According to the Vice chancellor of the university, Professor Abdulganiyu Ambali, only 7,800 of those that sat for its Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) will get in.
He told newsmen that 30, 384 of the candidates are in contention for admission after scoring 50% and above in the Post-UTME.
Ambali however noted that the university has written to the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), through the National Universities Commission (NUC) to increase its admission quota because it has the capacity to admit more students.
