  4. Proceed to check the FUTO admission portal for further instructions regarding acceptance fee payment, clearance and registration.

What If Your Name Is Not on the List?

Candidates whose names do not appear on this Merit List are advised not to lose hope, as universities typically release admission lists in multiple batches. Additional batches, sometimes referred to as supplementary or subsequent admission lists, are usually released later to fill remaining vacancies in various programmes.

Such candidates are encouraged to continue monitoring:

  • The official FUTO admission portal, and
  • Their JAMB CAPS profile,

for updates on subsequent batches of admission.

A Word of Caution

With the release of this list, candidates and parents are advised to be wary of unofficial sources or individuals claiming to offer admission "assistance" for a fee. The only authentic source for confirming admission remains the official FUTO portal and JAMB CAPS.

Successful candidates are advised to act promptly on their admission offers, while others are encouraged to remain hopeful and keep checking for further updates.
