The Federal Government has announced that candidates seeking admission into colleges of education will no longer be required to sit for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.

Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, disclosed this on Monday in Abuja at the admission policy meeting for the 2026 academic session.

He said applicants with at least four credit passes in relevant subjects are now eligible to apply directly to colleges of education.
