The Office of the Admission Officer at the Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE) has formally issued a critical administrative circular addressed to all Heads of Departments (HODs) and Deans of Schools. This directive outlines mandatory registration protocols for all part-time students admitted for the 2025/2026 Academic Session.
This exercise is a statutory requirement aimed at regularizing the admission status of part-time candidates within the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) central database. Failure to comply with these procedures may result in the invalidation of the student’s academic records at the national level.
CORE DIRECTIVES FOR AFFECTED PART-TIME STUDENTS
The memorandum specifies two primary actions that must be completed by all part-time students to secure their institutional standing and future graduation eligibility:
- CBT Centre Registration: All affected students are required to visit any Accredited JAMB CBT Centre to formalize their part-time registration. This step is a prerequisite for the generation of official JAMB Admission Letters.
- O’Level Result Re-upload: Candidates must ensure their O’Level results (WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB) are successfully re-uploaded onto the JAMB CAPS portal. This ensures that the academic qualifications used for admission are verified and visible to the Board.
INSTITUTIONAL SCOPE AND PUBLICITY
To ensure total compliance across the university, the Admission Officer has urged HODs to give this memo the widest possible publicity. The circular has been distributed to a diverse array of departments and faculties, including but not limited to:
- School of Science: Department of Computer Science.
- School of Engineering: All Engineering Disciplines.
- School of Arts and Social Sciences: Department of Mass Communication.
- School of Agriculture: Department of Agricultural Technology.
Copies of this mandate have also been dispatched to the Deans of all Schools to monitor departmental compliance and ensure no student is left behind.
RATIONALE: WHY THIS PROCESS IS MANDATORY
- Official Recognition: Without a JAMB Admission Letter, a student is not recognized by the Federal Government as a legitimate student of the institution.
- NYSC/Exemption Eligibility: Proper JAMB registration is the only pathway to being mobilized for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) or receiving an Exemption Certificate upon graduation.
- Data Integrity: Re-uploading O'Level results prevents discrepancies during the final graduation clearance and certificate processing stages.
CONCLUSION: IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED
Part-time students are advised to treat this directive with the utmost urgency. Students who already possess a JAMB registration number but lack an admission letter must still visit a CBT centre to rectify their status.
