Latest developments....I knew something was wrong with UNILAG!!! The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said that the national cut off point for screening of candidates for admission remained the minimum expectation that each candidate desirous of university admission should have. This is contained in a statement issued by the Public Relations Officer of the board, Dr Fabian Benjamin, made available to newsmen on Wednesday in Lagos. According to the statement, the attention of the board has been drawn to the challenge experienced by some candidates who could not access the University of Lagos site to register for the Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). The statement said that the board sincerely sympathised with their frustration. “We want to seize this opportunity to state that our attention has been drawn to the agitation by some parents and students who turned out for the registration for the post JAMB screening exercise for the candidates. “We sympathise with them but wish to state categorically that the national cut off point is just the minimum expectation that each candidate desirous of university admission should have. “However, universities are at liberty to go higher than 180, depending on their peculiarities and the performance of candidates who chose them. “For instance, if over 10,000 candidates who made Unilag their first choice scored 250 and above, it will be difficult for them to go lower than 250 when they are to admit only about 7000. “I wish to state that a time will come when some universities will go up to 300 as their cut off mark, depending on the performance,’’ the statement said. It explained that because of the development, the board decided that some of the candidates who chose such institutions but fall below their cut off marks should not miss out, hence the need to send them to other schools. The statement added that such a gesture should rather be applauded, instead of condemning the Dibu Ojerinde-led JAMB management. 1 Like |

JAMB NEW ADMISSION POLICY - THE
GOOD SIDE
Jul, 23
Like we promised, we have been following the
new jamb admission policy and have been trying
to ascertain the rationale and criteria used by
JAMB in determining the eligibility of candidates to
participate in their choice schools' post-UTME
this year.
Our findings have shown that the policy may not
really be as bad as it seems.
JAMB arrived at this new policy basically by
considering the number of candidates that applied
for the courses approved by NUC in the various
schools and the number of applicants per
institution.
For instance, statistics has it that, a whopping
607,330 candidates applied to study just in the
top ten universities.
This only implies that the carrying capacities of
these universities have been outweighed by the
number of applicants.
In other to give such candidates that may not be
absorbed by these universities opportunity of
gaining admission this year, there is need to re-
distribute these candidates to other universities
that have less than their carrying capacities
based on scores and catchment areas.
The import of this is that only the top scorers (say
about 20%) in a particular course may be
considered eligible to participate in the Post-
UTME of their choice institutions. Especially in
those institutions that have more candidates than
their carrying capacities could contain.
So for candidates who scored the required cut-off
mark and yet not eligible to participate in their
schools’ post-UTME you may need to consider
the following;
1.The probability that you are in the top 20% in
your chosen course.
2.If your choice in institution is under your state’s
catchment.
So it can be deduced that the main aim for this
new admission policy is to balance the admission
process. In order to create an almost balanced
platform for candidates which will give them a
better chance of gaining admission this year.
This is because if JAMB was to go with the status
quo, the admission will be partial and greatly tilted
to one side and will also disfavour many.
The affected candidates like we gathered will
soon be notified by JAMB on what to do next . 1 Like 1 Share |

[ A preliminary investigation carried out by Myschool, through a JAMB Staff, has revealed that the board will notify candidates of the new school/course they will be posted, to adopt the new policy of candidate distribution. According to the JAMB Staff, "Some of the candidates who scored more than 200 and are being rejected for some courses, happened based on the individual cut-off marks set by the institution for those particular courses. In summary too many students applied for those courses and the University can only admit a fraction of the candidates who applied. JAMB will therefore notify candidates of appropriate Universities/Course they can apply for." It is therefore our deduction that these rejected candidates will be sent to study the same courses in other Universities of lesser competition. This policy also ensures that best candidates in the country are admitted, even if it means posting them to other institutions. The new policy to evenly distribute candidates by JAMB has met heavy criticism based on the fact that forms were sold for candidates to Change their Course/Institution.[/quote] An extract from my school. 1 Like 1 Share |

RobinHez:Loooooooool. Baba Go fast. Anyways I just went through the whole thread and it just confirmed my suspicion that jamb is no fool and they really mean well. Students are wailing because admission is once a year and some states are not safe plus the standard of teaching is tilted to a small number of schools. I'm a newbie here (I'm a pro in visitor mode tho) but I see some really wise people. Let's just be patient, I knew something was up when unilorin delayed putme form, I'm going for biochemistry and I scored 245. Just putting my mind in a mental jacuzzi. fear solves nothing strategy does. 3 Likes |
