JAMB unveils registration guidelines for 2026 UTME, , \"\"<\/p>\n

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has released detailed guidelines for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, registration process, along with a list of common challenges candidates may encounter.<\/p>\n

The Board made the announcement via its official X handle on Sunday, saying that the development aims to assist prospective candidates in preparing for the upcoming registration.<\/p>\n

\u201cCandidates should ensure their personal details, including National Identification Number (NIN), email, and A-Level results, are accurate before generating a profile code.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are urged to send their 11-digit NIN to 55019 or 66019 (e.g., NIN 00000011111 to 55019\/66019).<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce a profile code is generated, it cannot be changed, and biodata is automatically retrieved from NIMC.<\/p>\n

\u201cCandidates should then proceed to the nearest JAMB office or any approved CBT Centre to begin registration.<\/p>\n

\u201cE-PINs must be purchased only from authorised channels, such as banks, online platforms, or vendors at the registration centres.<\/p>\n

\u201cEnsure that the correct registration template is provided and all details are accurate before final submission at the centre,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

The Board stressed the importance of accurate data, warning that mismatched information could lead to complications.<\/p>\n

\u201cCandidates should make all necessary corrections with NIMC early and confirm that the changes have been reflected on their portal before registration (e.g., Name, Date of Birth, Gender, State of Origin).<\/p>\n

\u201cGSM numbers and email addresses are unique identifiers; they cannot be changed or shared and must be functional before registration.<\/p>\n

\u201cCandidates who encounter biometric issues during registration should visit the nearest JAMB office. No CBT centre should register a candidate forcefully.<\/p>\n

\u201cEnsure a dual screen is used during registration and confirm that your passport photograph and biometrics are captured correctly,\u201d JAMB added.<\/p>\n
