FUOYE Post UTME/DE Screening Form 2026/2027 | See Eligibility and How To Apply

FUOYE Post UTME/DE Screening Form 2026/2027:  As an experienced education consultant and admission officer, I understand the anxiety that comes with university admissions. Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE) is currently one of the most applied-to universities in Nigeria, which means the competition is high. This guide provides a detailed, step-by-step roadmap for the FUOYE 2026/2027 Post-UTME exercise based on official university protocols.

What is Post-UTME and Why is it Important?

Post-UTME (Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination) is the screening process conducted by FUOYE to evaluate candidates who met the JAMB cut-off mark.

At FUOYE, this is particularly critical because the university uses an online screening (document verification) system rather than a physical entrance exam. This means your admission depends entirely on the accuracy of the data you provide online and how your JAMB and O’level results compare to others.

Eligibility Requirements

To be eligible for the 2026/2027 screening, you must meet these criteria:

• Choice of Institution: FUOYE must be your First Choice. If they are your second choice, you must apply for a “Change of Institution” on the JAMB portal.

• JAMB Score: The general minimum cut-off is usually 160. However, competitive courses like Nursing, Pharmacy, and Law often require 220–260+.

• O’Level Results: You need at least five (5) credits in subjects relevant to your course, including English and Mathematics.

  • Note: For Medicine (MBBS), you must obtain these credits in one sitting.

• Age: Candidates must be at least 16 years old by the time of admission.

Post-UTME Screening Format

FUOYE typically conducts its screening strictly online. Candidates are not required to travel to the campus for a physical examination.

• The Process: You upload your results, and the university’s portal automatically calculates your aggregate score based on your JAMB and O’level grades.

Required Documents for Registration

Have the following ready before you log in:

• JAMB Result Slip (2026 Session).

• O’Level Result(s) (WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB).

• Scanned Passport Photograph (Red background is usually preferred).

• A valid Email Address and Phone Number.

• O’level Scratch Card details (for result verification).

Step-by-Step Registration Guide

1. Visit the Portal: Go to ecampus.fuoye.edu.ng/putme.

2. Create Profile: Click on “New Applicants” and enter your JAMB Registration Number.

3. Pay Screening Fee: Generate an invoice for the N2,000 screening fee. Payment is made online using your Debit Card.

4. Complete Bio-data: Fill in your personal details accurately.

5. Upload Results: Enter your O’level grades and upload the scanned copies. Ensure you select the correct number of sittings (1 or 2).

6. Submit & Print: Review your work, submit, and print your Registration Slip.

Important Dates & Deadlines

Official dates for the 2026/2027 session have not yet been released. However, based on previous years:

• Applications usually open: July or August.

• Deadline: Often 3–4 weeks after the portal opens.

• Admission List: Typically begins to drop from October/November.

How the Aggregate Score is Calculated

FUOYE uses a “Point-Based System” out of 100%.

• JAMB Score (60%): Your JAMB score is divided by 400 and multiplied by 60.

  • Example: If you score 280, your point is $(280 / 400) \times 60 = 42$ points

• O’Level Points (40%): Points are assigned to your five best relevant subjects:

  • A1 = 6 points

  • B2 = 5 points

  • B3 = 4 points

  • C4 = 3 points

  • C5 = 2 points

  • C6 = 1 point

• Sitting Bonus: One sitting usually gets a bonus of 10 points, while two sittings get 6 points.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Wrong Subject Combination: If you apply for Engineering but don’t have a credit in Physics, you will be disqualified.

• Uploading “Camera Pictures”: Use a proper scanner. Blurred documents lead to rejection.

• Failure to Upload on JAMB CAPS: If your O’level is not on the JAMB portal, FUOYE cannot offer you admission, even if you pass the screening.

• Wrong Phone Number: The school often sends important SMS updates. Do not use a “SIM” that you don’t have access to.

Admission Tips for Success

• Calculate Your Aggregate Early: Use the formula above to see if you actually stand a chance for your course. If your aggregate is low for Nursing (e.g., below 70%), consider a “Change of Course” to a less competitive one early.

• Double-Check JAMB CAPS: Ensure your “Admission Profile” on JAMB shows “O’level Uploaded.”

• Follow the News: FUOYE often extends deadlines, but don’t rely on it. Register within the first two weeks.
