UNILAG ADMISSION; - Aspirants, Must Read!! by dani1luv: 11:22am On Jul 21, 2012
Many candidates are very worried, fear, anxiety and frustration is all they see. Very are smiling and the reason why is not far-fetch. You need to know about merit list, supplementary list and catchment areas to fancy your admission chances.

These things are very important so that you dont kill yourself of tension. after I wrote about what to do if you score below 50 in the post ume exams, many students have been calling and writing in to ask for merit list and supplementary list.

Below is my explanation.

MERIT LIST ADMISSION
Merit list is for those who meet the cut off marks. They deserved the admission on merit.

The university will fix a cut off mark following the general performance of candidates in a particular examination.
They use a marginal curve for this and make sure for each department at least they have 20-30 people who fall inside that curve.
Example:
Now assuming cut-off is 60, and you score 60 and above you will get in on MERIT. If you scored 59.98 you will not still get in on MERIT, although you may get the admission. Those that got in here are not better than others, just first fruits.

CATCHMENT AREAS
After merit list they will then fix the cut-off mark for catchment areas. this knowledge is very important when you are filling your JAMB form.

Ekiti, Ondo, Ogun, Oyo, Lagos, Osun
have catchment with UNILAG-that means they have consideration for admission because the school is located in this region, every school have their catchment area. So If you are from Osun for example and you scored 57 you may get into UNILAG on merit even when the cut-off is 60. do you understand?

SUPPLEMENTARY LIST
Supplementary is everyone who has a godfather, moneybags, connections. Here you did not meet the MERIT list this is your time to shine. .hehehe
