which involves the Minister of Education and all
stakeholders in the sector, the 2018 admission
guidelines would be discussed and approved for

Matriculation Examination (UTME) and DE.
“Therefore, candidates who are still interested
and want to apply for the DE should use the
window period of seven days to apply, as no
