UNIOSUN clarified that the published figures cover both general merit and catchment candidates and that attaining a cut-off mark alone does not secure an offer of admission. Applicants must also fulfil other academic and regulatory conditions set by the university and relevant authorities.

University warns against admission fraudsters

UNIOSUN used the release to caution prospective students against individuals who claim they can manipulate the admission process or guarantee slots in competitive programmes. The university said it would not take responsibility for any financial losses suffered by applicants who deal with unauthorised persons.

The institution's Public Relations Officer, Ademola Adesoji, urged candidates to rely solely on information from official university channels, including the institution's website and verified social media platforms.
