Annually, over 1.5 million candidates take the UTME, an entrance examination into Nigerian tertiary institutions.
After passing the Senior School Certificate Examinations (SSCE), individuals seeking admission into Nigerian tertiary institutions are required to pass the computer-based UTME tests with a minimum score usually set by the institutions.
