The University of Lagos has announced the commencement of its online registration for the Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (Post-UTME) screening exercise for the 2025/2026 academic session.
The screening, which applies to all undergraduate programmes, will run from Monday, 28 July to Wednesday, 20 August 2025.
Candidates who selected the University as their first-choice institution in the 2025 UTME and scored a minimum of 200 are eligible to apply. Additional requirements include five credit passes at a single sitting in relevant O-level subjects, including English Language and Mathematics.
Only candidates who upload their O-level results on or before 12 September 2025 will be considered. Those who will not have attained the age of 16 by 30 September 2025 are ineligible. The university also stated that applicants who do not participate in the online aptitude test will not be admitted.
Candidates must register using their personal and active email addresses, which will serve as the primary channel for communication throughout the process.
Former students previously withdrawn due to academic failure or prolonged absence may reapply, but only for programmes different from their earlier enrolment. However, students previously expelled from the institution remain ineligible for re-admission.
Applicants are required to pay an administrative and application fee totalling ₦5,500 – ₦2,000 for the application and ₦3,500 for administration. Payment is to be made via any commercial bank or online, following which candidates can access and complete the screening form on the University’s website.
Mock examinations are scheduled to hold online from 25 to 27 August 2025, ahead of the official Post-UTME test from 1 to 5 September 2025.
Inquiries or complaints regarding the process can be directed to the official email address [email protected] or through the phone numbers 09053006772 and 08141656802.
In a cautionary note, the University reiterated its zero-tolerance policy on drug abuse, warning that any admitted candidate who tests positive for drug use—whether before or after registration—will have their admission withdrawn.
The announcement was signed by Mrs V. Abosede Wickliffe, Registrar and Secretary to Council.
