Professor Arayela said the Institution has made adequate arrangement for a hitch free exercise advising candidates and their guardians to obey all rules and regulations guiding the exercise assuring them that the selection process will be merit driven.

”We are set for the screening exercise, we’ve made adequate arrangements and by the Grace of God everything would run smoothly as in the previous years. As an institution, we have established a tradition of excellence and merit in FUTA and this will guide the final selection of candidates who will ultimately secure admission into any of our 43 academic programmes, ”Professor Arayela said.
