The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has commenced the sale of Direct Entry Forms nationwide and in selected foreign centers.
A statement by the JAMB Spokesperson Fabian Benjamin, said the registration process starts on Wednesday, 28th February , and closes on Thursday, 28th March
The statement noted that the sale of the JAMB Direct Entry form is also open to foreign candidates desirous of tertiary education in Nigeria.
He said the Board will continue to ensure a level playing field for all candidates irrespective of status.
According to him, the Board would not process candidates’ applications from all awarding institutions that have refused to honor several requests for the verification of their A’level certificates presented by some candidates for the 2023 admission.
He added that the Board has equally given a window of opportunity for upgrading from UTME to DE with a provision for only candidates whose DE results have not been released at the point of UTME registration and who must have indicated at the point of registration that he/she is awaiting A’level results.
“Candidates who are not awaiting results must have uploaded their A’ level qualifications, O’level results, and DE registration template at the point of registration as no DE candidates would be processed for admission until such claimed results are uploaded and verified by the awarding institutions on the Board’s Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) mail platform.
“Statement of results (instead of certificate) is accepted for registration only within three years of the date of award,” He noted.
