The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced plan to commence registration for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) on Monday, February 3 instead of Friday, January 31, 2025.
This was made known on Friday by JAMB’s Public Communication Advisor
Fabian Benjamin, via a statement.
According to the statement, this change is necessary to allow the Board to implement essential adjustments to its registration templates.
These adjustments come in light of the recent suspension of certain law programmes at selected universities, as submitted to the Board by the Council for Legal Education.
The Board discovered that some Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres had used deceptive facilities to be approved, prompting the need for further scrutiny and corrections by disapproving such centres.
The board acknowledged the disruption this may cause to candidates and other stakeholders and sincerely apologised for any inconvenience.
The board said the additional time will be used to ensure that all necessary changes are made for a smooth registration process.
