As the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) concludes, prospective university, polytechnic, and college students across Nigeria are turning their attention to the next critical phase: the Post-UTME screening. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the expected timeline for Post-UTME screenings and offers guidelines to help candidates navigate the process effectively.
When Will Post-UTME 2025 Begin?
Though no Nigerian institution has commenced the sale of Post-UTME forms for the 2025/2026 academic session. The commencement of Post-UTME screenings is typically contingent upon the release of the JAMB Policy Meeting outcomes, which set the minimum cut-off marks and other admission guidelines.
