How To Calculate Your 2017/2018 Admission Screening Score

Recall that the Management of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board has Scrapped out the Post UTME process of Admitting Students into Nigerian Varsities.

I am posting this information for candidates who are waiting for the Admission Screening Processes of their respective choice University to CACULATE and know their FATE.

This information would guide you during your Change of Course Process.

UPDATE: Expelled FUTO Students States the Reason for Hike in Tuition Fees

FROM SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORK

Ogbonna Collins Chukwuemeka (AKA ROCHAS), the Students Labour Forum President, Former SUG PRO and a 500-level students of Federal University of Technology, Owerri (FUTO) who was expelled on the 3rd of April for having led the Protest on the 17th of February against hike in tuition fees restated that the management of the University increased students’ fees as a means to generate revenue for the school.

Mr. Chukwuemeka, disclosed to SaharaReporters that the school was hell bent on raising internally generated revenue through anyway with the most effective means being exploiting the students.

He lamented that the increment came seven months after the inauguration of the incumbent Vice Chancellor, Prof. Francis Chukwuemeka Eze.

“The outrageous hike in fees came to students as a shocking announcement. The fee was on the high side and considering the economic situation of the country, the increase is unacceptable. The fees we are being asked to pay at FUTO are too high, and the burden will tell on all students especially newly admitted students who will have to pay acceptance and lodge fee etc.” Mr. Collins said.

Negating the claim of the management who through the V.C, spoke to Hot 99.5 FM and claimed that the tuition fee of the institution is only #13,000.
Mr. Collins disclosed that students of FUTO pay over #30,000 including various debased fee added to students’ tuition fees like Course registration, practical fees etc

The university geometrically increased fees are as follows:

— Acceptance fee for Freshmen was increased from #25,000 to #42,300

— Tuition fees for Freshmen was increased from #48,300 to #56,300.

— Second and third-year students tuition fees was increased from #33,300 to #39,300.

— Fourth year to final year students had their tuition fees increased from #27,300 to #39,300.

If you didn't pay your tuition fees before the Stated date, you be billed extra #10,000 for late Registration.

Another student who spoke anonymously to SaharaReporters said that the management is unconcerned about the students wellbeing and parental background and only wish to make money for the school through expulsion.
Now the Management brought in Bus Shuttle means of Transport into the School of which the added #5,000 for it to our tuition fees but can you imagine that we pay #50 before boarding the shuttle. This makes​ us ask what we paid the #5,000 for?.....He said
