The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has urged Nigerian universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education to accelerate their 2021/2022 admission exercise, revealing that only about 100,000 admissions had been processed out of over 600,000 available spaces as of January 2022.
Release Admission Lists Even Before Physical Resumption
- Briefing institutional Desk Officers, JAMB's Director of Admissions, Mr. Mohammed Ahmed, advised schools that even if their academic calendars are not yet ready for freshers to physically resume on campus, they should still upload their admission lists on JAMB CAPS immediately.
- Concluding the 2021/2022 admissions early allows candidates to know their admission fate before JAMB rolls out the 2022 UTME application forms, preventing admitted candidates from unnecessarily buying another UTME form.
If you are waiting for your school's admission list, check your status regularly on JAMB CAPS, and if you plan to sit for the 2022 UTME, practice on the Mentra JAMB CBT app on Android and iOS.
