Federal University Lokoja (FULOKOJA) is moving into the next stage of its 2026/2027 undergraduate admission exercise, with the university’s Central Admissions Committee scheduled to meet on Thursday, September 17, to consider and approve the Post-UTME screening results and admission parameters.
The university’s approved admission schedule states that the Central Admissions Committee will consider the Post-UTME screening results and the 2026 admission parameters during the September 17 meeting. The development marks an important stage in the university’s admission process following the conclusion of the screening registration period.
FULOKOJA’s admission process covers candidates seeking admission through UTME and Direct Entry. The university’s 2026/2027 admission requirements state that candidates must have a minimum UTME score of 160 to participate in the Post-UTME screening exercise, subject to programme-specific requirements.
The university’s admission timetable provides for further consideration of admission recommendations after the September 17 meeting. Faculties and departments are scheduled to forward their recommendations, while the Central Admissions Committee is expected to consider and approve the recommendations on September 29.
FULOKOJA is subsequently scheduled to forward its 2026/2027 admission recommendations to the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board through the Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) on October 5, 2026. This means candidates should continue monitoring both the university’s admission channels and their JAMB CAPS profiles as the process progresses.
Meanwhile, the Federal College of Education, Katsina has published a new student admission shortlist dated September 15, 2026. The college says new students can view the admission list through its admission portal.
The college’s official website carries the admission-shortlist notice under its September 15 events and directs candidates to its admission portal to check their status. Candidates are expected to use their application details to determine whether they have been included in the latest list.
The Federal College of Education, Katsina also maintains an electronic application and admission portal where applicants can access admission-related services. Candidates should use the institution’s official portal rather than relying on unofficial lists circulated through social media.
For FULOKOJA applicants, the immediate date to watch is September 17, when the Central Admissions Committee is scheduled to consider the Post-UTME results and admission parameters. For FCE Katsina applicants, the immediate step is to check the newly published admission shortlist through the college’s official admission portal.
