UNILAG Online Post UTME Screening Guidelines 2025/2026
The University of Lagos has announced the online Post-UTME screening for 2025/2026. Candidates must follow the rules, prepare their laptops, and join the mock exam in August. Read on for full instructions, dates, and tips to avoid disqualification.
It’s that season again. The University of Lagos is rolling out its Post-UTME screening for the 2025/2026 academic session. And this time, like last year, it is strictly online. The exam may only last thirty minutes, but those thirty minutes can feel like forever if you slip on one tiny rule. So here’s a breakdown, told plain and straight, of what you need to know.
The Ground Rules
Think of this test like stepping into a quiet exam hall, only that your hall is your room.
- Device matters: Only laptops with built-in webcams and microphones are allowed. Forget your phone, it won’t even work.
- Be seen: No covering the webcam. If the system can’t see you, you risk being disqualified.
- Stay put: Once you start, you cannot stand up, stretch, or step out. Your thirty minutes starts ticking the moment you click that start button.
- No extras: Masks, face caps, headphones, or external cameras? Don’t even try it.
- Alone means alone: Even a sibling passing behind you could cost you the test. Be wise, clear the room.
- Good light: Don’t sit in the dark. If the camera can’t catch your face clearly, the system might kick you out.
One slip, and that could be it. The rules are not bendy, no long story.
How to Log In
There are three doors, but all lead to the same exam hall:
- Use the “Go to WebTest” button on the UNILAG portal.
- Use the “Click Here To Take Exam” button from your email.
- Or go straight to unilag.proctee.webtest.ng with your UTME number as username and your surname in lowercase as password.
From there, it’s a three-step dance:
- Hit “Take Exam” and follow the instruction page.
- Download and install the safe exam browser (only the version stated will work, don’t freestyle).
- Allow all the permissions and click to start.
Windows 8.1 and above? You’re good. Mac users, Ventura OS is your friend.
Mock Exam
This part is not compulsory by force, but honestly, only a stubborn person will skip it. From Monday, August 25 to Wednesday, August 27, 2025, candidates get to run a mock version.
The mock is your chance to:
- Install the exam browser correctly.
- Test your laptop setup.
- Practise under the same conditions you’ll face on the real day.
It’s like playing a friendly match before the league kicks off. Better to miss a step now than on the real day.
Support and Help
Things happen, networks fail, pages freeze. If something goes wrong, there’s a “Need Help?” button both on the login and submission pages. Use it quick, don’t wait till after. Reports are treated faster when made immediately, and updates will come through email or the platform.
For human contact, you can reach UNILAG on:
- Email: postutme@unilag.edu.ng
- Phone: 09053006772 or 08141656802
And for practice, candidates are advised to get the UNILAG Post-UTME past questions. No shame in sharpening your blade before battle.
A Final Note
The Post-UTME is short, sharp, and strict. Read the rules twice, arrange your space, and chase away any disturbance. Remember, even small mistakes can mean wahala. If you keep your head cool, follow the rules, and practise, you’ll cross this bridge without falling into the water.
