If you’re looking to gain admission into Federal University Lokoja (FULOKOJA) for the 2025/2026 academic session, this guide has everything you must know—minimum scores, who is eligible, how to register, and some handy tips to help your chances.
🧮 Cut-Off Mark & Baseline Requirements
- UTME applicants must score at least 160 to be considered for most programmes.
- Direct Entry candidates must have applied through JAMB and meet the academic qualifications required.
- For competitive programmes (e.g. Medicine, Health Sciences, Pharmacy etc.), higher cut-off scores apply (often above baseline).
- All candidates must have achieved at least five credit passes in O’Level subjects, including English Language, in not more than two sittings—though some health‐related courses may require them in one sitting.
✅ Eligibility Criteria
You must satisfy all of the following:
- Choose FULOKOJA as your first-choice institution in UTME or process a change of institution before registering if needed.
- Meet the minimum UTME score (160 or higher for your course) and have valid O’Level results.
- For Direct Entry, hold recognized qualifications like ND, NCE, HND or equivalent, with acceptable grades.
- O’Level results must be uploaded to JAMB CAPS before the screening; applicants with “awaiting result” status may begin registration but can only be fully processed once results are uploaded.
- A working email address and phone number are required for correspondence.
📝 Registration Process & Fee
Here’s how you register:
- Visit the FULOKOJA Post-UTME / Direct Entry screening portal once registration opens.
- Pay the screening fee (₦2,000) through approved payment channels.
- Fill in your biodata and relevant academic information accurately.
- Upload O’Level results (and DE credentials if applicable), your UTME result slip, and a recent passport photograph.
- Submit the form, then print or save your acknowledgment slip for your records.
⚠ Important Dates & Notes
- The screening period usually opens in late July and ends around mid-September.
- Ensure all required documents are in order before deadlines. Late submissions often face technical issues.
- Once the O’Level results are uploaded to JAMB CAPS, double check that all details match your UTME records to avoid disqualification.

💡 Pro Tip for FULOKOJA Aspirants
Many candidates forget to regularize their O’Level uploads on JAMB CAPS after registration — this is a common reason why otherwise qualified students miss admission. After registering, log in to JAMB CAPS and confirm your result status shows “Approved” for admission consideration.
