In February, JAMB announced the closure of the registration of the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). Registration started on Monday, January 15, and ended on Monday, February 26.
In preparation for the main exam, over 260,000 candidates wrote the 2024 mock UTME across 793 computer-based test (CBT) centres in Nigeria.
The main UTME will commence on Friday, April 19, 2024.
Legit.ng reports that printing the JAMB examination slip is important. The slip provides details such as the UTME exam date, venue, time, and other essential information a candidate needs to be aware of.
Without this slip, candidates may face difficulties gaining entry into the examination hall.
Every year, JAMB conducts the UTME in Nigeria. A student's score will determine whether he or she will be admitted to higher education (university, polytechnics, college of education, and others).
