The JAMB Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) for the 2025/2026 admission exercise is now active, and universities, polytechnics, and colleges are uploading their admission lists in batches.
Because several institutions upload their admitted candidates to JAMB CAPS before publishing a list on their school website, checking your CAPS dashboard regularly is the fastest way to know when you have been offered admission.
Step-by-Step Guide to Check Your Admission Status on JAMB CAPS
- Visit the official JAMB e-Facility portal at efacility.jamb.gov.ng and log in with your registered email address and password.
- Crucial Tip for Phone Users: If you are using a smartphone on Google Chrome, tap the three dots at the top right corner and tick Request Desktop Site so the full CAPS menu displays (otherwise you will only see a blank "Welcome" message).
- Click on Check Admission Status, then click Access my CAPS.
- Click on Admission Status on the left-hand menu.
- If you have been admitted, your passport photo and a Congratulations message will appear.
How to Accept Your Admission Offer Within 4 Weeks
- Via SMS: Send ACCEPT or REJECT via SMS to 55019 or 66019 using the exact phone number linked to your JAMB profile.
- Lost SIM Card? If you no longer have access to your registered phone number, visit any JAMB-accredited CBT centre to accept your admission using biometric thumbprint verification.
- 4-Week Window & Admission Letter: Candidates have 4 weeks to accept their offer, after which they must print their official JAMB Admission Letter for school clearance.
