JAMB Grants One-Week Extension: FUNATO Appeals for Change of Institution

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has approved a one-week extension for candidates wishing to change their institution choice to the Federal University of Agriculture and Technology, Oyo (FUNATO). This follows a successful appeal by FUNATO's Vice-Chancellor.

Extension Details

JAMB has granted additional time for prospective candidates to modify their institution selection on the JAMB portal. This temporary window allows students who initially chose other institutions to switch to FUNATO.
