The Vice Chancellor of the University of Ibadan (UI), Prof Idowu Olayinka has spoken that the University will admit just 3,000 candidates out of the over 29,000 who scored 200 and above in the 2016 UTME and chose the university as their choice for the 2016/2017 academic session.
He made this known while speaking at the 68th Interdisciplinary Research Discourse of the Postgraduate school.
He further explained factors such as: poor funding, infrastructure deficit, student-lecturer ratio and limitation of Hostel accommodation would not allow the University go beyond its present carrying capacity.
He therefore, urged the Government of the day to fund the universities adequately and fix the infrastructural deficits if it wants her universities to be globally competitive.
