The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has activated the Central Admissions Processing System (JAMB CAPS) for the 2021/2022 admission exercise, allowing candidates to monitor and accept their admission offers online.

Why You Must Monitor Your JAMB CAPS Regularly

  • Universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education have begun uploading their 2021/2022 admission lists to the JAMB portal.
  • Many institutions upload names to JAMB CAPS days or weeks before publishing lists on their school portals, and any candidate offered admission must click ACCEPT ADMISSION on CAPS to print their official JAMB Admission Letter.

Step-by-Step Guide to Check & Accept Admission on JAMB CAPS

  1. Visit the JAMB e-Facility login page at www.jamb.gov.ng/EfacilityLogin and log in with your registered email address and password.
  2. Select your exam year and click on "Check Admission Status".
  3. Click on "Access my CAPS".
  4. On the left-hand menu, click on "Admission Status" to see if you have been offered admission.
  5. If admitted, your passport photograph will appear alongside a congratulatory message, and the ACCEPT ADMISSION and REJECT ADMISSION buttons will become active. Click Accept Admission and proceed to print your JAMB Admission Letter.

How to Fix the 'Welcome' Blank Page on Mobile Phones

If you are checking JAMB CAPS on a smartphone and only see the word "Welcome" without the left-hand menu, open the Google Chrome browser, tap the three-dot menu icon at the top right corner, and tick "Desktop site" (Request Desktop Site) so the full CAPS dashboard loads.

My JAMB CAPS says 'Admission in Progress, Check Back Later'. What does that mean?

'Admission in Progress (AIP)' is great news, Miracle! It means your school has proposed your name for admission and it is undergoing final JAMB verification before changing to 'Congratulations, you have been offered admission'. Keep checking daily.
