The Board monitors the registration process and all activities on candidates’ profiles, and defaulters shall be severely sanctioned. Any candidate who makes their password, profile code or other security codes available to another person (parents, friends, tutorial teachers, fraudsters etc.) is liable for any alteration done by such person(s). DO NOT GIVE YOUR PASSWORD TO ANYBODY, INCLUDING JAMB OFFICIALS. These security codes are not to be demanded at any registration centre by any person for any purpose.

PROFILE REGISTRATION:

  1. Every candidate would require the use of a unique phone (mobile) number (SIM) for the process of registration. The unique phone number can be used by one candidate only (Note: This number (SIM) remains your unique identification for all your transactions with the Board.
  2. The candidate will send his/her National Identification Number (NIN) by text (SMS) to 55019 or 66019 from his/her personal GSM number, e.g. write the word “NIN” then space and add your 11 digit NIN Number and send to 55019 or 66019 in this format (NIN 00123456789). There should be a space between the word “NIN” and your 11 digit NIN (Note that another person must not have used the number to register for UTME/DE in the past). Do not use postpaid or special bundle SIM cards; They don’t work unless specially loaded with credit.
  3. The candidate receives a Profile Code of 10 characters on the same telephone(SIM) number.
  4. The phone number used for the text message is automatically tied to the candidate’s 2023 application, Examination and Admission.

  5. The candidate presents the profile code to the point of procurement of form (Banks, MMOs, MFBs, Switches, USSD Partners). The form- ePIN is then sent as a text message to the candidates’ Phone numbers.
  6. The candidate presents the ePIN at any JAMB accredited CBT Centre for registration.
  7. The Application cannot be completed until the candidate’s biometric (all ten fingers) is captured and photographed physically (No submission of passport photograph).

The fingerprint shall be required for any further transaction with JAMB on the candidate’s profile.
  8. Only candidates whose biometrics verification is successful on examination day will be permitted to sit the UTME. No parent or proxy is allowed to make any transaction on the candidates’ profile.

The candidate then provides his/her name, phone number and the nature of the issue, select a complaint area on a drop-down and then summarise the nature of the complaint. He/she may also attach supporting documents (if available) then send them. Complaints from 3rd parties are merely noted. Letter writing is not encouraged. Instead, all complaints should be channelled through the ticketing system for prompt attention and documentation.

For complaints relating to NIN (e.g. a candidate sends a message to 55019 or 66019 to create a profile but does not receive any response or receives incorrect data, he/she can follow the same process on the ticketing and click on 2023 NIN related issues then select the related topic on the drop-down).

NOTE THAT YOUR PASSWORD SHOULD NOT BE RELEASED TO ANYONE. JAMB CAN ONLY HELP ON PROFILE-PASSWORD, NOT E-MAIL-BOX-PASSWORD. YOU CAN ALSO CHECK YOUR ADMISSION STATUS ON JAMB IBASS APP ON YOUR PHONE. DO NOT CHECK AT ANY CYBER CAFÉ THAT WOULD DEMAND YOUR PASSWORD, WHICH IS THEN USED TO STEAL YOUR RECORDS. “TO BE FOREWARNED IS TO BE FOREARMED
