The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board have given candidates who have generated their profile codes until June 15, 2021, to complete their registration for this year’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination and Direct Entry Examination.

The board asked the candidates to visit specially designated registration centres to complete the registration on Tuesday.

The board said this in a statement issued by its Head of Media, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, on Monday in Abuja.

According to the statement, each candidate posted to any non- JAMB-owned computer-based test (CBT) centre is expected to pay the registration fee of N1,000.

“The candidates who have not registered but have secured the profile codes and initiated the registration process are expected to visit specially designated registration centres to complete the registration on Tuesday, 15th of June, 2021.

“Designated registration centre for each candidate is being forwarded to him/her through the GSM text (SMS) messages and available on the web-site of the Board ( www.jamb.gov.ng) from 12 noon on Monday 14th June, 2021. The identification number on each form given to the candidates has been used to assign the candidates to their registration centres.

“Only candidates who have secured their profile codes are expected to visit the centres while the few who have not yet obtained their NIN or profile codes have been forwarded to NIMC and would be contacted as soon as they are cleared by NIMC.

“Each candidate posted to any non- JAMB owned CBT centre is expected to pay the registration fee of N1000 to such CBT centre.”

The board on May 15, 2021, extended the window for registration for UTME/ DE to the 29th of May, 2021 to accommodate candidates who, largely due to issues related to the newly introduced pre-requisite of National Identification Number (NIN) could not register.

An additional extension of two weeks was made to compile the list of all prospective candidates who for any reason were unable to register before this latest window of grace.
