UNILORIN 2015/2016 – 20 Things You Need To Know About The Post-UTME

After the just concluded JAMB 2015 CBT
exam since March 21st, 2015, questions
have re-surfaced about the UNILORIN’S
Post-UTME form, when it will be out, how
it will be, etc.
Here is a compilation of what I think is
necessary for you to know at the moment:
1) To qualify for UNILORIN putme exam,
you must have sat for any of the O’ Level
exam either with the result released or
awaiting and already meet up with the
school’s minimum cut-off mark for your
course in JAMB.
2) UNILORIN post utme exam is a CBT
exam, so be ready to face the computer
once more.
3) The question is going to be 50 in
number which will last for only 25
minutes/30 minutes.
4) the questions can be categorized into 5
parts which are: Eng Lang., mathematics,
Biology, General Question(with Geography
having higher priority) and Current Affairs.
5) Generally, UNILORIN doesn’t have
proportion in which the questions are
supplied to candidates which means a
candidate may have the afore-listed
subjects in the proportion/ratio 20:10;5;7:
8(i.e Eng Lang.= 20, Mathematics=10,
Biology=5, General Question=7, Current
Affairs=8) while another candidate will have
his/her combination in the ratio 15:4:8:17:6
and so on which means the proportion
varies from candidate to candidate but one
thing is certain, you will be provided with
50 questions in total.
6) UNILORIN does not test how far you
know about the department or faculty you
are coming in for because they believe
those ones have been settled in your O’
Level and you have also been tested in
JAMB so the post UTME is just a way to
screen people by the institution, so
therefore, don’t be surprised if you are a
Law student and you sitting next to an
Engineering student sitting for the same
exam.
7) No official date has been announced for
the sale of the post-UTME form by the
school, but hopefully one month or more
from the time of this post.
8) It would be posted on the dailies, the
school website or any of the Nigerian
student
9) No official price announced yet but it
would be something between N3000 and
N4000 because last year it was N3000
while it was N2000 in the previous year.
10) The form will be purchased online on
the school site using either the Verve r
Master Card. PLEASE NOTE THAT FORMS
WILL NOT BE SOLD OUTSIDE THE
SCHOOL SITE LIKE JAMB FORMS.
11) The Form will be out on sale for two
weeks.
12) As practice of all Nigerian Federal
Universities, UNILORIN also give priority to
candidate in her catchment area than
students outside its catchment area, but
you will have higher chances if you are
from Kwara State but with the highest
possibility if you are from Ilorin. So you
should not be surprised if you score 220 in
JAMB and 80% in putme with no
admission yet someone with 200 in JAMB
and 60% in putme gain admission.
13) UNILORIN catchment area are: The
Middle Belt States which are Kwara, Kogi,
Niger, Benue, Nasarawa, etc but the South
Western States. Are als considered in
some cases.
14) UNILORIN putme cut off mark is
generally 50% except for the highly
competitive course which are between
60% to 70%. So if you score anything less
than 50% in the putme exam, forget about
UNILORIN.
15) All that is required of you on the day of
the exam is your printout and a pen to sign
the attendance but remember to dress
decently because UNILORIN doesn’t
tolerate any form of indecent dressing.
16) Your result will be sent to you as text
message at 8pm or so be sure of the
phone number you will provide while
doing your registration although you can
as well check the result on the school
website.
17) a text message will be sent to you if
you have being offered admission or by
checking the school website.
18) Religion is not used as a basis for
admission into UNILORIN.
19) UNILORIN provide two centres for the
putme exam which are the lagos centre at
Oba Akran Avenue and the other centre at
the school premises in Ilorin. You are to
choose one of this centres for your exam.
20) UNILORIN remedial will also have to sit
for the putme because it increases their
chances of being offered their desired
courses although what actually qualify
them for admission is meeting up with the
minimum 50% pa$$ in their courses but
this does not guarantee that they would be
offered their desired courses.
