Why This Matters
- FUTMINNA verifies your O'Level claims through JAMB CAPS
- Applications without uploaded results may be rejected
- You cannot gain admission if results aren't on JAMB
What to Do
If your O'Level results aren't on JAMB CAPS:
- Visit any JAMB-accredited CBT centre immediately
- Bring your O'Level scratch card or certificate
- Pay the verification fee (typically around ₦500-₦1,000)
- Allow the centre staff to upload your results
- Verify the upload was successful before leaving
Change of Course Option
FUTMINNA offers flexibility for candidates with subject combination issues:
If you meet the minimum score but lack proper subject combinations, you may be allowed to change to a course that matches your subjects.
Example Scenarios
- Scored 180 but took Arts subjects → Can change from Engineering to Arts program
- Good JAMB score but missing required O'Level subject → Switch to compatible department
Contact FUTMINNA admissions office if you need guidance on changing courses.
