Posted: Mon Jun 15 2026
The University of Lagos (UNILAG) has officially commenced the registration process for its 2026/2027 Post-UTME screening exercise. The institution has activated its online registration portal, allowing eligible candidates to begin the admission screening process for the upcoming academic session.
This development comes as welcome news to thousands of candidates across Nigeria who selected UNILAG as their first-choice institution during the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and are seeking admission into one of the country's most prestigious universities.
Registration Now Open
According to information released by the university, all suitably qualified candidates are expected to visit the designated admission portal and complete their registration within the stipulated period. The Post-UTME screening exercise is a crucial stage in the admission process and serves as one of the requirements for gaining admission into the institution.
Candidates are advised to ensure that all information provided during registration is accurate and consistent with the details submitted during their UTME registration. Any discrepancy in personal information or academic records may affect the admission process.
