The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has warned prospective candidates, parents, and guardians that it has not yet commenced the sale of application forms for the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and Direct Entry (DE) as of early January 2022.

UTME/DE 2022 forms not yet on sale, beware of fraudsters - JAMB

Warning Against Fake Registration Portals

  • In a statement issued by JAMB's Head of Media, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the Board described circulating messages claiming that 2022 UTME/DE form sales have started as fraudulent attempts by scammers to extort money from unsuspecting candidates.
  • JAMB assured the public that the official commencement date for the sale of 2022 UTME and Direct Entry forms will be widely publicized across national newspapers and the Board's official channels.

Use this period before registration opens to study the syllabus and practice past questions on the Mentra JAMB CBT app, available on both Android and iOS.

Yes, Damilola! Getting your 11-digit NIN ready (and ensuring the spelling of your name and date of birth on your NIN slip are 100% accurate) is the best thing to do before registration starts.
