FUTA — Federal University of Technology, Akure — is one of Nigeria's most respected federal universities of technology. Established in 1981 in Akure, Ondo State, as part of the federal government's initiative to create technology-focused universities, FUTA has built a reputation for producing strong graduates in engineering, science, environmental sciences, and technology over its four decades of operation. The university is located in Akure, the Ondo State capital, and its admission is consistently competitive.
Has FUTA Started Post UTME Registration?
Yes. Online registration has commenced from Monday 1st June 2026 and closes Friday 3rd July 2026. If you chose FUTA as your first choice on JAMB and scored 180 or above, your registration window is open right now. Do not wait — the 3rd July deadline is firm.
Does FUTA Do Post UTME Screening?
FUTA conducts a Post-UTME screening exercise, not a physical exam. The screening is based on your JAMB score and O'Level results. No Written Exam: Unlike some universities, FUTA doesn't require a written Post-UTME exam. Instead, the screening is based on document verification.
This is critical information for FUTA candidates — you are not preparing for a CBT exam. What you are doing is making sure your JAMB score meets the cut off, your O'Level results are uploaded to JAMB CAPS, and your application is completed accurately and submitted before 3rd July 2026.
What Is the Cut Off Mark for FUTA Post UTME 2026?
Candidates must score at least 180 in the 2026 UTME to be eligible for the FUTA screening exercise.
The aggregate cut-off point for Nursing at FUTA is 75.00, while the JAMB cut-off mark required for Nursing is at least 220 and above for the 2026/2027 academic session. For Medicine and Surgery, candidates need to score at least 250 and above in their JAMB UTME.
The departmental cut off breakdown for key FUTA programmes: - Medicine and Surgery: 250 and above - Nursing Science: 220 and above - Engineering programmes: typically above 200 - All other courses: minimum 180
The approved JAMB cut-off mark for FUTA for this session is 180 and above. Only candidates who score 180 and above are eligible for the FUTA Post UTME exercise.
FUTA MBBS Medicine Programme Has Been Reinstated
This is major news for candidates targeting medicine at FUTA. FUTA announced an important update regarding its medical programme. Admission into the MBBS programme, which had earlier been suspended, has now been reinstated. This means that qualified and interested candidates can now apply for admission into the programme during the 2026/2027 admission exercise.
If you want to study Medicine and Surgery at FUTA, this is the session to apply — the programme is reinstated and candidates who score 250 and above in JAMB and meet the O'Level requirements are eligible to apply.
FUTA Portal Login for Course Registration
After admission, the FUTA student portal handles course registration for newly admitted students. The portal login uses your student matriculation number and assigned password provided after full registration is completed. Course registration opens after acceptance fee payment is confirmed.
O'Level Requirements and JAMB CAPS Upload
Your O'Level results must be uploaded to JAMB CAPS and shared with the FUTA Post UTME Screening form portal before the deadline. Each course has its own departmental cut-off mark based on the number of applicants and competition.
Candidates must choose FUTA as their preferred institution and as their First Choice Institution. Only first-choice FUTA candidates can access the screening portal. Candidates who did not initially choose FUTA must visit a JAMB CBT centre to process a Change of Institution before registering.
I want to be clear about one thing — the 3rd July 2026 deadline is real and FUTA does not typically extend it. Candidates who register on the last day often encounter portal congestion and payment delays that cost them their screening slot. Register now while the process is smooth.
