ABRAKA – Delta State University has announced the complete elimination of its Post UTME examination for the 2025/2026 academic session, marking a significant departure from traditional admission procedures.
New Admission Process
According to an official bulletin released Tuesday, August 19, 2025, prospective candidates for DELSU Post UTME admission 2025 will undergo online screening exclusively, using JAMB and O’Level results for evaluation. The university has emphasized that candidates should no longer prepare for or expect the conventional Post UTME examination.
The decision affects all prospective students seeking DELSU admission 2025 across all faculties and departments.
Rationale Behind the Change

University management cited increasing pressure from criminal elements impersonating staff members as a primary factor in the decision. These individuals have been approaching prospective candidates under false pretenses, potentially exploiting the traditional examination system.
“This reiteration has become necessary given the reported undue pressures being mounted on prospective candidates by yet to be identified criminal elements who claim to either be staff or agents of the University,” the bulletin stated.
