JAMB Adopts New Admission Policy For Universities With High Number of Applicants

According to the Registrar of JAMB, Professor Dibu Ojerinde during the Combined Policy Meeting held last week, candidates of universities with surplus applicants for the Unified Matriculation Examinations (UTME) are reassigned to other universities with lower number of candidates than their capacities.
.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), during the Combined Policy Meeting, adopted this new policy for admission of UTME candidates into various universities in the country.
This policy he said will be beneficial to universities with lower number of candidates than their capacities, as this will ensure that these universities will have more candidates to admit.
After the 2015/2016 JAMB UTME registration officially closed, the Nigerian Scholars Team compiled the list of most sought after universities.
Out of the over 180 universities in Nigeria, University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) has the highest number of JAMB UTME applicants with over 85,945 candidates seeking admission into the institution. This is followed by the University of Benin (UNIBEN) with over 60,020 applicants, and Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka (UNIZIK) with over 58,410 UTME applicants.

The 4th, 5th, and 6th most popular higher institutions are the University of Nigeria, Nsukka – UNN(57,539 applicants), Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria – ABU(52,785 applicants), and the University of Lagos – UNILAG(49,059 applicants) respectively.
