FOUYE ANNOUNCES POST-UTME/DE DOCUMENT UPLOAD, SCREENING STATUS AND ADMISSION PROCESS FOR 2026/2027

The Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FOUYE) has provided additional guidelines for candidates participating in the 2026/2027 Undergraduate Programme Admission Screening Exercise (UPASE). Applicants are advised to carefully follow all instructions regarding course changes, document uploads, application submission, and admission status monitoring to avoid disqualification.

Important Notice on Change of Course

Candidates considering a Change of Course (COC) are strongly advised to evaluate their O'Level subject combinations and grades before making any changes. The university emphasizes that it is the responsibility of each candidate to ensure that the new programme selected aligns with their qualifications and admission requirements. Choosing a course that does not match the required subjects may negatively affect admission consideration.

Document Upload Stage

After confirming eligibility on the admission portal, candidates are required to upload all supporting documents needed for the screening exercise. The university advises applicants to prepare their documents properly before beginning the upload process.

Steps for Uploading Documents

1. Scan and save all required documents on your computer or storage device.
   1. Log in to the admission portal and click the "Upload Documents" option.
   2. Select the appropriate document category from the list provided.
   3. Choose the correct file from your device.
   4. Click the upload button and wait until the system confirms successful upload.
   5. Repeat the process until all required documents have been uploaded.

Important Upload Tips

Candidates should ensure that:

• All documents are clear and legible.
• Files are uploaded in approved formats such as PDF or JPEG.
• Uploaded documents are complete and not blurred.
• Every required document is uploaded before proceeding to the final stage.

The university warns that poor-quality or incomplete documents may delay processing or lead to rejection of the application.

Final Submission Process

Once all required documents have been uploaded successfully, candidates will proceed to the final submission stage. At this point, applicants should carefully review all information provided during registration to ensure there are no errors or omissions.

Applicants are expected to:

• Verify all personal and academic information.
• Follow the on-screen instructions to submit their application.
• Print or save a copy of the application summary for future reference and record-keeping.

Application Status Monitoring

FOUYE has advised all candidates to regularly check their application status through the screening portal. The university noted that official updates will not be communicated through email or SMS, making it important for applicants to monitor their application themselves.

Possible Application Statuses

CLEARED

An application will be marked "CLEARED" if:

• All uploaded documents are correct and clear.
• The candidate meets the required cut-off mark.
• All admission requirements have been satisfied.

REJECTED

An application may be marked "REJECTED" if:

• Documents are unclear or incomplete.
• Admission requirements are not fully met.
• Errors are detected in the submitted information.

In some cases, candidates may be given an opportunity to correct identified issues and resubmit their documents.

DISQUALIFIED

An application may be DISQUALIFIED if the candidate:

• Fails to meet admission requirements.
• Uploads forged or falsified credentials.
• Provides fraudulent information during the application process.

Clearance Does Not Guarantee Admission

The university has emphasized that obtaining a "CLEARED" status does not automatically guarantee admission. Final admission decisions will still depend on institutional requirements, available quotas, and JAMB admission processes.

Proposed Admission Stage

Candidates whose applications successfully pass the screening process may progress to the "PROPOSED" stage. This status indicates that the candidate is being considered for admission through the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) admission processing system.

Final Advice to Candidates

Prospective students are encouraged to ensure that all information supplied during registration is accurate and truthful. They should upload only genuine documents, monitor their admission status regularly, and promptly address any issues raised by the university. Candidates should also keep copies of all submitted documents and registration records throughout the admission exercise.
