LAUTECH Post UTME Form 2026 is Out: Deadline September 3, Cut Off Mark, Fees and How to Apply Share

LAUTECH Post UTME Form 2026 is Out — Deadline is September 3, Apply Now

Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, has officially opened its Post UTME and Direct Entry screening portal for the 2026/2027 academic session. Registration opened on Friday, July 24, 2026 and the portal stays open until Thursday, September 3, 2026 to register check here. That is a generous window by Nigerian university standards, but the September 3 deadline is firm and LAUTECH has not ruled out declining to extend it further.

LAUTECH is one of Nigeria's best-ranked state universities, jointly owned by Oyo and Osun States and consistently recognised as a leading institution in Engineering, Medicine, Computer Science, Agricultural Sciences, and Environmental Studies. The university was established on October 19, 1990, and named in honour of the late Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola, former Premier of Western Nigeria.

The total screening fee is N9,000-11,000 — N2,000 as the non-refundable application fee and N5,000 as portal access fee. For help with your application and admission process, click here to speak with the Smartjamb Team.

Is LAUTECH Post UTME Form Out for 2026?

Yes, confirmed. The LAUTECH Post UTME and Direct Entry screening form for the 2026/2027 academic session was officially released on July 24, 2026. The portal is currently active and open to all eligible candidates. Registration closes on September 3, 2026. Whether you have been asking if the form is out, whether LAUTECH is still selling the form, or whether you can still apply, the answer to all three is yes.

Is LAUTECH Still Selling the Form?

Yes. The LAUTECH Post UTME form is still available and the portal is accepting registrations. The window runs until September 3, 2026. However, LAUTECH advises candidates not to leave registration to the last minute, as the portal does experience congestion near deadlines and late applications may not be entertained even before the official closing date.

Is LAUTECH Doing Post UTME or Screening?

This is a critical distinction and it matters significantly for how you prepare. For the 2026/2027 session, LAUTECH does NOT conduct a written aptitude test for UTME candidates. There is no Post UTME examination paper. Instead, LAUTECH uses an online credentials evaluation method, where admission is calculated entirely from:

• 80% of your JAMB UTME score
• 20% of your O'Level grades

This means your JAMB result is by far the most important factor in your LAUTECH admission consideration. O'Level grades contribute meaningfully but your UTME score is the dominant figure. A candidate who scored 250 in JAMB with strong O'Level grades is in a significantly stronger position than one who scored 200, even if both are above the 170 cut-off.

Direct Entry candidates, however, must attend a physical oral and written interview on the LAUTECH campus in Ogbomoso. The DE interview for the 2026/2027 session is scheduled for Monday August 24 to Tuesday August 25, 2026, at the Hall on the LAUTECH campus. Failure to appear for the interview automatically forfeits the admission opportunity.

What is the Cut Off Mark for LAUTECH Post UTME Screening?

The general JAMB cut-off mark for LAUTECH for the 2026/2027 academic session is 170. This is the absolute minimum to be eligible for the screening exercise. However, the university has released departmental cut-off marks for 2026/2027, and these vary significantly by programme.

Confirmed and estimated departmental cut-off marks for competitive courses:

• Medicine and Surgery (MBBS): approximately 280
• Nursing Science: approximately 260
• Medical Laboratory Science: approximately 250
• Computer Science and Computer Engineering: approximately 230
• Electrical and Electronics Engineering: 210 and above
• Civil and Mechanical Engineering: 200 and above
• Biochemistry, Physiology, and Anatomy: 200 and above
• Agricultural Sciences: 170 to 190
• Management Sciences and Social Sciences: 180 to 200
• Environmental Sciences: 170 to 190

Candidates should check the exact departmental cut-off for their chosen course directly on the LAUTECH official portal, as the full 2026/2027 departmental list has been released and is the authoritative guide for each programme.

One sitting O'Level requirement applies to the following courses: Medicine and Surgery, Nursing Science, Medical Laboratory Science, Biochemistry, Physiology, and Anatomy. Candidates applying for these programmes must have all five required credit passes from a single sitting.

How Much is the LAUTECH Post UTME Form?

The total LAUTECH Post UTME screening fee for 2026/2027 is N7,000, broken into:

• Non-refundable screening application fee: N2,000
• Portal access fee: N5,000

Both are paid together through the official LAUTECH admission portal using an Interswitch-enabled debit card. Bank transaction charges of approximately N300 per transaction apply and are separate from the N7,000 total. Do not make any payment through agents, third parties, or unofficial channels.

LAUTECH Aggregate Score Formula

Since LAUTECH does not conduct a written Post UTME aptitude test for UTME candidates, the aggregate formula is simpler and more directly tied to JAMB:

Admission score = (JAMB Score multiplied by 0.8) + (O'Level grade points multiplied by 0.2)

In practical terms: - A candidate with a JAMB score of 250 has 80% of that counting towards their ranking: 250 x 0.8 = 200 points (out of a possible 320 maximum) - O'Level grades contribute the remaining 20%

Worked illustration: - JAMB score: 250. Multiply by 0.8 = 200 - O'Level score (calculated from grade points): assume 20 out of a maximum 25 = 20 x 0.2 = 4 - Approximate weighted score = 204

The exact O'Level grade conversion table used by LAUTECH is published on the admission portal. The key takeaway is clear: your JAMB score is the dominant figure. Every additional point you scored above 170 in JAMB directly and significantly improves your standing relative to other candidates in your department.

How to Apply for the LAUTECH Post UTME Form Online

Here is what the LAUTECH Post UTME registration process involves:

• Confirm that your JAMB score is 170 and above and that LAUTECH appears as your first-choice institution on JAMB CAPS. If it does not, complete a change of institution at any JAMB-accredited CBT centre before registering
• Visit the official LAUTECH admission portal and click on the Post UTME registration link
• Generate your payment invoice through the portal
• Pay the N7,000 total fee (N2,000 screening fee + N5,000 portal access fee) using an Interswitch-enabled debit card
• Complete the online application form with accurate personal, academic, and course information
• Upload a recent passport photograph
• Submit your application and print your Post UTME registration slip
• Ensure your O'Level results are uploaded to JAMB CAPS before August 2, 2026

Candidates who are awaiting WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB results must upload their results to JAMB CAPS by June 26, 2026. This is earlier than the general deadline and must not be missed.

Login to LAUTECH Admission Portal — What You Need to Know

The LAUTECH admission and student portal handles all registration, fee payment, result checking, and academic activities. For new Post UTME applicants, the portal login is created using your JAMB registration number and a password set during the profile creation process.

When logging in, use the credentials generated during your registration. If you forget your password, use the password reset option available on the portal. Do not share your login details with anyone, and avoid accessing the portal from public computers or networks.

Returning students log in using their matriculation number and assigned password. Fresh admitted students begin with their JAMB registration details before being assigned a matriculation number after clearance.

O'Level Results Deadline — A Date Many Candidates Miss

One of the most common reasons candidates lose admission at LAUTECH is failing to upload O'Level results to JAMB CAPS before the stated deadline. For the 2026/2027 session:

• Candidates already holding O'Level results must upload to JAMB CAPS before August 2, 2026
• Candidates awaiting WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB results must upload by June 26, 2026

Any candidate who does not upload O'Level results by the applicable deadline will not be considered for admission, regardless of JAMB score or screening status. This is non-negotiable.

What Happens After Applying for LAUTECH Post UTME?

Since LAUTECH does not conduct a written aptitude test for UTME candidates, the process after registration is straightforward:

• After the portal closes on September 3, LAUTECH reviews all submitted applications
• The 80-20 formula is applied to rank candidates within each department
• Admission lists are processed through JAMB CAPS in batches — merit list, catchment list, and discretionary list
• Candidates who receive admission offers on JAMB CAPS must accept within 4 weeks of the offer being uploaded, or the admission is automatically withdrawn
• After accepting on JAMB CAPS, candidates complete acceptance procedures on the LAUTECH portal and pay the acceptance fee
• Clearance, documentation verification, and course registration follow on campus

Direct Entry candidates who attend the August 24 to 25 campus interview are ranked separately and receive admission decisions through the same JAMB CAPS system.

Installment payment is allowed. Students must pay at least 40 to 50% of fees to be eligible for semester examinations. Full payment is strongly advised. Late payment attracts penalty charges.
