The
Public Relations officer of the Nigerian Universities Commission, Ibrahim
Yakasai, has stated that despite the new directive scrapping the Post-UTME,
universities are allowed to screen students sent to them for admission by the
Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB.
Speaking
on NTA, Yakasai said the new directive does not restrict any university from
screening students sent to them by the exams board.
Usually,
during admission, universities and other schools are allowed to do elementary
screening. The screening include actual verification of Jamb slip,
crosschecking of documents for admission, medical test, age check and a host of
other prerequisite for securing of admission.
You
will recall that the Federal Government on Thursday ordered that the
examinations usually organized by universities in Nigeria for admission seekers
after the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations should be scrapped.
