A candidate, **Musa**, has raised a very important question that many students preparing for admission are also asking: > *“Is it every university that conducts Post-UTME, and how is it like?”* As candidates begin to plan their next steps after writing the UTME, understanding how Post-UTME works is very important. ![JAMB 2027: Is It Every University That Conducts Post-UTME?](https://examloaded.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/JAMB-2027-Is-It-Every-University-That-Conducts-Post-UTME-300x202.webp)JAMB 2027: Is It Every University That Conducts Post-UTME? ## Does Every University Conduct Post-UTME? **No**, not every university conducts a physical Post-UTME exam. Here’s how it usually works: - Some universities conduct a **Post-UTME screening exam**, where you go to the school and write another test after [JAMB UTME.](https://examloaded.com/) - Some universities only do a **screening exercise** without an exam. They will check your **JAMB score** and **O’level results ([WAEC, ](/waec-questions-and-answers/)[NECO](/category/neco/))** and use that to calculate your admission chances. - A few universities combine both — a **test and document screening**. It depends on the school. Popular [universities](/tag/jamb-courses-and-institutions/) like **UNILAG, UNIBEN, UNILORIN, UI, and OAU** usually conduct full Post-UTME exams. Others like **LASU** and some private universities may just do screening without a test. ## What Is Post-UTME Like? When a school conducts a Post-UTME exam: - It is usually **computer-based (CBT)** just like JAMB. - The subjects you’ll answer depend on the course you applied for. (Example: A Medicine applicant may write English, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.) - Questions are **simpler** and **fewer** than JAMB — maybe 40 to 60 questions. - **Speed and accuracy** are very important because the time is usually short. When it is just a screening (no exam): - You simply **upload your O’level results**. - The school will **calculate your aggregate score** based on your JAMB and WAEC/NECO grades. ## Important Tip for Musa and Other Candidates - Always **check your school’s admission portal** after [JAMB](https://www.jamb.gov.ng/) results are out to know if they will conduct Post-UTME or screening. - Prepare early, especially for schools known to conduct exams. ## Final Words Musa’s question shows that preparing for Post-UTME is not just about studying — it’s also about **knowing the process** of each school. Stay alert, follow your school’s announcements, and get ready for the next step toward admission. Good luck to everyone! Your journey is just beginning.
