The Federal Ministry of Education has released admissions into Federal Unity Colleges across Nigeria through a fully automated admission process
According to a statement released last Tuesday by the Director of Press and Public Relations, Boriowo Folasade, the initiative aimed to enhance transparency, efficiency, and capacity management in secondary school placements.
Folasade said the reform was spearheaded by the Education Minister, Dr. Tunji Alausa, to ensure admissions align with each school’s approved capacity and address past issues of overcrowded facilities.
The statement said that ”The initiative, driven by the Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Tunji Alausa, ensures that all admissions are now fully automated and strictly conducted within the approved capacity of each school, eliminating previous challenges of overstretched facilities.”
The statement quoted Alausa to have said that the “reform guarantees fairness, operational efficiency, and sustained quality in our Federal Unity Colleges.”
The current admission cycle covers 80 conventional Federal Unity Colleges for Junior Secondary School one.
Admissions for the 42 Federal Technical Colleges under the Technical and Vocational Education and Training programme will be announced later.
Director of Senior Secondary Education, Hajia Binta Abdulkadri, described the automation as a “game-changer,” noting “it streamlines the process, enhances accountability, and fosters better learning environments by matching admissions to school capacities.”
“The new system ensures that admission aligns with each school’s capacity, creating a better learning environment for students.
“This reform is expected to streamline the admission process, improve accountability, and uphold the highest educational standards across Federal Unity Colleges nationwide,” she said.
The statement added that parents and students could check results on the ministry’s official website.
The Ministry reaffirmed its commitment to delivering quality education in safe, conducive environments for all Nigerian children.
