JAMB conducts the Universities Matriculation Examination (UME) and sends the results of the students, who have passed the UME, in electronic form (Excel file on CD) directly to the universities. Students check their results online on the JAMB website. Students who have passed the UME can then apply online for the Post University Matriculation Examination (PUME) conducted by Uniben directly on the PUME Application website.

| 190 | II Returning Students
|
|---|
| 191 | ---------------------
|
|---|
| 192 |
|
|---|
| 193 | Returning Students enter the above described admission and registration process at Step 11 (Hostel Allocation). They log in with their Matriculation Number and their Password (Step R1). Before they can apply for accommodation or register new courses their previous session result must have been uploaded online by the Course Adviser (Step R2). Only Categories A (passed all courses) and B (passed some but have some carryovers) are eligible to register for a new level in the new session and also to apply for accommodation. The students print out the *Sessional Result Slip*. A Student is not allowed to see his scores but rather the grade and Sessional GPA. The Result Slip however also shows the student's name, matric number, registration number, course of study, faculty, session and level.

|
|---|
| 198 |
|
|---|
| 199 | Steps 11 - 13 are then identical. Only during course registration the so-called 'carryovers', i.e. the courses that were failed in the previous session, are picked up by the system and listed first.
|

|
|---|
| 201 |
|
|---|
| 202 | III Direct Entry
|
|---|
| 203 | ----------------
|
|---|
| 204 |
|
|---|
| 205 | Direct Entry (DE) Students bypass Step 1 - 4. The Excel Data sheet from JAMB is directly sent to the Admission board. The following procedure is identical as the one for the UME Students.
|
|---|
| 206 |
|
|---|
| 207 | IV Local Programme Entry
|
|---|
| 208 | ------------------------
|
|---|
| 209 |
|
|---|
| 210 | For admission into Diploma (full and part time), Degree (part time) and Post graduate programmes (full and part time) students can bypass the JAMB admission procedure and apply directly at the university. Only the entry examination (Step 2) then differs and is called *Local Programme Examination*. The Local Programme Application Form is combined with the PUME Application Form (Step 1). However, the application for this requires their results to be added; scanned unlike Post UME where the result is scanned and added after the student has been admitted. ???
