I applied for medicine in UNN and I did a change of course to pharmacy recently, but it hasn’t yet reflected, and my post utme exam registration is out and I can’t register yet due to not seeing the reflection yet…I don’t want to miss my admission, what should I do?
I understand JOSHUA, as the change of course may not be as fast as you would have hoped.
But all you can do now is wait for the change to reflect.
Alternatively, you can visit any JAMB office closest to you, to confirm what might be the cause of the delay.
Can a university allow you use your 2021 Utme result to apply for their 2022 post utme after change of institution?
No Excel, UTME result can only be used for the year it was written.
What if the institution you want to change to has stopped selling forms for post utme?
Then there is no point applying for change to that institution.
Good day,Pls can one still change couse and institution after changing course twice and institution once.
