He added that out of the huge number, 20,799 managed to score 200 or above in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOut of these, 12,798 sat for the post-UTME in the University of Ibadan. Among these over 13,000 candidates, only 6,065 scored 50 or above in the post-UTME. From among these, only 4,261 were offered admission based on the rigorous and transparent admission process of the University of Ibadan. Only 6.7 per cent of those who chose the University of Ibadan got admitted \u2013 and you are one of that small number.<\/p>\n<p>He explained further that a total of 3,811 students were offered admission through UTME. He added that a total of 444 students were also offered admission through direct entry, out of 1,978 of them that chose UI, though all of them scored 200 or above in UTME, while the whole of 1,200 of them that sat for post-UTME scored 50 or above.<\/p>\n<p>Adebowale, who entitled his address as \u2018Standing on the Shoulder of Giants\u2019, enjoined the new students to leverage on the experiences of the former students of the institutions, lecturers and good senior students to achieve standard academic and moral excellence.<\/p>\n<p>The matriculation lecture, entitled: \u2018Charting Your Path Diligently\u2019, was delivered by Miss Ifeoluwa Olatayo, who graduated from the institution in 2012 with a cumulative grade of 5.8. She is the founder of Soupah Kitchen. She told the new students that the best time to start building a \u201csolid foundation for a successful academic is now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cImagine if you start reading from the day of your first lecture; two things will most likely happen. The first is a good level of comprehension, which means you are not for the announcement of tests and exams before reading.
