Welcome back to campusnownow.com. Here is our Post-UTME Screening Form Guide. If you recently checked your JAMB scores, congratulations on crossing the first major hurdle. But let’s be absolutely real—JAMB is just the preamble. The actual battle for your university admission has officially begun.
Following the major JAMB policy meeting held on May 11, the admission floodgates are wide open. Multiple federal, state, and private universities have rapidly rolled out their screening portals for the new academic session. If you sleep on this information, you might just miss your dream school’s deadline.
To ensure you stay entirely ahead of the curve, we have extensively researched and compiled the ultimate tracker for the Post-UTME 2026 admission cycle. Grab your notepads. Let’s dive in.
General Requirements for the 2026 Screening
Before we jump into the specific schools, you must put yourself in order. Almost all universities operate under strict JAMB guidelines this year. If you fail to meet these basic criteria, buying a screening form is a complete waste of money.
- JAMB CAPS Upload: You MUST upload your O’Level results (WAEC, NECO, NABTEB) to the JAMB Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS). Awaiting results are conditionally accepted but must be uploaded before the university’s final admission deadline.
- Change of Institution: If the school selling the form is not your first choice, you must perform a JAMB Change of Institution at an accredited CBT center immediately before applying.
- Age Limit: Remember the new strict mandate from the Federal Government. You must be at least 16 years old by September 30, 2026, to be eligible for any tertiary admission this year.
- Official Application Fee: The federal government legally caps the official screening fee at exactly ₦2,000 (excluding bank and portal processing charges).

How to Apply Like a Pro (Avoiding Scams)
Every single admission season, desperate students lose thousands of Naira to cybercafe scammers and fake “admission runs” agents. Protect your money and your future by strictly following these rules:
- Verify the URL: Never click registration links forwarded from random WhatsApp groups. Always type the university’s official web address directly into your browser.
- Use Remita Safely: All federal and state universities use Remita for payments. Generate your RRR (Remita Retrieval Reference) code on the school portal yourself before paying at the bank or via your banking app.
- Use a Functioning Email: If a school needs to send your screening date or admission status, they will use your email. Do not let a cybercafe operator use their own email address for your profile. Use yours, and make sure you know the exact password.
- Print Your Slips: Always print a colored copy of your screening registration slip and your JAMB original result slip. You will absolutely need them to enter the CBT hall.
Crucial Warning: No university lecturer, admissions officer, or staff will ever ask you to send money to a personal bank account to “upgrade” your Post-UTME score. If it sounds too good to be true, it is an absolute scam.
The Post-UTME 2026 registration window is incredibly short. Do not wait until the last minute before trying to generate an invoice, as school servers are notorious for crashing on deadline days. Secure your O’Level results, confirm your JAMB change of institution, and get registered today.
Keep your eyes glued to campusnownow.com, as we will continually update this list the moment heavyweight institutions like UNILAG, UNIBEN, and OAU announce their official dates.
