What to Do If Your Name Is Not on UNIUYO Admission List
Keep checking regularly. UNIUYO releases admission in batches and subsequent batches are released within two to four weeks of the first. Check JAMB CAPS and the UNIUYO portal at least every two to three days.
Ensure your O’Level result is on JAMB CAPS. This is the most common reason candidates are passed over during admission processing. Visit a JAMB-accredited CBT centre immediately if your result is not yet uploaded.
Confirm your course on CAPS matches your Post-UTME application. A mismatch between what you chose on JAMB and what you selected during UNIUYO Post-UTME registration can prevent your name from appearing on the list. Contact the UNIUYO admissions office if you suspect a discrepancy.
Wait for the next batch. Some candidates are admitted through supplementary or additional lists depending on departmental quotas and available spaces. Be patient and keep checking.
