The reason why cutoff marks are gotten b4 admission list is published is to enable the aspirants know their fate so they can start to plan early enough. If you didn't reach the cutoff mark of your department as posted earlier, it will be wise for you to start making your plan B. An erudite once said that when you make your plans multiple, there's every chance that one will surely work for you. I know many believe they will still see their names in the merit list even though they didn't reach the supposed cutoffmarks known now, Well I believe that too but it will be better to be surprised than to be disappointed. 

 No course is superior or better than another!! Every course has its own good sides and bad sides.. You can imagine someone who graduates as a doctor today and never get fulfilled in life, always struggling with his/her happiness, stressed up at work and always having the face of one who has had a trailer run over him/her. You can be successful in anything you commit yourself to do and enjoy doing. And who says you can't still be where you wish to be if you be somewhere else now? Most of us came in from somewhere else, and that has actually helped us to know what the other side means and also appreciate it. Shopping into another department/faculty is way of making a plan B work. Never hesitate to take that bold step when the time comes. You haven't really deviated from God's plan for your life by doing so... It is an opportunity!! 

When it is time, we shall help most of you with which to shop into and your chances of being admitted based on statistics. What ever happens, always know that God loves you and has a plan for you.... Plans for good and not of evil! Plans to bring you the expected ending(fulfilment) 

MAKE YOUR PLAN B

*Shopping 

*Quota(many u do not know.. U can p. chat me) 

*Long leg

*JUPEB

*OTHERS.. which you can still check out for yourself

UNN admission secrets

UNN admission secrets

As we await d cutoff marks(which are not always made available) and probably the merit list, let us use this time well; to pray and to plan. How much u plan will determine whether or not you would be admitted if your aggregate happens not to be up to the cutoff mark of the department you are aspiring for.
If you miss the merit list, you can still get admitted even to your dream course. There are lots of admission secrets and if time permits us during that period, we will unveil the ones known to us.... Just know for now that UNN staff quotas isn't d only quotas available for admission. There are a good number of them and I will list the ones I know here later.
Be optimistic but don't be stupid!!
How The Lists Will Be Released:
* primary list - This will have the names of those whose average are greater than or equal to their aspiring departmental cutoff marks. There are departmental merit cutoff mark and departmental State cutoff marks which varies from State to Sate depending on d number of aspirants from such state and the percentage of persons allocated to each State.
* 1st supplementary list - This is basically for those who shopped into another department and also aspirants who are using special quotas(staff + others). Aspirants whose average are very close to the cutoff mark of their department could also be considered.
* 2nd supplementary list - this is usually the main list which is based on discretionary. Here ppl who are rich can buy their way through. Ppl who have long leg can also be admitted here.
* and others, as many as they deemed fit to release.
NB:
- 2nd supplementary list and others following it can be compressed into one list depending on the time available.
- the last list popularly known as the VC list is not always the list used for discretion by the VC. He can use any one ranging from the 2nd to the last but most likely, the third.
- people who come in through the 1st list do not always end up the best. When you all are finally admitted, you all become the same.. It will now take someone who wants sth special to work for it ... Your High score in jamb will no longer be effective
- There's nothing wrong in asking somebody for help or paying some amount for admission. It is not perculier with UNN, it is done in every university in the world. Many of us would want our kids to study in Harvard one day, and it means that if we have the money, we'll pay their way in. What is wrong is graduating ppl who are not qualified!!
