The board stated that CAPS is now fully operational and encouraged institutions to accelerate their admission procedures to recover lost time and meet the agreed deadlines. Candidates are advised to promptly accept admission offers and upload or verify their credentials following the release of the 2026 National Examinations Council Senior School Certificate Examination results. The deadline for public universities is October 31, 2026, while private universities have until November 30, 2026.",
