The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the temporary suspension of the 2023 Direct Entry (DE) registration exercise. According to a statement by JAMB's Head of Public Affairs and Protocol, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the registration, which opened on Monday, 20th February 2023, was placed on hold effective Tuesday, 21st February 2023.
Why JAMB Suspended DE Registration
The Board paused the exercise to deploy upgraded verification measures designed to serve prospective Direct Entry applicants better. A new commencement date will be announced soon.
New Direct Entry Upload Requirements
When registration resumes, candidates will follow a fresh procedure that requires uploading specific admission letters depending on your entry qualification:
- OND and NCE Holders: Must upload their JAMB Admission Letter.
- University Diploma Holders: Must upload the Admission Letter issued by their respective universities.
- A'Level Certificate Holders (IJMBE, JUPEB, etc.): Must upload the Admission Letter issued by their A'Level examination bodies.
Keep in mind that Direct Entry registration is conducted strictly at official JAMB offices nationwide, not at regular cybercafes or third-party CBT centres.
