The management of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) has officially announced the extension of the registration period for the 2025/2026 Post-UTME screening exercise.
Initially, the registration was expected to close earlier in August. However, the university has now shifted the closing date to Tuesday, 26th August, 2025, giving candidates additional time to complete their applications.
Why the Extension Matters
Every year, thousands of candidates apply to FUNAAB because of its reputation for academic excellence and its focus on agriculture, sciences, management, and technology. With such a high number of applicants, it is common for some candidates to face challenges when trying to meet the original deadline.
This year, several aspirants reported issues such as:
- Delay in obtaining or uploading their O’level results (WAEC, NECO, or both).
- Technical problems with online registration and payments.
- Last-minute rush that overwhelmed the system.
In response to these concerns, FUNAAB’s management decided to extend the registration window. The goal is to ensure that all qualified candidates, particularly those who might have been left behind due to genuine challenges, get an equal opportunity to apply.
What Candidates Must Do Before the Deadline
With the new date fixed for August 26, 2025, candidates now have extra time. However, this should not be taken for granted. All applicants are strongly advised to use this period wisely by doing the following:
- Visit the official FUNAAB admission portal https://admission.funaab.edu.ng/2025/ and complete the Post-UTME registration process.
- Upload your correct O’level results as required. Ensure that your grades are properly entered.
- Verify your UTME details — including your score and the choice of FUNAAB as your first institution.
- Make payment for the Post-UTME form only through the approved channels provided by the university.
- Double-check all information before final submission to avoid errors.
Remember: Late registration after Tuesday, August 26, 2025, will not be entertained.
