Entry candidates for the aptitude tests that will be
conducted by the universities. Students with
matriculation numbers of universities are not eligible to
sit for the UTME. If they are not satisfied with their
chosen disciplines, they can ask for transfer.’’

seeking extension of the UTME registration deadline
due to irregularities in the ongoing registration

think that there is inadequacy in the number of
centres stipulated to register candidates for the UTME
