The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has rescheduled the commencement of the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination registration to Monday, February 3.
Originally slated to begin on Friday, January 31, the registration process was delayed to enable the Board to implement crucial modifications to its registration framework.
In an official statement released on Friday via its X handle, JAMB’s Public Communication Advisor, Fabian Benjamin, explained the reasons behind the postponement.
“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 gain approval, 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 partly read.
JAMB assured candidates and stakeholders that the delay is necessary to ensure a seamless and more transparent registration process.
