Delta State University released her Departmental cut-off marks for candidate seeking for an institution in 2016/2017 to check at www.delsu.edu.ng weekly bulletin.

baba do u know how they arrived at those cutoffs

geo4c:
OAU jst want to used the remaining candidates frm tough courses to fill in the less courses oda dan admitting those with 195 in deir preferred course... jamb gave dem admission with 195 cuz dey merited it dere with any of the criteria(merit, catchment and ELDS).. buh OAU denied such person admission cuz dey want deir general cutoff to be 200.. u don't blame jamb.. u blame OAU... somebody with 215 and couldn't make pharmacy will den take ur place in the admission process via supplementary list... don't knw if am making any sense

but the fact still remains if u were posted by jamb.. go for ur screening, if ur credentials are complete den u ought to b admitted, if u were not admitted den ur school will tell jamb y u weren't admitted

the omnibus list waz sent to all University such as to fulfill all righteousness ni.. many a school usually generate much revenue in postutme form, u can't jst let jamb and FG deprive schools of that money... so i think dats the reason everyone will/can register and still stand a chance to b admitted


#Geo4c

there is no supplementary list as admission is going coming from jamb... u can only go to your school to collect your admission letter

Fynestboi:
You ain't meant to know if your name was sent or not, just do your school screening based on what the school have for you.

i agree with you on this.and the list will be resent to jamb for final approval and that is the posted list and not the omnibus list

ella4140:
according to a post I got suffing tru d Internet .
NOW LETS GO TO THE REAL ISSUE. WHY HAVEN'T I
BEEN POSTED DESPITE MY JAMB SCORE.
please i have been going through some comments
in this site on JAMB ENABLES PORTAL FOR
ADMISSION CONSIDERATION. so reaching page 140
of those comments, one of the lads said
something that i pick and which made me to go
back and study that Jamb Admission guidelines
again. lets take a close look at the comment and
then try to compare it with Jamb Guideline. the
guy
" Joshua Abuke said:
Good Afternoon,afta recent events of some
being posted and others not being posted,I and
my Dad decided to hear the truth from the horse's
mouth(We went to jamb headquarters). Now the
crux of the matter is thus; According to
them,those who were initially posted was just a test
run.They said it wasn't possible to be posting
about 1.5million candidates as it costs money.So,
it was decided the screening list is to be sent to the
universities .Now according to school quota
(number of students they can accommodate per
course) our details has been sent,so your name
will appear on screening list based on the three
criteria(merit,catchment,Elds). So being posted
doesn't really count. So everybody go for ur
screening Oh.dont panic because few peeps were
posted. Cos nobody will posted on the portal
again.Go for screening,info hundred percent
reliable".
That's what the guy Just said.

NOW LETS TRY AND COMPARE IT WITH THE
GUIDELINE RELEASED BY JAMB.
Page 2 and No 8 of the guideline said:
consideration of the recommended list as
FORWARDED by Jamb should be completed within
one month from the date of receipt of the List.
Now in my own view i think that Jamb can only
recommend only the people that has 180 and
above and where are they going to forward to ?
they are going to forward it to the school. for
what? for admission consideration. which means
that there is every possibility of Jamb
forwarding everybody that scored 180 and above
to their schools, so when they reach they will be
screen(considered/checked)and don't even be
surprise if i'm posted on Jamb portal with 180 to
a less competitive course in uniben i might be
sent back by the school,REASON i didn't reach
the school cutoff of 200, because I'm being sent
there for ordinary screening and not to go and
collect my admission letter, please I'm not
wishing badluck to people with 180 posted to a
school that has a traditional cutoff like
UNILAG,BETTER BY FAR,GREAT IFE,UI etc. just
that this schools cannot compromise and
accommodate such person unless God's hand is
there.please get me right,if you crossed the
school minimum cutoff mark and your
department is less competitive needless to worry,
so you can go to the comments of JAMB ENABLES
PORTAL FOR ADMISSION CONSIDERATION. This means that everybody has
been posted to their school whether it shows on
Jamb portal or Not.
hope its helpful. had to cut it short.

hmmm the thing is two lists were sent to the institutions by jamb i-e, the omnibus list that contains the names of all the candidates that chose a particular institution and the list of candidates posted as regards the institutions capacity.the truth is only candidates posted are supposed to go for the screening but because jamb has said that institutions are at liberty to source from the omnibus list to fill vacant spaces, these institutions are now using the omnibus list to screen so that in the end if anyone be screened out from the posted list,the institution can replace such one from the omnibus list. and remember that the posted list will be sent back to jamb for approval and not the omnibus list. and if any student is screened out and be replaced from the omnibus list, the institution must state reasons plud evidence as to why such candidate was screened out. nice observation though

SlimBrawnie:
Pls I want to understand something, does posting mean admission? Cos my baby sis applied IBBI, did the screening and has been posted,but we really don't know if it means she's been admitted or we have to wait for the admission list.

she hasn't been admitted but she now has a higher possibility of being admitted provided she has her complete o'level results and correct subject combination

firstly,the criteria used by jamb as stated are the 45% by merit,35% by catchment and 20% by elds.secondly,jamb stated that the list of candidates sent are those who are qualified for screening with regard to the institutions carrying capacity but am of the opinion that candidates who chose a certain institution but were not posted can also go for the screening since jamb had also sent the omnibus list containing the names of all the candidates that chose such institutions.besides the institutions have been asked to source from the omnibus list to fill any vacant space so if one is not posted but did the screening,who knows one can still be picked to fill these vacant spaces and if some candidates that were posted are screened out due to incomplete o'level results or wrong subject combination,those in the omnibus list will be used to replace them.so it's important that one goes for screening whether they are posted or nit.the omnibus list is where the universities will have the opportunity to bring in their own candidates.

STPEACE:
lolz, my kid sister is yet to be posted and from this statement from fg, it seems there won't be any posting, so my question now is how will she know that she is qualified for the screening.

ok boss. the truth is there won't be anymore posting.she would be notified when they are posted to other schools

i think what this simply means is that the names of the candidates posted by jamb to these institutions will be forwarded back to jamb for approval after the screening...so candidates who were not posted but took part in the screening are on their own

Angeldepedro:
I'm really angry right now, i want this to get to as many people as possible, I'm currently in ife, I'm considering putting it in the newspaper tomorrow, don't know who to contact, a fresher was telling me yesterday of how tired she's since last year, she's has been admitted but she's still at home, don't know why the moderators refused to push it to front page, when it's not the cleavage of an actress or all those irritating bleached celebrity pictures

i feel your pains bro. wish this can reach the appropriate bodies

Fynestboi:
Here is the breakdown


1500: Screening Fee
5000: Result Checker (Like seriously )
350: Bank charges.

My concern then is, what result will the freshers be using 5000 to check?

am of the opinion that from next year,the minister will fix a non negotiable and uniform fee as a result they want to quickly make as much money this year....it's even worst that candidates not posted are still asked to participate in the exercise knowing fulll well that they won't be admitted

Angeldepedro:
This is the least expected of a school who presently has a lot to deal with, the candidates they admitted since last year are still at home while their counterparts in other schools are almost through with year one, No Vice- Chancellor, No governing council, they don't care about the students they sent home, all that they are interested in is the money to extort from admission seekers

imagin inviting candidates with 180 to register and be screened for medicine just so as to collect their money. i don't understand why they can't obey simple instruction i-e, screen only candidates recommended by jamb.

STPEACE:
so how will someone know that his/her name had been uploaded?

visit jamb.org.ng and type in your jamb reg number

blessedmarshal:
Delsu was 7200, I ended up paying 10000, Tasued 10, 200 I ended up paying 11500, have done both and have spent more than 30k sef

sorry bro.havent you been posted.

Batifeori:
You better find somewhere else to exhibit your gullibility and dumbness. Where were you when jamb debunk the above point system of a thing. Jamb only make use of it as a reference and said it will not favour most of the students and they jettisoned it

see me see gobe o..
where did he even originate from

McJane:
what about people that haven't been posted what will jamb do for them?

they will be posted by jamb to institutions that may take them for consideration

Jordi:
This is total rubbish from jamb and ministry of edu...so what is the essence of writing jamb and scoring above cutoff mark only not to be posted...by scoring above the cutoff mark we shld all be qualified for screening in the school of our choice that they themselves allowed us to choose wen filling the jamb form...it is only after screening and not being shortlisted by the institution that jamb has the right to post us somewhere else...even by that they shld post us to our second choice of institution

and you think everyone that scored above the cutoff mark of 180 will be admitted.u and i know that even with putme it's not possible

Jonwesley:
What are you saying please? You are confused! It's only those candidates that meet admission criteria that would be screened. Don't you get it? No body screens inadmissible candidates please.

Your thoughts is just like the university who in spite of knowing their admission carrying capacity, yet goes ahead demanding that every one that scores 180 even for a course like Medicine that had failed abnitio, should go to their online portal to fill form and pay money. It's simply extortion and wickedness.

I support the Government stand on this clarification please.

exactly...this is the case bro. they will just collect their money and in the end,they will admit only candidates posted by jamb

ademiD:
like seriously, they are just confusing the aspirant...

iyami eku sunday o...hope u were posted

nobsalis:
And IBBUL is busy collecting money from all candidates all in d name of screening...... Wen we all knw not all d candidates gonna get d admission.

that is the problem bro....some people will come here to blame it on jamb and the fg.jamb said only people posted should be invited for screening but these schools keep doing the opposite

dope234:
will they use the consideration list or not, the one jamb sent to them last week

they will be posted to other institutions by jamb since they were not posted to their chosen institutions

Flexherbal:
The system is confused!

dont agree with you on this bro. the system has been saying the same over again but these schools aren't listening.they are the people complicating issues.

harlehleh:
What about people that havent been posted to their schools but had above 200??

they will be posted to schools where they might be considered for admission

STPEACE:
it seems no more posting anymore

i think so,looking at number
10 of jambs admission guidelines,it was clearly stated that the screening list has been uploaded on jamb's website for prospective students so going by this statement,there might not be further posting.if not,jamb wouldn't have made such statement.my observation though and to those waiting for official statement from jamb, i think jamb already stated it as written above.

weezii:
I think this is the main information to be learnt.

It's simply translates to less money in the pockets of the universities and students who don't qualify gets to save their monies too unlike what is applicable before now.

no...not before now bro infact it's now worst or how can one explain how lasu charged 5k,delsu 5k, uniport 6500,oau 6850 from not only the candidates sent to them for consideration but also from every candidate that chose them and had 180 and above. perhaps they are using there last opportunity to make enough money.

Naijabams:

these institutions wont just listen. they are the ones complicating this whole thing. some are even still grading results and awarding screening scores even after jambs guidelines..i tire o

dayowunmi:
Yes in most cases sir, those who scored 290 are more intelligent than those who scored lower, it's obvious enough. There may be exceptions to the rule which may be due to distractions or unseriousness on the part of the 290 scorer or maybe the one who scored less than 290 didn't prepare well enough for jamb and now later buckled up after admission. But no way you will prove that someone with 250 is better than 290.

like u said bro there are exceptions.what if he is that exception plus for him to have chosen o.a.u knowing that he's from kaduna says alot. secondly, i have someone with 190 in jamb scoring 96 in unizik putme and was given medicine

dayowunmi:
Hmmm, they are not helping the guy at all. OAU insisting on 200 score to me is not essentially because they are wicked but if you can't score atleast 200 in both jamb and post jamb you simply most likely won't be able to cope academically in OAU. Talking from experience as a graduate of the school. This guy with 186 will have it rough in school when/if admitted.

so you think he wont cope because he had 186?what makes you so sure that he wouldn't have scored higher if there were putme or do you think people who 290 and above are more intelligent than those that scored lower

adebayour26:
They said d name was forwarded for consideration. Am quite sure OAU will not consider the candidate qualified for their admission
......
WATCH OUT!!!

no one is rejecting her, read the guidelines again. she can only be rejected if she has any deficiency in her o'level result. if non,then she's in or what reason will o.a.u give for rejecting her

jliusadura:
So, how can Nigeria develop when more qualified aspirants are denied admission because of the less qualified ones? Besides, all states now have universities unlike before when elds policy was formulated.

bros calm down,it has been like this since the outset.. and even with putme it was still the same. it has also affected me once but there's nothing we can do about it because even the universities are in support of it and they have been using this method all along but there's a fowl play.instead of admitting elds, they fill the spot up with candidates that pay for runs,that is why jamb is solely handling the process to see to it that the elds are also given priority

we shouldn't forget in a haste that jamb is using three criteria in posting candidates to these schools and the fact that kaduna has 5 institutions does not change the fact that it isn't an educationally less developed state. you and i know that the number of versities in a given state is not the criterion used to determine an ELDS. am of the opinion that since jamb is in charge of admission,any candidate who score 180 and above can be posted to any school for admission consideration since it's no more putme where cut off is set at 200. i have seen someone with 196 posted to unilag as well. it's 45% merit,35% catchment and 20% elds.it simply means that if there are 100 candidates for a particular course and 50 candidates have scores btw 250 and above .jamb will not admit the whole 50 because they have high have high score, it will only admit 45 and also choose candidates with lower scores perhaps even below 200 using catchment and elds.. so someone with 260 who does not get it on merit and not from catchment or elds does not mean one from elds but scored lower can't get it.

Angeldepedro:
That's not true, JAMB has already made made clear the official guidelines for admission without post utme, though i believe more names will still be posted. But the talk that JAMB is test running something is laughable, didn't your dad ask what it is they were test running by posting some names and leaving others behind, and no i don't think posting cost any money, it's just as good as uploading names on the internet in a specific school, this is not 1978 when JAMB used to deliver admission letters in your home address,so I don't think posting names via the internet cost money. Read below the guidelines given by the Minister of Education on 11/7/2016 again, though i believe the admission will be done in batches. Merit 45% catchment/locality 35% ELDS 20%

trust me bro people can imagine anything just to give themselves hope. this was how they spread that point system stuff btw how did this article get here in the first place

i read some comments and i become angry...this system was initiated before jamb started posting candidates because at that point the admission process was still vague.there shall be no cut off mark or why has eksu not release her own cutoff mark plus the process has to be uniform not some schools doing different things and others doing another. dont expect any cut off mark. i did screening at delsu and there was no screening scores given to anyone..the truth is if you have been posted by jamb and there's no deficiency in your 0'level results,go and start celebrating
