Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, has announced that candidates who participated in its 2026/2027 admission screening exercise can now check their admission status.
According to the admission notice, the list of admitted candidates has been uploaded to the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board’s Central Admissions Processing System (JAMB CAPS) and the university’s admission portal.
Candidates can check their admission status on JAMB CAPS by following these steps:
-
Visit https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/ and log in using your registered email address and password.
-
Click on “Check Admission Status.”
-
Select “Access my CAPS.”
-
Click on “Admission Status” to view your admission status.
Candidates who have been offered admission should see a congratulatory message alongside their photograph. Those who have not yet been offered admission may receive the message, “Sorry No Admission has been Given Yet.”
Candidates who receive admission offers are required to accept or reject them by sending ACCEPT or REJECT via SMS to 55019 or 66019, using the phone number linked to their JAMB profile.
The notice states that candidates have four weeks to accept their admission offers. Those who no longer have access to their registered phone numbers are advised to visit a JAMB-accredited centre to complete the process.
Admitted candidates are also advised to print their JAMB admission letters after accepting their offers, as the documents may be required during clearance and registration at the university.
For candidates accessing JAMB CAPS on mobile phones, the notice recommends using Google Chrome's desktop mode if the admission status option is not visible.
To do this, open Chrome, tap the browser's menu and select “Desktop site” to display the full page.
Candidates are advised to check both the university's admission portal and JAMB CAPS regularly for updates and to complete the necessary admission procedures within the stipulated period.
