Because email addresses were not collected at the initial point of 2022 UTME/DE registration to prevent third-party cybercafe tampering, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has enabled an SMS method for candidates to link their personal email addresses and receive their e-Facility login passwords.

Procedure for 2022 UTME/DE candidates to obtain JAMB's e-facility login details

Step-by-Step Guide to Link Your Email via 55019

  1. Using the exact phone number (SIM card) you used to register for the 2022 UTME/DE, ensure you have at least ₦50 airtime balance.
  2. Open your text message app and type: Email [space] your-email-address [space] your-email-address
    Example: Email 1234j@gmail.com 1234j@gmail.com
  3. Send the SMS to 55019 (or 66019).
  4. Once processed, JAMB will send a message to your email inbox containing your default e-Facility password, which you can use to log in at www.jamb.gov.ng/Efacility.

Alternative Method at a CBT Centre

If your SIM card fails to send the SMS or you do not receive the password email, visit any accredited JAMB CBT centre or JAMB office near you to link your email directly on the system. While preparing for your university admission screening, download the Mentra POST-UTME app on Android and iOS.

Yes, Miracle. Type 'Email' followed by a single space, your email address in lowercase, another single space, and your email address again in lowercase, then send to 55019.
