The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has postponed the commencement of registration for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), from January 31 to February 3, 2025.
JAMB cited the need for critical adjustments to its registration process, particularly in response to recent changes in law programs at some universities as directed by the Council for Legal Education.
In a statement, JAMB spokesperson Fabian Benjamin also disclosed that the Board identified irregularities in the approval process of some Computer-Based Test (CBT), centers, prompting further scrutiny and the disqualification of certain facilities.
While acknowledging any inconvenience the delay may cause, JAMB assured candidates that the additional time would help ensure a seamless registration process.
