Updated on 6 November 2026 · How we verify
Quick answer: The UI admission portal is at admissions.ui.edu.ng. Use it to buy the screening form, upload documents, check your post-UTME result and admission status, pay acceptance fee and start registration. Your JAMB admission status itself lives on JAMB CAPS.
Last updated: November 2026 · Academic session: 2026/2027 · UTME year: 2026
Where the admission cycle stands (November 2026):
- 2026 UTME: held 16 – 25 April 2026; results released from 17 April 2026 (within 24 hours of the first papers).
- Cut-offs for 2026/2027: fixed at the JAMB policy meeting of 11 May 2026 (universities 150, colleges of nursing 150, polytechnics 100; NCE admission no longer requires UTME).
- Admissions now: institutions are uploading 2026/2027 offers to CAPS; JAMB deadline for public universities 31 October 2026, private universities 30 November 2026. Accept any offer within four weeks.
- Next cycle: 2027 UTME registration is expected to open in late January 2027 — see the JAMB registration guide and JAMB exam date.

How to log in to the UI admission portal
- Open https://www.admissions.ui.edu.ng in Chrome or any modern browser (avoid Facebook’s in-app browser).
- Click Admissions / Applicant Login.
- Enter your JAMB registration number (UTME/DE applicants) or the application number and password the portal issued you.
- If this is your first visit, click Create account / New applicant; use a working email because payment receipts and notices go there.
- Forgot password? Use the reset link; it sends a code to the registered email or phone.
Portal problems and fixes
- “Record not found”: your JAMB data has not been synced yet, or you did not choose this school. Wait 24–48 hours, or do a change of institution first.
- Payment made but not reflecting: re-query the RRR on the portal; if it still fails after 24 hours, contact the ICT/bursary with your receipt.
- Upload errors: use JPG/PDF under the stated size limit; rename files without spaces.
- Site down: peak traffic during form sales causes outages; try early morning.

Verify before you pay or act: Portal addresses occasionally change when schools migrate systems; a link that redirects to another domain should be confirmed on the official website. The only authoritative source for UI is ui.edu.ng and the school’s official notice boards. If a figure here differs from what the school publishes, the school is right.
Frequently asked questions
What is the UI admission portal address?
admissions.ui.edu.ng. Bookmark the official address; fake portals appear during form sales.
Can I check my UI admission status on the portal?
Yes, after the school processes admissions. But the authoritative record is JAMB CAPS — an offer not on CAPS is not valid.
How do I check my UI post-UTME result on the portal?
Log in with your JAMB registration number and open the screening result menu after results are released.
Why can't I log in to the UI portal?
Common causes are an unsynced JAMB record, a wrong application number, or caps-lock in the password. Reset the password or contact the admissions ICT desk.
