FINgames:
please how did you prepare for the jupep fpundation entrance exam

All schools have their own method of examination just like post utme. I only know about UNILAG but nt other schools.

johnyumez:
Thanks man.. means a lot! So where did you apply for ur direct entry? And can someone apply for different schools at dsame time?(if he gets good grades after d program)
Also any need to reg for d upcoming jamb?

I chose UNILAG for DE.
You can only apply to 2 schools on d DE form(1st n 2nd choice) but its adviceable to choose d school u did ur jupeb since you'll b applying with awaiting result on ur DE form. If u re not sure of urself u can still apply for jamb but its not compulsory

eddy1759:
Pls what are the requirements both monetary aspect for med in unilag

The form for UNILAG as closed, they're even resuming on monday

johnyumez:
I'm applying for jupeb at Unn, i would like to hear from students who scaled through this programme.. especially What and what should i be expecting, Do they take the programme seriously unlike pre degree programs in some schools.. thnkx in advance! Honestly waiting for your replies.

I did d programme n I scaled through. Its an A level programme just like Cambridge a level or Ijmb. I did mine in UNILAG so I don't really know much abt how unn will do theirs but all I know is that all schools doing d programme will write d same final examination. It may seem tough at the beginning but with hard work n dedication you'll scale through. And they take it more seriously than predegree( waec, Neco, NUC, jamb, etc are members of d board of jupeb. But UNILAG is d head of d board).

olustephenlr:
I used dear sir instead of ma for the registrar hope it won't affect me

it won't affect u. in formal letters its always adviceable to use dear Sir especially if u don't know if d person is male or female

wunderkiind:

@davbravo can i be able to pay the acceptance fee nxt week and wat else do i need to hold when submitting the acceptance letter/form...

I dont know, They said d deadline is 26th n its until then we can know if they'll extend d deadline.
You need a reference letter addressed to THE DIRECTOR, SCHOOL OF FOUNDATION STUDIES, UNIVERSITY OF LAGOS, AKOKA, LAGOS., from a clergyman or lawyer, bank teller n receipt( you get print it from ur portal) of fees, o'level certificate/ statement of result, birth certificate, bio data form( update and print it from your portal), acceptance letter, secondary school testimonial, 2 files( paper files). Make sure you have at least 2 copies of the documents above and also keep a copy for urself. Make photocopies of d bank teller. All this documents above were what I submitted during my registration last year so I don't know if any other document is need just make sure you're with other important documents.

wunderkiind:
Wow, thanks a looot for the timely reply. I appreciate. But @ bolded, hmmm...

Na wa o! Well, I hope there is an extension like you said, in fact, I'll be glad if it's more than one week sef. Coupled with the public holidays... They had better extend the date o!

@Faculty of science..

Bro, pls any idea of the total amount to be paid in the first instalment, the medical, jupeb, biometric, everything?

Pls you skipped this question: Can someone yet to register by that 28th date, be allowed to receive lectures?? #dilemma

#Kinda hesitant to register........

Thanks once again.

first installment N182,500(including medical fee)
2nd installment N175,000
jupeb fee N25000
biometric ID card fee N850

And someone yet to register b4 d 28th will be allowed to receive ( its not that there'll be security at d entrance of d hall) but u have to complete ur registration b4 d deadline( they may extend d deadline) .
You'll be having ur lectures @ faculty of science diploma hall( when u get there just ask where's diploma hall).
1st week of lectures won't be intense but I advice u to go

Sheikwonder:
Not true.Social Science has no diploma hall. The halls are used depending on how free it is,if all the halls are in use,your class will be fixed for another time. That was one of the problems my bro had while studying Economics there.Thank God he made it...

OK. I only spoke generally because faculty of science n education have diploma hall, I don't know abt other faculties. All I know is that all faculties have their respective venues for lectures.

kidrossy:
I heard we're not going to be writing semester exams also is dis true.. thanks

its not true.
You'll write 1st n 2nd in course assessment and exam. All are d same.( The same no of questions for both test/ assessment n exam), so don't joke with all of them

kidrossy:
Thanks bruh,so all foundation students in one venue...that's one big a** class and also are we not going to be writing semester exams.

No, all foundation students will not be in d same classroom. All faculties have their own diploma Hall/ classroom

osayame01:
I don't want to cause alarm its not my intention to, but I just called the faculty coordinator for business admin and she said there's nothing like addition of 1point. Am still finding it hard to believe, I really really hope is not true because some of my friends had 12points and accounting cut off is 13points.

Maybe they've not informed her, its jupeb or foundation office that'll add d 1point so y will they add 1point for sciences n medicals n not add for business administration, arts n other faculties

maestromedal:
Pls,wu has an idea of how much private schools dey charge for original waec result cos I no attend d skul,I jst do external there,i dey book 5k

@least 4k but some schools can collect up to 10k

kidrossy:
The total fee is 407,500
Acceptance fee-25,000 Tuiton Fee-357,500 Jupeb fee-25,000....excluding bank charges

in addition to this, 850- Biometric ID card fee

Resodielle:
thanks bro. that's the recipient what about the recipient's address?

University of Lagos, Akoka, Lagos is d address.

osayame01:
Someone went to foundation office and they said they have compiled the admission list that they are waiting for further instructions from Jamb but before the end of this week they would have sent it. And the person also said that the additional one point is only for medical students[medicine]. That if you re in other faculty even if you pass the 3 subjects one point would not be added that's what the director said. I hope this is not true sha cuz the additional one point is gonna help a lot of people. God help us

I don't think so, d additional 1point is meant to be for all faculties. I hope it's not true.

kidrossy:
@davbravo are we also gonna be receiving lectures with the utme students also and still write the 100lvl exams...mehn its surely gonna be stressful

No there's a separate classroom for foundation students with AC

Sheikwonder:
From what I heard,2014 9points,2013 5points...but I'm not too certain...

You are right. 2013/2014 cut off 5 points while this year 2014/2015 9points

Resodielle:
And what's the exact school address?

The registrar, just write;
The registrar, university of Lagos, Akoka, Lagos

kidrossy:

emmafizzy:
why did you say science courses shouldn't be chose,explain

I said don't choose OAU if u are a science student because OAU does not offer science courses in jupeb. but other universities offer science courses in jupeb except OAU

yun9Neph:
Pls who has an idea abt UNILAG cut off point for medicine and surgery via Direct entry. I'm using cambridge A-Levels

d cut off for those using jupeb is 16points so for u to have a good chance of been admitted with ur Cambridge A levels u must have AAA(16points)

if u wrote waec this year ur certificate won't be ready yet. if its last year or d year b4, etc, you can get it from d school you wrote the exam( if its may/June) or from waec office ( if its Nov/DEC, GCE). And you don't need a scratch card to collect it, just ur waec number and d online print out( if you are collecting it from their office)
