- Select the “Check Admission Status” option.
- Choose “Access My CAPS”, then click “Admission Status”.
- You’ll see one of the following outcomes:
- Congratulations / Admitted — your name is included.

Requirements & Screening Information
Before offering admission, OAUSTECH had set out eligibility criteria for applicants:
- Candidates must have made the school their first choice and scored at least 150 in UTME.
- Applicants need to possess five (5) O’Level credits including Mathematics and English, in no more than two sittings.
- For certain programmes (like Nursing Science, Medical Laboratory Science, Public Health), a higher UTME score threshold (e.g. 180) applies.
- Since all Science courses now run 4 years, the selection criteria may be more rigorous.
- Age requirements: generally, candidates must be 16 years old by 30 September 2025, though very exceptional younger candidates with high UTME scores may be considered.
These criteria reflect OAUSTECH’s attempt to maintain standard and quality in its admission process.
What to Do After Admission
If your name appears on the list, here’s your roadmap:
- Accept the offer on JAMB CAPS — confirm you wish to take the slot.
- Print your JAMB admission letter — this is needed for screening and registration.
- Gather your original credentials — O’Level results, UTME result, birth certificate, identity documentation.
- Attend institutional screening / verification as scheduled.
- Register in your department and pay acceptance / school fees as required.
- Watch for announcements on orientation, matriculation, and lecture commencement.
Missing any key deadlines or failing to accept the offer may result in the withdrawal of your admission.
If Your Name Isn’t Listed Yet — Don’t Give Up
Not seeing your name yet doesn’t necessarily mean you lost out. Many universities admit in batches. Here’s what you should do:
- Keep checking your CAPS dashboard frequently — updates can happen at any time.
- Verify that your O’Level results, UTME scores, and screening submissions are properly uploaded and valid.
- Make sure you complied with the screening and post-UTME requirements.
- Be aware of upcoming second batch / supplementary lists.
- Stay calm, be ready, and act fast when your name is notified.
Reports already confirm the first batch admission list for OAUSTECH and that the school is receiving many enquiries from students checking their status.
Why Some Names Delay
Some candidates’ names may not appear immediately due to reasons such as:
- High competition and limited spaces in some programmes.
- Delays in administrative validation or verification.
- Faulty or missing documents during screening.
- Internal processing backlog in uploading names to CAPS.
- Candidates not meeting supplemental criteria (e.g. thresholds for special programmes).
Understanding these possibilities can help maintain patience.
Final Thoughts & Encouragement
The release of the OAUSTECH / OSUSTECH Admission List 2025/2026 is a major milestone. If your name appears, congratulations — act quickly to accept and complete your registration steps.
If you’re still waiting, stay hopeful — many students are admitted in subsequent rounds. Keep your documents ready, check CAPS consistently, and stay alert to updates.
