The University of Calabar (UNICAL) has released its admission list for the 2026/2027 academic session.

UNICAL 2026/2027 ADMISSION LIST
The list of successful candidates has been uploaded online through the JAMB Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS).
Candidates are advised to check their admission status on JAMB CAPS using the procedure outlined below.

“Sorry, No Admission has been Given Yet.”
Candidates are advised to continue checking their JAMB CAPS regularly if they have not been offered admission yet.
