The Admission Office of Joseph Sarwuan Tarka University, Makurdi (JOSTUM)—formerly known as the Federal University of Agriculture, Makurdi—has announced that candidates who received offers for the 2026/2027 academic session must confirm their admission and settle the required acceptance fee no later than 27 October 2026.

Important Information for Admitted Candidates

All prospective students whose offers appear on the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) Central Admission Processing System (CAPS) are required to complete the following actions before the cut‑off date.

• Accept the admission offer through JAMB CAPS.
• Pay the stipulated acceptance fee within the allotted time.
• Complete every remaining admission requirement prior to the deadline.

The acceptance must be recorded on the CAPS portal, where candidates will receive a confirmation tick once the step is finished. The fee, payable through the university’s designated banking channels, should be reflected in the payment verification system before the deadline.

Failure to Meet the Deadline

The university cautions that any candidate who does not both accept the offer and remit the fee by the stated date will have the admission offer withdrawn for the 2026/2027 session. Applicants are therefore urged to act swiftly to safeguard their place.

The notice bears the signature of the Registrar and originates from the university’s Admission Office.

Prospective enrollees should ensure that their acceptance and payment are finalized before 27 October 2026 to avoid losing their admission.
