UNIMAID Extends Deadline for Profile Updates and Course Registration to October 20 2026; The University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID) has extended the deadline for mandatory undergraduate profile updates and course registration to Tuesday, October 20, 2026.
The university management has directed all undergraduate students to complete the online exercise and submit the required printed forms to their respective departments before the registration portal closes.
The extension follows management’s observation that many students still have incomplete profiles and outstanding course registrations.
Students are required to complete the exercise through the UNIMAID registration portal.
UNIMAID Profile Update and Course Registration Steps
All undergraduate students are expected to complete the following steps before the deadline.
1. Update Personal Information and Upload Required Documents
Students must update their personal information on the portal and upload scanned copies of the following documents:
- Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) admission letter.
- O’Level results.
- Primary school certificate.
- Indigene form.
Students must also upload an appropriate photograph. Casual, stylised or fashion photographs are not permitted.
2. Provide an Electronic Signature
Students must provide their signatures using either of the following methods:
- Sign directly on the portal using the digital signature pad on a mobile device.
- Upload a clear scanned copy of a handwritten signature written strictly in black ink.
3. Change the Default Portal Password
Students are required to change their default portal passwords immediately and replace them with secure passwords.
Management has warned students against sharing their login details with third parties or cyber café operators. Each student remains personally responsible for protecting their account and ensuring the security of their login information.
4. Complete Semester Course Registration
After updating their profiles and uploading the required documents, students must complete and submit their semester course registration online.
They should ensure that the registration process is completed successfully before proceeding to print the required forms.
5. Print and Submit the Required Forms
Upon completing the online registration, students must print the following documents:
- Completed Bio-Data Form.
- Final Course Registration Form.
Both forms must be submitted physically to the Head of Department (HOD) for the student’s department.
Completing the online process alone is not sufficient; students must also submit the printed documents before the deadline.
UNIMAID Warns of Withdrawal for Failure to Meet the Deadline
The university management has issued a strong warning to undergraduate students who fail to comply with the directive.
According to the notice, any undergraduate who fails to complete the required profile updates, document uploads, password security measures, course registration and departmental submission by October 20, 2026, will be automatically withdrawn from the university.

Students are therefore advised to treat the deadline seriously and ensure that every required step is completed before the portal closes.
