Step 4: Create an Account or Log In

Use your JAMB registration number to access the portal. Provide a valid personal email address and active phone number, as all communications, including your activation link, will be sent to these contacts.

Step 5: Pay the Screening Fee

Pay the required non refundable screening fee as stipulated on the portal. Payment is typically made via Remita, ATM card, or bank transfer. Keep your payment receipt as proof of registration.

Important Advice for FUEK Post UTME Applicants

Understanding the Post UTME process can be overwhelming, especially for new applicants. The following guidelines will help you avoid common mistakes and improve your chances of a successful application:

  1. Register Early: Do not wait until the deadline to register. Early registration gives you time to resolve technical issues, upload correct documents, and avoid the sudden server congestion that typically occurs near deadlines.

  2. Use a Valid Email Address: All confirmation messages, activation links, and important notifications will be sent to your registered email. Ensure you have access to this email throughout the process.

  3. Verify All Entries: Incorrect UTME scores, wrong O-level grades, or inaccurate personal information can lead to disqualification. Review all details before submitting the form.

  4. Upload Clear Documents: Blurry or illegible document scans are a common cause of application rejections. Scan your documents in a lighted environment and ensure each page is fully visible.

  5. Retain All Receipts and Slips: Your payment receipt and registration slip serve as proof that you participated in the screening. Keep printed and digital copies safe.

  6. Avoid Fraudulent Agents: The management of FUEK has repeatedly warned candidates to disregard any person or platform claiming to offer guaranteed admission. The only recognised platform for registration is the official FUEK portal.
