What is Condonement of Illegitimate Admissions?

Condonement is a process where JAMB validates admissions that were initially processed outside the normal CAPS admission system. Students affected are those whose admission was done institutionally but not properly captured on JAMB's Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS).

This approval means affected ATBU students can now obtain legitimate JAMB admission letters and complete their academic records properly.
