PROF TEE-JAY

.The university has officially opened its admission portal for new applicants. This means you can now go online and start your application. But before you rush to fill out the form, take a few minutes to read this carefully. This guide will help you understand what to do, what you need, and how to avoid simple mistakes that could delay or cancel your application.


 What Is This Application All About?

This application is for people who want to study in the university for the 2025/2026 academic year. The application form is now available online, and you can fill it out on your phone or computer. But remember, the school is serious about correct information, so you must be very careful when entering your details.

This is not something you rush. If you make a mistake, it could affect your admission.


 Application Deadline

The application will close on Friday, 15th August 2025.

CampusInfo report that means you have a limited time to apply. If you don’t apply before that day, you will miss out. The portal will stop accepting applications once it reaches the deadline.

So please, don’t wait until the last minute. Try to apply as early as possible to avoid issues like slow internet, errors, or even missing the deadline by mistake.


 Important Things to Do Before You Apply

CampusInfo Advised that before you start filling out the form, here are a few important things you should do:

1. Get Your Documents Ready

Make sure you have all your necessary details with you. Especially your JAMB Registration Number. You cannot complete the form without it. Other details like your full name, email address, phone number, and O’level results will also be needed.

2. Use a Working Email Address

You need an email that works and that you have access to. This is where the school will send your verification email. If you don’t have access to the email you used for your JAMB registration, consider updating your email with JAMB first or creating a new one for this application.

3. Check the Spelling of Your Name

Make sure your surname and other names are spelled exactly the same way they appear in your JAMB and WAEC/NECO results. Mismatched names can cause issues.

4. Have Good Internet Access

Try to use a place with good internet. This will help you avoid errors or interruptions while filling out the form.


 Double-Check Your Details!

One of the most important things you must do is double-check your information before clicking “submit.”

Why is this so important?

Because once you submit your form, you may not be able to change some details again. This is especially true for your JAMB Registration Number. If you make a mistake in entering it, your application might not be processed.

So please, check your:

JAMB Registration Number

Full name (Surname, First name, Middle name)

Email address

Phone number

Date of birth

O’level results (WAEC, NECO, or equivalent)

Even one wrong letter can make your form invalid.


 Didn’t Get Your Verification Email?

After you fill and submit the form, the school will send you a verification email. This email is very important because it proves that you are the real owner of the email address you used.

What if you don’t see the email?

Don’t worry. First, check your inbox. If it’s not there within 2 minutes, check your spam or junk folder. Sometimes emails go there by mistake.

Still can’t find it?

Here’s what to do:

Go back to the admission portal.

Click on Update Application.

Log in with your JAMB Registration Number and Surname.

Check if the email address you used is correct.

You can re-send the verification email from there.

Don’t panic. It happens sometimes. Just follow these steps and you’ll be fine.
