About EKSU
Ekiti State University, popularly known as EKSU, is a top-tier state-owned institution located in Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State.
Unlike universities that write physical entrance tests, EKSU conducts an online Post-UTME screening exercise. This means your final admission score relies purely on your JAMB performance and O’Level grades.
? Is EKSU Post-UTME Form for 2026/2027 Out?
As of May 2026, the official EKSU Post-UTME registration portal for the 2026/2027 academic session has not been opened.
Historically, EKSU starts its screening processes and releases registration guidelines between August and September.
Aspirants are strongly advised to track the institutional boards closely for:
- Official portal opening dates
- Registration deadlines
- Specific O'Level weight allocations
? EKSU 2026/2027 Admission Requirements
To participate smoothly in the digital screening, candidates must fulfill basic universal criteria before the portal goes live:

The scores listed above function as baseline institutional averages. Real thresholds are heavily affected by yearly metrics like general performance margins, course subscription volumes, and constraints on departmental department carrying capacities.
? How to Prepare Before the Portal Opens
To position your registration ahead of the late summer pool, prepare by fulfilling these checkmarks:
- Re-verify Bios: Cross-check names, order of arrangement, and dates of birth across your WAEC/NECO certificates and JAMB profiles to prevent verification stalls.
- Evaluate Choice Position: Log into your JAMB dashboard and make sure EKSU is designated strictly as your First Choice.
- Calculate Your O'Level Core: Since grading combines school cert points directly with exam scores, ensure you have strong A/B/C grades in your core department tracks.
