According to Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), screening for the 2020 admission processes will commence on September 7, 2020 for Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education.

The essence of the shift from August 21, 2020 to September 7, 2020 is to accommodate candidates of Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (SSCE).

This was disclosed to the general public after a meeting on Monday between Ishaq Oloyede, the Registrar, and Vice Chancellors, Rectors, and Provosts of tertiary institutions.

See as he said it: “Presently as you are aware, WAEC starts the Senior School Certificate Examination on Aug. 17, it will go on till Sept. 7. Similarly, on Sept. 2 or thereabout, NABTEB will commence its own examination that will go on till Oct. 15, and immediately after that, NECO starts from the 5th to Nov.18.

“Rather than making candidates run, particularly, when they will have to write their school certificate exam in different towns and rush to universities elsewhere for post-UTME, like somebody rushing from Sokoto to Ibadan for post-UTME, we believe as a custodian of the highest sector of the education system, we should avoid that.”

Oloyede added that institutions whose post-UTME screening was mandatory for candidates would have to spread such exercise in two phases.

“For those institutions who want to take post-UTME, that cannot be earlier than the 7th of September and it will be held twice – from 7th September to 4th of October, and then it will be held for the second time on the 18th of November to mop up those who are taking their school certificate examination,” he said.

This indicates that there is indeed hope for candidates, I mean those who are yet to obtain SSCE (O’level) certificate.

If you are yet to register for Post UTME; do it now as so many schools have started their registration already.
