2. PHYSICAL SCREENING: Some schools, instead of demanding your documents upload online, will rather ask you to present your document physically in the school premises or any other designated venue at a specific date which will be communicated to all the candidates who applied to the school.

However, for some schools, even after uploading your details online, will still demand that you come physically to the school for screening.

All you need to do is to visit the school on a specific date and go through the screening exercise. The screening comprises mainly of checking your results and relevant documents to be sure it is the same with the one you uploaded. 

3. APTITUDE TEST/INTERVIEW SCREENING: Based on directives from JAMB this method of screening should only be for Direct Entry (DE) candidates. However, despite the fact that JAMB has directed institutions to stop conducting exams or any form of test for UTME candidates as a means of screening them for admission, some schools, mostly private universities still do so.
