The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially activated its portal for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), marking a crucial step in this year’s admission process.
This development signals that candidates can now begin accessing important services related to their registration, examination details, and admission status.
What This Means for Candidates
With the portal now active, candidates who registered for the 2026 UTME can:
Print their examination slips
Check their registration details
Confirm their examination centres and dates
Monitor updates regarding rescheduling or changes
Access admission-related services after the exam
Candidates are strongly advised to visit the official JAMB portal regularly to stay updated and avoid missing important information.
How to Access the JAMB Portal
To access the portal, follow these simple steps:
1. Visit the official JAMB eFacility portal
2. Log in using your registered email address and password
3. Navigate to the relevant section (e.g., “Print Examination Slip”)
4. Download and print your details for reference
Ensure that your login credentials are kept secure and do not share them with anyone to avoid unauthorized access.
Important Reminder to Candidates
JAMB has reiterated that the information on your examination slip is very important. The time stated on your slip is your arrival time, not the actual exam start time. Candidates are expected to arrive early at their assigned centres to complete biometric verification and other necessary checks.
Also, candidates who encounter issues such as biometric verification failure or technical problems should report immediately at their centres, as genuine cases may be considered for rescheduling.
Stay Informed
The activation of the portal is a key milestone in the 2026 UTME process. Candidates should remain vigilant, follow all official instructions, and rely only on verified updates from JAMB to avoid misinformation.
