Abuja —The Federal Ministry of Education and other
stakeholders in the tertiary education sub-sector
have agreed on N2,500 as the fee for post-Unified
Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME,
screening.
This is contained in a statement issued by Prof.
Michael Faborode, the Secretary-General,
Association of Vice-Chancellors of Nigerian
Universities, AVCNU, yesterday in Abuja.
Faborode said the agreement was reached after a
deliberation of officials of the ministry, federal
universities, polytechnics and colleges of
education.
The secretary-general said it was agreed that the
post-UTME screening should be sustained following
the scrapping of the Computer Based Test, CBT.
“From the statement signed by the Permanent
Secretary, Dr Folashade Yemi-Esan at the meeting,
there is no objection to screening by universities as
long as it is not another CBT.
“She agreed that universities should advertise and
the maximum fee that should be charged for the
screening should be N2,500 - bank charges
inclusive.”
According to the statement, the association will
formally convey its stance to the Minister of
Education, Malam Adamu Adamu.
Adamu’s recent announcement of the ban on post-
UTME had raised anxiety among stakeholders.
