DOES EKSU ACCEPT SECOND CHOICE FOR ADMISSION?
No — Ekiti State University (EKSU) does not accept second-choice candidates for admission. To be considered for admission into EKSU, you must have selected the university as your first choice during JAMB registration.
While EKSU may allow candidates who didn’t initially pick the university to participate in Post-UTME/ screening, this is only after they change their choice to EKSU as their first choice on the JAMB CAPS portal.
In other words: even if a candidate scores above the cut-off mark, they will not be offered admission by EKSU if the university remains their second choice on JAMB.
