candidate must emanate from any other source (JAMB inclusive),
outside the list prepared and recommended by the institutions.
Oloyede said this during he First Technical Committee on
admission to First Choice Institutions held at the Bayero
University, Kano (BUK).
He said that the Senate/ Academic of each institution has the
prerogative of admitting candidates, “ but this must be in adherence
to the national policy.
He added that, “for the first time, there won’t be written post
Universal Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) test for
candidates, seeking admission into Nigerian Universities this
year. ”

institution reserves the prerogative of admitting candidates of their
respective institutions, subject of course only to national policies.
Among others, the policies include, guidelines stipulated by the
proprietors of the institution on 60/40 (Science/Art) ratio for
conventional Universities, 80/20 (Science/Arts) ratio for non-
conventional Universities and use of 2016 JAMB/UTME results
