JAMB New Admission Policy Reverted

JAMB has reversed its earlier decision of stopping some candidates from writing the Post-UTME of their First choice institutions especially in cases where the institution of choice received a high number of applicants during the JAMB UTME. Schools like UNILAG, UNN, UI, UNICAL and other popular schools had already adopted the list sent to them by JAMB for their Post UTME screening examinations.

With this new development candidates can now participate in the post-UTME screening of their First choice institutions, provided they reached the cut-off of the institution, as well as the Post-UTME of the school to which JAMB has reassigned them considering the fact that such schools will be less competitive. The choice is yours

Candidates can check to know the new schools (which is less competitive) that JAMB has re-assigned them to by following the procedures on the link below:

Candidates who were previously unable to find their names among the list of eligible candidates for their first choice institution's Post-UTME screening are advised to keep checking as their names are likely to be updated any time soon.

JAMB Admission Policy Overruled By FG

The Federal Government has overruled the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board on its new admission policy that recently sparked protests in parts of the country.

The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, Mr. MacJohn Nwaobiala, disclosed this to State House correspondents on Tuesday after briefing President Muhammadu Buhari of his ministry's activities and challenges at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

He said because of the dust raised by the development, the Federal Government had commenced consultation with the aim of identifying where adjustments could be made.

He however said students that made the cut off marks had been directed to go and write post-UTME examinations in their schools of first choice since that was the bone of contention.
