Following the release of the first batch of the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) results, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has explained why some candidates have not yet seen their scores.
Four Reasons a 2022 UTME Result May Be Delayed or Withheld
Speaking with journalists on Monday, 16th May 2022, JAMB's Head of Public Affairs and Protocol, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, listed four primary factors that can cause a candidate's result to be withheld or delayed:
- Examination Malpractice: Direct involvement in cheating or prohibited acts caught on CCTV or by invigilators.
- Unruly Conduct: A candidate's failure to conduct themselves properly inside or around the CBT hall.
- Breach of Procedural Processes: Bypassing mandatory biometric verification or violating examination instructions.
- Ongoing Review of CBT Centre Footage: Incomplete review of CCTV recordings and technical logs from the candidate's CBT centre.
Candidates whose centres are undergoing routine review will have their results released once the centre is cleared. If you have already seen your score, start preparing for your Post-UTME screening on the Mentra POST-UTME app on Android and iOS.
