JAMB’s 2025 UTME registration postponed until February 3
The 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) registration will now commence on Monday, February 3, instead of January 31, as earlier slated.
Fabian Benjamin, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) public communication advisor, disclosed this in a statement on Friday.
JAMB said the change was necessary to allow the board to implement essential adjustments to its registration templates.
“These adjustments came in light of the recent suspension of certain law programmes at selected universities, as submitted to the board by the Council for Legal Education.
“Additionally, the board discovered that some computer-based test centres had used deceptive facilities to be approved, prompting the need for further scrutiny and corrections by disapproving such centres.
“The board acknowledges the disruption this may cause to candidates and other stakeholders and sincerely apologises for any inconvenience,” the statement said.
It added that the additional time would be used to ensure that all necessary changes were made for a smooth registration process.
