The university emphasised that only candidates who have received admission and generated their admission letters through JAMB CAPS should proceed.

Who Is Eligible to Pay the UI Acceptance Fee?

The payment instruction applies to candidates who have been offered admission into the University of Ibadan for the 2026/2027 academic session.

Before paying, candidates should confirm that their admission offer is genuine and that their JAMB admission letter has been generated.

Candidates who have been offered admission but have not generated their admission letters are advised by UI to complete that process before paying the acceptance fee.

Do not pay the ₦50,000 fee simply because you applied to the university or completed Post-UTME screening.

Payment should follow a verified admission offer and the university's official instructions.

How to Pay UI Acceptance Fee for 2026/2027

Newly admitted candidates can follow this general process:

Visit the University of Ibadan's official admission portal: https://admissions.ui.edu.ng/ .

Log in using the credentials required by the portal.

Confirm that your admission details are correct.

Locate the acceptance fee payment instructions on your dashboard.

Follow the authorised payment process displayed by the university.

Complete the required O'Level verification documentation.

Save and print your payment receipt or confirmation once payment is successful.

The exact payment screens may vary. Candidates should follow the instructions displayed on their official UI dashboard.

If a payment appears unsuccessful or pending, verify its status before attempting another transaction.

Documents Required for UI Acceptance Fee Payment

1. O'Level result or results

Candidates should prepare their relevant WAEC or NECO result documents.

2. WAEC or NECO scratch card PIN and serial number

The university requires verification details associated with the O'Level results submitted by the candidate.

Applicants should ensure that the information corresponds to their actual examination records.

Do not disclose examination verification PINs to unofficial agents or upload sensitive records to unfamiliar websites.

UI Warns That ₦50,000 Acceptance Fee Is Non-Refundable

The university has made it clear that the acceptance fee will not be refunded.

This is an important warning for candidates who may be considering payment before confirming their admission details.

Applicants should therefore check their JAMB admission information and official UI dashboard before proceeding.

The ₦50,000 acceptance fee should also not be confused with the university's full tuition or other registration charges.

The University of Ibadan has announced that the acceptance fee payment window runs from 2 November to 30 November 2026 .

As of this publication, OGB Admission Hub has not identified a later official extension notice.

What If Your JAMB Admission Letter Is Not Available?

Candidates who have received admission but cannot generate a JAMB admission letter should first check their CAPS account.

Visit https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/ and log in using your registered JAMB credentials.

Review your admission status and check whether an offer is available for acceptance.

Where the offer has been accepted but the admission letter cannot be generated, use the appropriate JAMB support channel or contact the University of Ibadan for guidance.
