OOU Admission List for 2025/2026 Session: How to Check & What You Should Know
Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago-Iwoye, has officially released its admission list for the 2025/2026 academic session. Candidates who participated in the Post-UTME screening exercise can now check whether they’ve been offered provisional admission.
Quick Insight: Admission into OOU for this session requires a mixture of UTME and Post-UTME performance, proper upload of O’Level results, and timely acceptance of offer via JAMB CAPS.
1. The Admission Procedure & Eligibility Criteria
• Only candidates who took part in the Post-UTME screening are considered.
• Minimum aggregate score requirement: UTME + 400 (weighted 60 %) plus Post-UTME + 100 (weighted 40 %).
• Uploading O’Level results (WAEC/NECO) into JAMB CAPS is mandatory. Those who fail to do this risk losing their offer.
• All admissions are processed through **JAMB CAPS** — candidates must accept offers there first to proceed.
2. How to Check Your OOU Admission Status
Here’s how candidates can confirm their admission status:
• **Via JAMB CAPS**: Log in to your JAMB profile, look for “Admission Status” and check if OOU has made you an offer.
• **Via OOU portal**: Use your JAMB registration and necessary credentials to log into the OOU portal and track admission decisions.
• **Accept the offer**: Accepting admission on JAMB CAPS is required, otherwise no admission letter or registration will follow.
3. What to Do After You’re Admitted
• After accepting on JAMB CAPS, print your JAMB Admission Letter to proceed with registration.
• If you’ve been offered admission for a different programme than your original choice, follow the official course-transfer and programme change protocols before proceeding.
• Make sure all documents are uploaded, and follow the university’s instructions for registration and verification.
What This Means for Applicants & Education Stakeholders
The release of the OOU admission list is a major milestone for many prospective students. Here are some broader points:
• For students, confirming your admission early helps you avoid missing out during subsequent batches or losing offers due to inaction.
• JAMB’s CAPS system continues to be central — smooth interaction with it prevents many common admission errors.
• For education policy, ensuring transparency in screening, aggregate calculations, and post-UTME processes remains crucial in building trust among applicants.
• Challenges remain: bandwidth & access to online portals, awareness of transfer protocols, and ensuring that O’Level uploads are timely and verified.
If done well, OOU’s process can serve as a model for balancing fairness, procedural rigor, and accessibility in university admissions.
