LAUTECH Post UTME Form 2026/2027 Is Out

The management of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso has announced the commencement of its admission screening exercise for the 2026/2027 academic session. The LAUTECH admission portal will open for online registration from Friday, 24th July 2026 and will close on Thursday, 3rd September 2026. All eligible candidates are advised to complete their registration before the closing date. Late applications may not be entertained.

LAUTECH is located in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, and has been one of Nigeria's foremost technology-focused universities since its establishment in 1990. It is jointly owned by the Oyo and Osun State governments and offers programmes primarily in engineering, technology, health sciences, agriculture, and sciences — making it a top destination for candidates whose strengths lean toward the applied sciences.

Is LAUTECH Post UTME Form Out for 2026?

Yes. LAUTECH Post UTME Form 2026/2027 is out. You can now buy and register online for the 2026/2027 Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) Post UTME and Direct Entry (DE) admission screening.

Both UTME and Direct Entry candidates who selected LAUTECH as first choice in the 2026 JAMB can proceed to register. Candidates who selected LAUTECH as their first-choice institution in the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) or applied through Direct Entry (DE) are invited to register online within the approved period.

Candidates who did not initially choose LAUTECH can also apply, provided they complete a change of institution to LAUTECH at any JAMB accredited CBT centre before registering.

When Is LAUTECH Post UTME Form Closing?

The LAUTECH Post UTME registration portal closes on Thursday, 3rd September 2026. That is a full six-week window from opening on July 24 — generous by Nigerian university standards.

However, do not mistake the length of the window for flexibility. In the 2025/2026 session, the Vice Chancellor approved an extension of the closing date from August 20 to September 3, 2025. The 2026/2027 session already carries that extended date from the outset. No further extension is likely. Register in the first two weeks and avoid last-minute errors.

Is the Post UTME Form Out Now?

Yes. The LAUTECH 2026/2027 Post UTME form is officially out and registration is live from July 24, 2026. This is confirmed from the university's official announcement. Click here to register and the Smartjamb Team will walk you through every step of the process.

Does LAUTECH Write Post UTME or Screening — Is There an Exam?

LAUTECH will not conduct Post UTME screening exam, also known as the "Aptitude Test," this year for candidates seeking admission.

This is the single most important fact for UTME candidates to understand. There is no CBT exam to prepare for, no exam centre to travel to, and no assigned test date. The entire screening for UTME candidates is an online credentials evaluation based on your JAMB score and O'Level results.

Admission is based on 80% UTME score and 20% O'Level grades. This formula is unusually UTME-heavy compared to most universities that use 50:50. It means your JAMB performance carries the vast majority of the weight in LAUTECH's admission decision. Your O'Level grades contribute the remaining 20% — still significant, especially for candidates sitting between two close aggregate scores.

For Direct Entry candidates, the situation is different. The Oral and Written Interviews for Direct Entry candidates will be conducted on campus at the Hall located on LAUTECH Campus, Ogbomoso. Failure to appear for the interview will lead to automatic forfeiture of the admission. DE candidates must be physically present on campus for their interview — confirm the exact interview date from your portal dashboard after registration.

How Does LAUTECH Give Admission?

Admission is based on 80% UTME score and 20% O'Level grades. LAUTECH uses a two-tier consideration system:

Merit admission — open to all candidates nationwide, based purely on academic performance. Your aggregate (80% JAMB + 20% O'Level) is compared against the departmental merit cut off mark for your chosen course.

Catchment area admission — a lower-threshold tier for candidates from the Oyo-Osun axis (states geographically close to LAUTECH's Ogbomoso location). Catchment cut off marks refer to the lower scores set by the university for students coming from regions considered geographically close to the university.

LAUTECH Aggregate Score Formula — How to Calculate Yours

Since LAUTECH uses an 80:20 formula and has no aptitude test, your aggregate is straightforward:

  • UTME component (80%): (JAMB Score divided by 400) multiplied by 80
  • O'Level component (20%): Convert your five best relevant O'Level grades to points (A1=6, B2=5, B3=4, C4=3, C5=2, C6=1), sum them, then use the scale factor for 20%

Example: A candidate with JAMB score of 220 and five O'Level grades averaging B2 (5 points each = 25 points): - UTME: 220 divided by 400 = 0.55, multiplied by 80 = 44 - O'Level: 25 out of maximum 30, scaled to 20% = approximately 16.7 - Approximate Aggregate = 60.7

Compare this against departmental cut off marks to see your admission prospects.

LAUTECH Cut Off Mark 2026/2027 — All Courses

To qualify for the 2026 LAUTECH Post UTME screening exercise, candidates must have scored a minimum of 170 marks in the 2026 UTME.

Departmental aggregate cut off marks (merit) for competitive programmes based on confirmed 2025/2026 data — these typically carry over with slight adjustments:

  • Medicine and Surgery: JAMB approximately 280, merit aggregate approximately 75+
  • Nursing Science: JAMB cut off approximately 260, merit aggregate approximately 72+
  • Medical Laboratory Science: JAMB cut off approximately 250, merit aggregate approximately 68+
  • Computer Science: JAMB cut off approximately 230, merit aggregate approximately 63.5+
  • Pharmacy: JAMB approximately 270, merit aggregate approximately 74+
  • Engineering programmes (Civil, Mechanical, Electrical): JAMB approximately 200 to 220, aggregate approximately 55 to 65
  • Agricultural Science: JAMB approximately 170 to 180, aggregate approximately 50+
  • Management Sciences and Social Sciences: JAMB approximately 170 to 200, aggregate approximately 50 to 55

LAUTECH occasionally releases supplementary admission lists after the main lists. These may have slightly adjusted cut off marks depending on available spaces. Candidates who miss the main list should keep their portals active and check for supplementary lists.

How Much Are LAUTECH School Fees Per Year?

This depends heavily on your faculty, your state of origin, and whether you are a fresh or returning student.

The LAUTECH undergraduate school fees range from N180,250 to N280,250 per session for the 2026/2027 academic year, with additional charges applying on top of this base figure.

LAUTECH freshers pay tuition fees ranging approximately from N372,400 to over N870,000 depending on their programme and state of origin, when all charges are combined. The wide range exists because of three key factors:

  • Faculty: Students in the College of Medical Sciences pay the highest supplementary fees — between N125,000 and N250,000 — while students in Agricultural Sciences and Engineering Technology pay approximately N30,000 in laboratory and studio fees.
  • Indigene status: Oyo State indigenes pay lower tuition than non-indigenes. The difference can be significant across some faculties.
  • Level: Fresh students (100 level) pay higher fees than returning students in some fee categories.

The acceptance fee for LAUTECH is N30,000. This is paid once, after you receive and accept your admission offer on JAMB CAPS, before you can proceed with any other registration step.

LAUTECH does not have on-campus hostels. However, there are numerous private hostels located near the university that provide convenient accommodation options for students. Private hostel costs around Ogbomoso vary from approximately N15,000 to N60,000 per session depending on the facility, distance from campus, and room type.
