This is to notify the general public, especially candidates who applied for the 2023/2024 admission exercise of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, that admission cut off marks for the various programmes offered by the university have been released.

Candidates are hereby advised to patiently wait for the release of their admission status on their individual portals when the admission list will be released.

However, candidates are warned in their own interest not to patronize unauthorized people on university admission. Suffice to say that any admission seeker who patronizes any unscrupulous person as facilitator of admission to the university does it at his or her own risk as the university will not be liable.

Notice is hereby given to all candidates who chose LAUTECH as their Institution of first choice in the 2023/2024 Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and Direct Entry that the portal for registration for admission to the various programmes in the University will be open on Tuesday, August 29, 2023 and close on Friday, October 20, 2023. Oral and written interview will be conducted for Direct Entry candidates on Monday, October 23 and Tuesday, October 24, 2023.

Applicants are to note that before admission can be offered by the university, they must have uploaded their O’Level results on CAPS and once admission is offered, the candidates must either accept or reject the offer on CAPS before JAMB’s closure of CAPS for the exercise in order to be on JAMB National Matriculation list. For UTME candidates to be eligible for the exercise, they must have scored 180 marks and above in the 2023/2024 tertiary matriculation examination.

Applicants are to proceed to the admission portal of the university at “apply.lautech.edu.ng” to make payment of Two Thousand Naira (N2,000.00) only for the purpose of registration for the post UTME exercise using Inter-Switch Enabled Debit Card (ATM card). Applicants are also advised to familiarize themselves with the available programmes in the university, the O’Level entry requirements and UTME subject combination for each of the programmes.

Any applicant with blurred picture on the acknowledgement page will not be admitted into the screening centre as the photograph will be used as a means of identification. The acknowledgement page should be presented by all candidates at the screening venue before admittance to participate in the exercise. Candidates should note that satisfaction of this requirement is mandatory. For ease of communication, applicants are to provide valid and active e-mail addresses and phone numbers.

Applicants are expected to carefully complete and submit online application forms by uploading a clear digital copy of their passport photographs in white background, which must be in JPEG and must not be more than 20kb.

Results uploaded after the prescribed timeline may not be processed. Also, inconsistency in names on any results and state of origin shall not be acceptable to the university and may lead to disqualification. Candidates’ names on their O’level results, other registration documents, as well as state of origin must be the same.

Any applicant for Direct Entry admission who fails to present himself/herself for the oral and written interview as scheduled will automatically forfeit being considered for admission.

Direct Entry applicants including those on LAUTECH JUPEB programme or other Institutions’ JUPEB programmes, who wish to be considered for admission for the 2023/2024 academic session must have obtained Direct Entry forms from JAMB to be eligible for the oral and written screening interview.
