OOU, Olabisi Onabanjo University in Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, Nigeria, has given clear dates for the closure of the 2025/2026 admission exercise.

This guide restates the notice in simple terms so that students can see what to do, when to do it, and what happens if any step is missed. Every date and step comes from the official message of the university management.

Brief outline of the OOU 2025/2026 admission exercise

For the 2025/2026 academic session, the management of Olabisi Onabanjo University has:

• Fixed a date for the matriculation ceremony.
• Fixed a final deadline for all payments by newly admitted students.
• Stated when the matriculation list will be sent to JAMB.
• Stated what happens to any candidate who does not complete all required actions before the deadline.

Key OOU admission dates for 2025/2026

Students should pay close attention to these official dates:

1. University matriculation ceremony
   • Date: Tuesday, 16 December 2025
   • Event: Matriculation ceremony for newly admitted candidates.
2. Final deadline for all payments
   • Date: Friday, 28 November 2025
   • Payments: Acceptance fee and school fees for admitted candidates.
3. Sending of matriculation list to JAMB
   • Date: Tuesday, 2 December 2025
   • Action: The university will send the matriculation list to JAMB in line with the 2025/2026 JAMB admission guidelines, which require two weeks’ notice before the matriculation ceremony.

Payments every new OOU student must complete

Every candidate who has been offered admission needs to complete two key payments before the closing date:

• Acceptance fee
• School fees

These payments must be fully made on or before Friday, 28 November 2025. Part payment, delay, or waiting past the date will affect a candidate’s place on the matriculation list.

JAMB CAPS steps for admitted candidates

Some candidates have already seen their offer of admission on JAMB CAPS but may not have completed all the steps. The management expects the following actions from such candidates:

1. Log in to JAMB CAPS and accept the admission offer.
2. Print the JAMB admission letter as proof of confirmed admission.
3. Pay the acceptance fee for the course offered.
4. Pay the school fees in full before the deadline.

All these actions must be completed before Friday, 28 November 2025. Any candidate who stays on “offered” status without clicking “accept” on JAMB CAPS, or who fails to pay the required fees, will not be treated as a fully registered student for the 2025/2026 session.

What happens if a candidate misses the deadline

The management has stated the effect of missing the payment deadline in clear terms:

• Any candidate who does not pay the acceptance fee and school fees on or before Friday, 28 November 2025 will not be included in the matriculation list.
• Any candidate who fails to complete the required steps will lose the admission offer for the 2025/2026 academic session.

This means that late payment or no payment leads to loss of admission, even if the candidate once saw an offer on JAMB CAPS.
