He said the only difference in this year’s admission process is the policy that there should be no written post-UTME test.

According to him, the right of Senate or Academic Board of each institution on admissions of candidates is subject to the following conditions:

b. 60:40 (Science/Art) ratio for conventional universities
c. 80:20 (Science/Art) ratio for Read More
