At 17, Oyinloye Ayomide Secures Admission Into UNILORIN To Study Computer Science
A 17-year-old Nigerian student, Oyinloye Ayomide, has gained admission into the University of Ilorin (UNILORIN), Kwara State, to study Computer Science.
Ayomide shared the news on LinkedIn on November 2, revealing that her admission offer came on October 2, 2026.
She scored 83 out of 100 in her Post-UTME examination, earning a place in the competitive Computer Science programme.
According to her, her journey to admission was not without challenges. She disclosed that she did not perform as expected in some examinations during her final year in secondary school. Rather than allow the setbacks to discourage her, she chose to work harder, rebuild her confidence and improve her performance.

Now that she has secured admission, she hopes to make the most of her university experience by participating in hackathons, technology events and conferences, developing practical projects and connecting with experienced professionals in the tech industry.
She described herself as curious, determined and ready to put in the effort required to achieve her goals.
Her journey serves as a reminder that a difficult academic season does not have to define one's future.
