How to Improve Your Chances of Gaining Admission into UAES

Getting into UAES Umuagwo requires more than just meeting the cut off mark. Here are a few practical suggestions that can improve your chances of securing admission:

  1. Score as high as possible in JAMB. The higher your UTME score, the stronger your position during the admission process. Aim for at least 200 if you want to be competitive for highly competitive courses and programmes.

  2. Prepare seriously for the post UTME. The post UTME contributes greatly to your aggregate score. Practise past questions from the university and similar institutions to sharpen your skills.

  3. Choose the right course. If your JAMB score is on the lower side, consider applying for a department with a lower cut off mark where competition is less intense. You can always change department after gaining admission.

  4. Ensure your O-Level results are complete and accepted. Make sure you have the required subject credits and that they are uploaded correctly on your JAMB profile before the registration deadline.

  5. Accept your admission on CAPS promptly. Once offered admission, log in to JAMB CAPS and accept it within the stipulated time to avoid losing your slot to another candidate.
