The Federal University of Lafia (FULAFIA), Nasarawa State, has reportedly initiated the uploading of candidate admission decisions onto the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board’s Central Admissions Processing System (JAMB CAPS) for the 2026/2027 academic session.
This development is crucial for all prospective UTME, Direct Entry (DE), Remedial, and IJMB candidates who completed the university’s online post-UTME screening exercise.
Important Admission Upload Notice
University admission uploads occur in progressive batches. If your status currently displays “Not Admitted”or “Admission in Progress,” do not panic. This does not automatically indicate a rejection; candidates are selected and cleared continuously throughout the screening exercise.
