The Central Admissions Committee (CAC) of the Federal University Lokoja (FULokoja), at its 44th official meeting, formally considered and approved the official schedule of events for the 2026/2027 Admissions Exercise. Consequently, the newly appointed Vice-Chancellor, Professor Gbenga Solomon Ibileye, alongside the university registrar, has released the strict timeline layout for both Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and Direct Entry (DE) candidates looking to anchor their academic careers in Kogi State.
While multiple federal institutions have delayed their internal screening outlines, FULokoja has deployed a structured, proactive calendar to process incoming profiles smoothly. Indeed, the institution has finalized a strategic timeline spanning from advertisement launch to full freshers’ resumption. Therefore, prospective applicants must map out their credentials early to match the strict operational frames declared below.
Official FULokoja 2026/2027 Admission Timeline & Schedule
Because system entry sequences are strictly monitored by software algorithms, candidates must pay close attention to the definitive start and close markers:

Statutory Entry and Eligibility Requirements
Based on the university’s standardized admission parameters, candidate profiles must align perfectly with the following criteria to access the processing portal:
- Official UTME Cut-Off Mark: The general baseline score stands at 160 and above in the 2026 JAMB examination. Notably, specialized competitive streams—such as the College of Health Sciences (Medicine and Surgery) and the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences—demand significantly higher merit margins.
- The First-Choice Protocol: Applicants must have chosen Federal University Lokoja as their first-choice destination. If you did not, you must perform an immediate JAMB Change of Institution to FULokoja at an accredited CBT center before the screening portal locks down.
- O’Level Sitting Rules: Minimum of five (5) credit passes in relevant subjects, including English Language and Mathematics, obtained in no more than two (2) sittings.
- Critical Exception: Candidates tracking into Medicine & Surgery or Pharmacy must clear all 5 core science credits in a single sitting via WAEC or NECO.
The Online Point-Based Screening Format (PBS)
Furthermore, candidates should prepare for an integrated Online Screening – Point-Based System (PBS). FULokoja does not plan to conduct a physical written exam or on-campus CBT.
Your final institutional ranking is computed digitally by cross-matching your JAMB score with your verified O’Level grades. On the other hand, this means that any candidate who fails to upload their verified O’Level results to their central JAMB CAPS profile via an approved CBT center will be completely bypassed by the university’s processing scripts.
Step-by-Step Portal Application Instructions
The standard screening processing fee is fixed at a statutory, non-refundable cost of ₦2,000. Consequently, candidates must complete their profiles online using these verified system steps:
- Access the Student Portal Subnet: Once the gate opens on June 9, navigate straight over to the official university link at www.fulokoja.edu.ng.
- Verify Portal Eligibility: Click on Admissions -> Undergraduate -> Post-UTME Portal, and type in your active 2026 JAMB Registration Number.
- Populate the Biodata Sheet: Complete your demographic profiles, functional contact mail, and personal phone settings.
- Process Payment Remittance: Generate your unique Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR) billing invoice and settle the ₦2,000 screening fee securely online using your debit card parameters.
- Upload & Compute Results: Input your exact O’Level examination details for instant system verification, track your calculated screening points, and print out your colored FULokoja Post-UTME Screening Slip.
