The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has postponed the commencement of registration of Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination UTME till Monday 3rd of February, 2025.
In a statement released on Friday by the board Public Communication Advisor, Fabian Benjamin, stated that “this change is important 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. Additionally, 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 acknowledges the disruption this may cause to candidates and other stakeholders and sincerely apologises for any inconvenience.
“The additional time will be used to ensure that all necessary changes are made for a smooth registration process,” the statement read.
