The FUTD admission list contains the names of candidates who have been offered provisional admission into various undergraduate programmes for the academic year.

For prospective students, this list confirms whether they have successfully met the university’s admission requirements.

Here, you will learn how to check the FUTD admission list, what to do after seeing your name, how to accept your admission on JAMB CAPS, and the important next steps to secure your place at the university.

How to Check the FUTD Admission List 2025/2026

There are two main ways to check your FUTD admission status: via the JAMB CAPS portal and via the FUTD official admission portal. Both methods are explained in detail below.

Method 1: Check via the JAMB CAPS Portal

The JAMB Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) is the primary platform through which all Nigerian universities, including FUTD, upload their admission lists. Follow these steps:

  1. Open your mobile browser or desktop browser and navigate to the JAMB e-Facility portal at https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/.

  2. If you are using a mobile device (especially Chrome), tap the 3 dots menu at the top right corner and select "Desktop Site" to ensure the page loads fully.

  3. Log in using your JAMB registered email address and password.

  4. Once logged in, scroll down and click on "Check Admission Status" or "Access My CAPS".

  5. Select your exam year when prompted and enter your JAMB registration number.

  6. Click "Check Admission Status" to view your result.

Method 2: Check via the FUTD Official Portal

You can also verify your admission status directly through the FUTD admissions portal:

  1. Visit the official FUTD website at https://futd.edu.ng/ or the dedicated admissions portal at admissions.futd.edu.ng.

  2. Look for the "Admission Status" or "Check Admission" option on the navigation menu.

  3. Enter your JAMB registration number in the required field.

  4. Click "Submit" to view your admission information.

If your admission has been confirmed on CAPS but is not reflecting on the school portal, allow a few hours and try again. If the issue persists, contact the FUTD admissions office directly.

How to Check FUTD Direct Entry Admission List

Direct entry candidates are equally catered for in the 2025/2026 FUTD admission exercise. The Direct Entry admission list has been uploaded on JAMB CAPS alongside the UTME lists.

To check your Direct Entry status:

  1. Go to the JAMB eFacility portal at https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/.

  2. Log in with your JAMB profile credentials.

  3. Select "Check Admission Status" and choose your exam year.

  4. Enter your JAMB Direct Entry Registration Number.

  5. Click "Submit" to view your status.

Direct entry applicants must also accept their admission on JAMB CAPS after confirmation, just like UTME candidates.

What to Do After Seeing Your Name on the FUTD Admission List

Confirming your name on the FUTD admission list is only the first step. Here is a clear checklist of what to do next:

Step 1: Accept Your Admission on JAMB CAPS

Log in to the JAMB CAPS portal and formally accept your admission offer. You can also accept via SMS by sending ACCEPT to 55019 or 66019 using the phone number linked to your JAMB profile. If you wish to decline, send REJECT instead.

Step 2: Print Your JAMB Admission Letter

After accepting the offer on CAPS, proceed to print your official JAMB admission letter from the JAMB e-Facility portal. This is an important document required for your clearance and registration.

Step 3: Pay the Acceptance Fee

Visit the FUTD official portal at www.futd.edu.ng and pay the non refundable acceptance fee to secure your admission. The acceptance fee must be paid promptly to avoid forfeiting your offer. Steps to pay:

  1. Go to www.futd.edu.ng and log in to the student portal.

  2. Navigate to the payment section and select "Acceptance Fee".

  3. Generate a Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR).

  4. Make a payment online using your card or at any bank using the RRR number.

Step 4: Pay School Fees

FUTD school fees range from approximately N240,000 to N245,000 per session, depending on the faculty and whether the student is a new or returning student. Hostel accommodation is available at approximately N90,000 per session.

Step 5: Gather Your Clearance Documents

Prepare the following documents for physical clearance and registration:

  1. JAMB Result Slip (with passport photograph)

  2. JAMB Admission Letter

  3. O-level Result(s) (WAEC, NECO, or equivalent)

  4. Birth Certificate or Declaration of Age

  5. Certificate of Local Government of Origin

  6. Passport photographs

Any other documents as specified by the FUTD registry

Why Your Name May Not Appear on the FUTD Admission List

If your name is not yet on the admission list, do not panic. Several reasons may be responsible:

  1. Incomplete O-level Upload: Candidates who fail to upload their O-level results to JAMB CAPS may experience delays in admission processing.

  2. Low Screening Score: If your aggregate score is below the departmental requirement, admission may be delayed or denied.

  3. Admission Still in Progress: Sometimes, the university releases names in batches. Your name may appear in a later batch.

  4. Wrong Subject Combination: Incorrect UTME subject combinations may affect admission eligibility.

  5. Failure to Meet Departmental Requirements: Each programme has specific requirements that must be met before admission is granted.
