COVID-19: UNILAG set for non-physical post-UTME test

Vice-Chancellor, University of Lagos, Prof. Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, yesterday, urged Nigerians to assist indigent candidates to get computer tabs, as the university gets set for the non-physical post-UTME test.

Ogundipe said this during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN.

According to him, in the face of the resurgence of the Coronavirus pandemic, all academic activities of the institution, including examinations, would be online.

His words: “We are to conduct our post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (Post-UTME) test on Feb. 15 to Feb. 23; that is, it will run for about nine days.

“This examination is going to be an e-examination such that wherever the candidates are, they do not need to come to campus. It is simple and convenient.

“We looked at the issue of indigent candidates; we then decided to see how we can carry them along. Right now, we have started talking to some friends of the university and alumni to see how we can get tablets that we can give them.

“We have got the number of these indigent candidates registered for the post-UTME test, and they are above 200.

Ogundipe said that the candidates would need the tablets not just for the post-UTME test but also to facilitate other e-learning processes.

We are talking to the alumni president and friends of the university to get these tablets to facilitate e-learning processes”, he said.

He said that over 50,000 candidates applied for admission into the university in the 2020)2021 academic session, with about 22,000 scoring 200 marks and above.

According to him, 21,955 candidates have so far paid for the conduct of the post-UTME test.

It is the first time that we are conducting this type of examination, and it is such that these candidates must have their laptops with cameras.

“If they do not have a camera attached to their laptops, they will not be allowed to participate in the examination.

“We expect the results to come out within one week.
