2023 UTME applications Fees

2023 Direct Entry applications Fees

Foreign Centres: $20

The board has resolved to make henceforth the UTME and DE Registration process cashless to put a stop to acts of extortion.

As already effected for UTME and DE exercise, the board would be collecting the approved ₦700 registration fee, ₦1000 CBT (examination) fee and ₦1000 mock UTME service charge on behalf of the various computer-based test (CBT) centres along with its UTME Registration Fees and then remit weekly whatever is due to each registration centre. ( i.e. there will be 2 pins available: ₦6,700 – UTME application document with mock or ₦5,700 without mock UTME) as shown above.

Note:

Candidates should not apply for UTME and DE at the same time. If any candidate applies through UTME and later obtain DE qualification, the UTME can be upgraded to DE at no cost.

On the other hand it is a sanctionable offence to obtain two application documents in the same year. Double/multiple registrations attract outright cancellation and prosecution.
