The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), postponed the commencement of the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) registration to Monday, February 3.
Originally scheduled to begin on Friday, January 31, the registration was delayed to allow for “essential adjustments to its registration templates,” according to a statement issued by JAMB’s Public Communication Advisor, Fabian Benjamin, via the Board’s official X handle on Friday.
“These adjustments come in light of the recent suspension of certain law programmes at selected universities, as submitted to the Board by the Council for Legal Education,” the statement read.
Additionally, JAMB uncovered that some Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres had obtained approval through deceptive means, necessitating further scrutiny and the disqualification of such centres.
Acknowledging the inconvenience caused to candidates and stakeholders, the Board apologized, assuring that the extra time would be used to ensure a seamless registration process.
Further updates are expected.
