No! Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA) does not offer admission to candidates that make them second choice. In other words, to gain admission into the prestigious FUTA, you must make the university your first choice of institution in JAMB.

To support this, the management of FUTA always make it known to aspirations, whenever post UTME application is announced, that admission is only open to candidates that make the university a first choice. So you see, it is actually official. In fact, if you made FUTA your second choice of institution this year, you are actually wasting your time. Nonetheless, if you really want to change the university from your first choice to your second choice or totally replace the university with another school, there is a tentative solution for you. The solution is to apply for JAMB change of course and institution form for just N3,500 only.

JAMB actually understand that candidates are likely to make mistakes when choosing their courses or institution. Thus, they made provision for JAMB change of course and institution form for aspirants. So this could be an opportunity to everyone who made FUTA a second choice to change it. Nonetheless, you must not forget that there is usually a deadline for JAMB change of course and institution form. So, if you really want to get this form, you must apply for it as soon as possible.

Why FUTA don’t accept candidates that make them second choice

First, you will agree with me that FUTA is actually one of the best Federal University of Technology in Nigeria. It has also been recorded that among all the universities in Nigeria, FUTA is one of the most soughed universities. The policy of not accepting candidates that does not make the university a first choice is usually used to reduce the number of students the eventually apply for admission into the university.

This is apparently one of the reasons why the university is does not accept second choice candidates. Restricting admission to only first choice candidates also helps the university to fish out the best candidates out of the thousands of admission seekers that apply for admission every year.
