- Log in using your JAMB username and password.

Meaning of UNIZIK Admission Status Messages on JAMB CAPS
Candidates may see different admission messages when they check JAMB CAPS. These messages do not all mean the same thing.
Admission Offered
If your JAMB CAPS shows Admission Offered, it means JAMB has approved your admission.
Candidates who receive this status can proceed to accept or reject the admission offer through the available JAMB admission acceptance process.
If you want to take up the admission, you should accept it and proceed with the required next steps.
Admission in Progress
Admission in Progress, sometimes displayed as AIP, means that the University has recommended the candidate for admission.
However, the admission has not yet reached the final approval stage. The recommendation is awaiting approval from the appropriate authorities, including the head of the school and JAMB.
Candidates with this status should continue checking their JAMB CAPS for updates.
Recommended
A Recommended status means the candidate’s application has met the University’s admission criteria and has been recommended for admission.
However, JAMB’s final review is still required before the admission can become an official admission offer.
Candidates with this status should continue monitoring their CAPS.
Not Admitted
If CAPS displays Not Admitted, it means the candidate has not been offered admission at that point.
However, this does not necessarily mean that the admission process is completely over. The University may still release additional admission lists, or the candidate’s admission status may change as the admission process continues.
Candidates should therefore continue checking JAMB CAPS and monitoring UNIZIK’s admission updates.
Pending
A Pending status means the candidate’s admission application is still being processed.
Candidates whose status is pending should continue checking JAMB CAPS for any changes.
What to Do After UNIZIK Offers You Admission
Candidates whose JAMB CAPS status changes to Admission Offered are required to respond to the admission offer.
They can either accept or reject the admission through the approved JAMB process.
There are two methods outlined for responding to the offer.
Accept or Reject Admission Through Biometrics
Candidates can accept or reject their admission offer through biometrics at an approved JAMB CBT centre.
The candidate will complete the required admission response process using the biometric verification procedure.
Accept or Reject Admission Through SMS
Candidates can also respond to the admission offer by sending:
ACCEPT
or
REJECT
to 55019 or 66019.
The SMS should be sent using the phone number linked to the candidate’s JAMB profile.
Candidates should ensure they use the correct registered phone number when responding through SMS.
Print Your JAMB Admission Letter
After accepting the UNIZIK admission offer, candidates can proceed to print their JAMB Admission Letter.
The admission letter serves as an official document confirming the admission and should be kept safely for subsequent admission and registration processes.
How to Check UNIZIK Admission Status on a Mobile Phone
Candidates who are checking their admission status with a mobile phone may sometimes discover that the full JAMB CAPS page does not display correctly.
If this happens, candidates can switch their mobile browser to Desktop Mode.
For candidates using Google Chrome, open the browser menu and select Request Desktop Site.
The full CAPS interface should then become available, allowing the candidate to access the admission status section.
What Candidates Still Waiting for UNIZIK Admission Should Do
Not every candidate will receive Admission Offered immediately.
Candidates whose CAPS status shows Admission in Progress, Recommended, Not Admitted, or Pending should continue checking their admission status.
UNIZIK may release additional admission batches during the admission process. Therefore, candidates who have not yet received an admission offer should continue monitoring both JAMB CAPS and UNIZIK’s official admission updates.
A candidate whose status currently shows Not Admitted should also avoid assuming that no further opportunity exists, as subsequent admission lists may be released.
