FUTIA Admission List 2025/2026 — Steps, Meaning, and What Follows
Federal University of Technology, Ikot Abasi (FUTIA) has announced the 2025/2026 admission list. Applicants can now confirm their admission status on both the FUTIA and JAMB CAPS portals. Please read through for full checking steps, required documents, and registration dates.
It’s that time again. The air feels heavy with both nerves and joy as the FUTIA Admission List finally drops for the 2025/2026 academic year. You can almost hear the collective sigh of relief across hostels and homes. For some, this is the long-awaited “yes” after months of refreshing pages and clutching hope like a lifeline. For others, it’s a moment to brace for what comes next.
Let’s talk about what this means, how to check it, and the steps to take once you see your name smiling back at you.
How To Check The FUTIA Admission List
Here’s the thing — the list is out, and there are two ways to find your name. You can either check through the FUTIA Portal or through JAMB CAPS. Both give you the same result, so pick whichever suits you best.
Checking via JAMB CAPS Portal
Follow these steps carefully:
- Go to the JAMB E-Facility Portal
- Log in with your JAMB username and password
- Scroll till you see Check Admission Status
- Click Access my CAPS
- Tap Admission Status to see if your name made the cut
If you’re using a phone, you might not see everything on the screen at first glance. No stress. Open Chrome, click the options icon, and pick Request Desktop Site. It’ll show the full page. Easy.
Checking via FUTIA Portal
You can also check directly on the FUTIA Admission Portal. Once logged in, your admission status will be displayed there too. Whichever way you go, the result is the same.
Understanding What You See on JAMB CAPS
Now, JAMB CAPS gives different messages. Here’s how to make sense of them:
- Admission Offered: Big congratulations! JAMB has confirmed your spot. You can now accept or reject it on CAPS.
- Admission in Progress (AIP): The school has sent your name for final approval. You’re on the waiting lane, but things are moving.
- Recommended: The university has picked you, and JAMB is doing its cross-check.
- Not Admitted: Don’t panic yet. FUTIA releases admission in batches, so yours might be coming in the next one.
- Pending: Your application is still being reviewed. Patience is key here.
What To Do After Getting Admitted
Once you see that sweet “Admission Offered,” it’s time to act fast.
- Send ACCEPT or REJECT to 55019 or 66019 from the phone number you registered with JAMB.
- Print your JAMB Admission Letter.
- Then, hop over to the FUTIA Portal to pay your Acceptance Fee.
Yes, it’s a lot of clicking and logging in, but better do it early than face wahala later.
FUTIA Screening and Registration Details
FUTIA has scheduled its Screening and Registration Exercise at the University Lecture Theatre, Takeoff Campus, Ikot Abasi. It starts on Monday, 6th October and ends on Monday, 20th October, 2025. The time is 9 a.m. daily.

If Your Name Isn’t There Yet
Relax. FUTIA releases its admission list in batches, so if you don’t see your name yet, keep checking your JAMB CAPS regularly. It’s easy to lose patience, but sometimes the system just needs more time to update.
And if after several tries nothing changes, you can visit the Admissions Officer at the university to ask questions directly. No shame in that, abeg.
Stay Alert, Avoid Scams
One small warning, please. FUTIA does not use any admission agents. No one is authorised to collect money outside of the official portal payments. If anyone promises to “help” you with admission for a fee, just know say e be scam. Protect your money and your peace of mind.
A Warm Congratulations
If your name is on that FUTIA Admission List, congratulations. You did it. It’s been a long wait, but now the gates are open, and a new chapter begins. And if your name isn’t there yet, keep faith. Sometimes, good news just takes the next bus.
For any questions, send an email to info@futia.edu.ng.
Welcome, future FUTIA students. The campus is waiting, and so is your story.
