Are you curious if the University of Ibadan (UI) accepts third-choice candidates during JAMB registration? Relax, you’re not alone. Many aspirants have asked this exact question, and here’s the honest answer you need.

Does UI Accept Third Choice in JAMB?

No, UI does not accept third-choice candidates for admission. Unfortunately, the University of Ibadan is not among the institutions JAMB allows to be selected as a third choice during registration.

Even though JAMB now permits candidates to choose some universities as third choice, UI remains firm in admitting only first-choice candidates. This policy ensures the institution gives priority to candidates who specifically selected UI as their preferred university.

Does UI Accept Candidates Who Didn’t Choose Them in JAMB?

In the past, UI allowed candidates who didn’t select them in JAMB to participate in their Post-UTME screening by filling out a manual form. However, this is no longer valid. Currently, UI strictly requires that candidates make them their first choice to qualify for the admission process.

If you mistakenly chose UI as a third choice or didn’t pick them at all, you’ll need to:

  • Change your institution to UI as your first choice on the JAMB portal.
  • Upload your O’level results on the JAMB CAPS portal.

Without completing these steps, you won’t be considered for admission, even if you meet UI’s cut-off marks.

Why Doesn’t UI Accept Third Choice Candidates

Most top-tier universities, including UI, do not accept third-choice candidates due to high competition. The institution prioritizes first-choice candidates to streamline the admission process and maintain their standards.

Can Third-Choice Candidates Participate in UI Post-UTME?

While third-choice candidates may desire to participate in UI’s Post-UTME, it is impossible unless you:

Change UI to your first choice before the screening registration starts or before the deadline as it takes around 1 – 2 weeks for the change to reflect on the school’s portal.

Conclusion

If you’re serious about gaining admission into UI, make them your first choice during JAMB registration. Without doing so, your chances of being admitted are nonexistent. Remember, the University of Ibadan only considers first-choice candidates for its competitive admission process.

For further inquiries, feel free to use the comment section or contact a JAMB-accredited center to assist with your change of institution process.

Optimize your admission chances today by making UI your first choice!

No University,Polytechnic or College of Education/Health accepts third choice anymore.

It’s either you make them first choice or nothing especially with the introduction of JAMB CAPS,you can only get admission into one school and accept it on JAMB portal.
