Adeyemi Federal University of Education (AFUED), Ondo has opened its Post-UTME and Direct Entry screening exercise for the 2026/2027 academic session. The university’s official admission notice says eligible applicants can complete the screening application online before Wednesday, 30 September 2026.
The application is open to UTME candidates who scored at least 150 and to Direct Entry candidates who meet the stated NCE or ND qualification threshold. The official notice lists a ₦2,000 non-refundable screening fee and directs applicants to the AFUED admission portal.
At the time of this report on 13 September 2026, the deadline was 17 calendar days away. AFUED has not announced a late-application window in the notice, so candidates should not assume that the portal will remain open after the published closing date.

Who can apply for AFUED Post-UTME?
AFUED’s official notice divides applicants into two main groups:
- UTME candidates: Applicants who scored at least 150 in the 2026 UTME and selected AFUED as their first-choice institution.
- Direct Entry candidates: Applicants who have at least 7 points and at least one Merit Pass in their course of study, with the required NCE or ND records for verification.
If you did not initially choose AFUED as your first choice but now want to apply for a degree programme, the university says you should change your institution of first choice to AFUED before submitting the screening form. Do this through the recognised JAMB change-of-institution process and confirm that the change has been reflected before proceeding.
Meeting the minimum score or qualification makes a candidate eligible to apply; it does not guarantee admission. Final offers depend on the university’s selection process, programme requirements, available places and the central admission process.
Programmes listed in the official AFUED notice
The notice covers a wide range of degree programmes across education, arts, science, management and social sciences. Examples include English Language, History, Music Education, Creative Arts, Yoruba, Agricultural Science Education, Computer Science Education, Mathematics Education, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Accounting, Economics, Library and Information Science, Political Science, Theatre Arts, Linguistics, Special Needs Education, Educational Management and Early Childhood Care and Education.
Applicants should read the university’s own programme and entry requirements carefully before paying. A candidate should not select a course merely because it appears in a general list; the relevant O’Level, NCE, ND or other subject requirements still apply.
How to apply for AFUED Post-UTME/DE screening
- Open the official AFUED undergraduate portal.
- Use the payment option provided for the 2026/2027 screening exercise.
- Pay the ₦2,000 screening fee through the channels stated by the university. The official notice mentions Etranzact or Remita at a commercial bank and also allows online payment by debit or credit card.
- After payment is confirmed, return to the portal and complete the online screening form.
- Enter your personal, UTME and academic details carefully. The university warns that editing may not be possible after submission.
- Upload a clear passport photograph in JPEG format. The notice specifies that the file should not exceed 50KB and should not show the applicant wearing eyeglasses or a veil.
- Upload the required SSCE result and, where applicable, NCE or ND results.
- Review every field, submit the form and print the Post-UTME screening slip.
Keep the payment evidence, application number and printed slip. Save a PDF or clear photo of each document in a secure location in case the university asks for it during screening or later admission processing.
Additional steps for Direct Entry applicants
Direct Entry applicants have extra verification responsibilities. AFUED’s notice says DE candidates must submit hard copies of their NCE or ND results and transcripts to the Directorate of Senate Matters and Admissions. Candidates should follow the university’s instructions on where and when to deliver those documents and should keep a stamped or acknowledged copy where possible.
Uploading a result online does not automatically complete a DE candidate’s verification. Make sure the records on the application form, the uploaded files and the documents submitted to the university agree in name, programme and qualification details.
O’Level and JAMB CAPS requirements
Applicants are expected to provide accurate WAEC, NECO or NABTEB information where requested. AFUED also states that candidates must upload their O’Level results to the JAMB Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS).
If your result is not ready, the university’s notice advises you to wait until it is released before applying. Do not upload a result that belongs to another person or enter grades you cannot verify. Incorrect information can lead to withdrawal of an application or admission, and the university warns that false information may be referred to law-enforcement authorities.
What candidates should do before the 30 September deadline
- Confirm that AFUED is your first-choice institution, or complete the official change-of-institution process if required.
- Check that your UTME score is at least 150 for the degree route, or that you meet the published DE qualification threshold.
- Prepare your JAMB result, SSCE result and any NCE/ND documents before opening the form.
- Use a working email address and phone number. AFUED says it will not be responsible if candidates provide invalid contact details and miss later communication.
- Resize the passport photograph to the stated 50KB limit without making it unclear.
- Pay only through the official portal or the payment channel named in the university notice.
- Print the screening slip immediately after submission and keep the payment receipt.
- Submit before Wednesday, 30 September 2026. No late-application arrangement is stated in the official notice.
How to avoid AFUED admission scams
Use the university’s official website and portal as your starting points. Do not send your JAMB password, email password, OTP, bank PIN or card details to an agent. A person who promises guaranteed admission, a changed score or an “urgent slot” cannot replace the university’s admission process.
Check the web address before making payment. If a payment fails, first confirm the transaction status on the official portal and keep the Remita or Etranzact reference. Do not pay a second time simply because a third party tells you to. Contact AFUED through the admissions details published on its official website if you need to resolve a payment or application problem.
What happens after the screening application?
AFUED says candidates considered prima facie qualified will be contacted in due course. Applicants should therefore monitor the email address and phone number used on the form, check the official university website and keep their JAMB profile active.
The screening form is not an admission letter. After the university makes recommendations, candidates should confirm any offer through the authorised JAMB CAPS/e-Facility route and follow AFUED’s instructions for acceptance, clearance and registration. A payment receipt or screening slip alone does not prove that admission has been granted.
