME forms online.
Scammers may create websites that look similar to official school portals and ask candidates to make payments.
Before paying for any Post UTME form:
- Check the school’s official website.
- Confirm the correct application portal.
- Make sure the payment page belongs to the institution or its authorised payment provider.
- Do not send money to a personal bank account.
- Do not share your JAMB password or OTP.
- Avoid WhatsApp or Facebook accounts claiming to guarantee admission.
- Do not pay anyone who promises to “upgrade” your JAMB score.
- Keep your payment receipt and application details.
UNILAG, for example, has warned candidates against unauthorised persons and organisations claiming to facilitate or administer its Post-UTME exercise.
What If My School Is Not on the List?
If your preferred institution is not listed, don’t panic.
Not all schools release their screening forms at the same time.
Some institutions may:
- Release their forms later.
- Announce screening after another admission stage.
- Conduct online screening instead of a traditional Post UTME examination.
- Extend their registration period.
- Release a separate Direct Entry application.
- Publish an admission screening notice without using the exact term “Post UTME.”
We will continue updating this page as more 2026/2027 admission screening notices become available.
Post UTME vs Direct Entry: What’s the Difference?
Post UTME is generally associated with candidates seeking admission through the UTME route.
Direct Entry (DE), on the other hand, is for eligible candidates seeking university admission with qualifications such as ND, HND, NCE, IJMB, JUPEB or other recognised qualifications, depending on the institution and programme.
Many universities combine both processes in one screening announcement, which is why you may see “Post UTME/DE Screening Form” on admission notices.
However, DE candidates should check the individual institution’s requirements because the eligibility conditions can differ from those for UTME candidates.
What Happens After Post UTME?
Completing Post UTME does not automatically mean you have been offered admission.
After the screening process, candidates should continue monitoring:
- The school’s admission portal
- JAMB CAPS
- JAMB admission status
- Post-UTME results
- Admission lists
- School announcements
If you receive an admission offer through JAMB CAPS, you may need to accept the admission and complete other required steps.
You should also keep your JAMB profile and O’Level information up to date.
Frequently Asked Questions About Post UTME Forms 2026/2027
Are Post UTME forms for 2026/2027 out?
Yes. Many Nigerian universities and other tertiary institutions have announced their 2026/2027 Post UTME, Direct Entry or admission screening exercises.
However, the application status differs from one institution to another. Some forms are still available at particular times, while other schools have already closed registration and commenced screening.
Which schools are currently selling Post UTME forms?
Several federal, state and private universities have released 2026/2027 screening forms. The list on this page includes institutions such as UNN, UNIJOS, UNIMAID, FUBK, BUK, NSUK, UNIOSUN, UNICAL, UNIZIK, LAUTECH, FUTMINNA, FUTA, FUNAAB and many others.
Candidates should check the latest status of their preferred school before applying.
Is Post UTME compulsory for every university?
No. The admission screening method differs between institutions.
Some schools conduct aptitude tests, while others may use online screening or document verification. Candidates should follow the specific instructions issued by their chosen institution.
Can I apply if I did not choose the school as my first choice?
This depends on the institution.
Some schools require candidates to have selected them as first choice before applying, while others may provide instructions for candidates who want to change their institution.
Always check the school’s current admission notice.
Can Direct Entry candidates apply for Post UTME?
Some institutions combine Post UTME and Direct Entry screening in the same application exercise.
If you are a DE candidate, look specifically for the institution’s Post UTME/DE screening requirements.
What happens if I miss the Post UTME deadline?
If you miss the deadline, check whether the institution has announced an extension.
Do not pay anyone who claims they can secretly reopen the portal for you.
If the portal has officially closed, wait for any official extension or further admission announcement from the institution.
How can I avoid fake Post UTME websites?
Only use the admission portal linked from your institution’s official website.
Never rely solely on a website, WhatsApp message or social-media post claiming that a form is available.
Does JAMB CAPS still matter after Post UTME?
Yes.
Post UTME is only part of the admission process. Candidates should continue checking JAMB CAPS and their school’s admission portal for updates.
Final Advice for 2026/2027 Candidates
The 2026/2027 Post UTME process is already well underway, but admission timelines are not the same for every institution.
If your school has released its form, apply before the deadline and follow the official instructions carefully.
If your school has not released its form, don’t rush to apply through an unofficial website simply because someone claims the form is available.
Most importantly, keep checking your school’s official portal, JAMB CAPS and this page for verified updates.
We will update this list whenever a new 2026/2027 Post UTME form is officially announced or an existing school’s application deadline/status changes.
