The University of Abuja has addressed concerns raised by parents and candidates regarding perceived differences between their results and Post-UTME scores for the 2025/2026 admission exercise.
According to the institution, the Post-UTME grading system is technical and does not assess results blindly. Each candidate’s performance is evaluated based on the course applied for. For example, a candidate seeking admission into MBBS will have Biology weighted more heavily, while Economics will not count towards the evaluation. Conversely, for candidates applying for Economics or related programmes, Economics is given priority over Biology.
The University explained that even when candidates possess identical grades, differences in subject relevance lead to variations in their final Post-UTME scores.
Management assured all stakeholders that the process remains transparent, credible, and in line with established standards, urging parents and candidates to trust the system as it is committed to fairness and accuracy in admissions.
