How to Apply — Step-by-Step Registration
Follow these steps exactly. Use only the official portal.
Step 1: Visit the Official Portal
Go to putme.oouagoiwoye.edu.ng. This is the only authorised portal for OOU Post UTME registration. Do not register through any third-party website or agent.
Step 2: Create Your Profile
Enter your JAMB Registration Number to create a profile. Ensure you use the correct registration number — entering a wrong number makes your application invalid and unrecoverable.
Direct Entry candidates who upgraded from UTME must use the new registration number ending in “1”, not the original UTME number.
Step 3: Complete the Application Form
Fill in all required fields including your personal details, chosen course of study, O’Level results, and contact information. Double-check every entry before proceeding.
Step 4: Generate Invoice and Pay
Generate your payment invoice on the portal. The application fee is ₦2,000 (non-refundable). Payment is made online through the portal. Keep your payment receipt — you will need it for any follow-up enquiries.
Step 5: Upload Documents
Upload the required documents as prompted. Ensure your O’Level result is already uploaded to JAMB CAPS. Failure to upload O’Level results on CAPS may affect your admission consideration regardless of your screening score.
Step 6: Submit and Print Your Screening Pass
After successful payment and form completion, submit your application and print your Screening Pass. Your exam date, time, batch, and seat number will be on this pass. Print at least two copies and keep them safe.
What Happens After the Screening
Once the CBT screening concludes, OOU processes all results together with JAMB scores and O’Level grades to compute an aggregate score. Successful candidates receive admission offers through both the OOU portal and JAMB CAPS.
After admission is offered:
- Accept your offer on JAMB CAPS within the specified window
- Pay your acceptance fee through the OOU student portal at portal.oouagoiwoye.edu.ng
- Complete your clearance and course registration before the deadline
Monitor both the OOU portal and your JAMB CAPS dashboard regularly. Admission offers are time-sensitive — candidates who do not accept within the window may lose their place.
