The University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT) has released its admission list for the 2026/2027 academic session and candidates who applied for admission can now check whether they have been offered a place.
At this time, the stated route for checking UNIPORT admission status is through JAMB CAPS.
How to Check UNIPORT Admission List on JAMB CAPS
Applicants can confirm their admission status through the JAMB CAPS portal guide and JAMB EFacility.
The checking process is as follows:
- Open the JAMB EFacility portal.
- Log in with the candidate's JAMB username and password.
- Select Check Admission Status.
- Select Access my CAPS.
- Open Admission Status to see whether UNIPORT has offered admission.
Candidates should read the response displayed on CAPS because the message shown determines the next action.
JAMB CAPS Not Displaying Properly on a Phone
Some candidates using JAMB CAPS on a phone may see only a welcome screen instead of the full CAPS options.
Chrome users can open the browser menu and select Request desktop site. The full CAPS page should then load so the admission section can be accessed.

JAMB CAPS may display different responses while an admission is being processed.
