The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released a comprehensive guide to help candidates complete their 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) registration.
Shared via the Board’s official X (formerly Twitter) account, the notice details a two-step enrollment framework designed to minimize errors.
JAMB 2026 Registration: A Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Get Your Profile Code
Action: Send NIN [Your 11-digit NIN] to 55019 or 66019.
Caution: Your details are pulled directly from NIMC. Ensure your name and date of birth are correct at NIMC before you send this text.
Step 2: Payment & Final Enrollment
e-PIN: Buy your pin only from banks or accredited vendors.
CBT Center: Visit a JAMB-approved center to finish the process. Demand a dual-screen view so you can watch the operator enter your data.
Troubleshooting Common Errors:
“Record Not Found“: Your NIN isn’t active. Visit a NIMC office.
“Wrong Parameter“: You likely forgot the space between “NIN” and your number.
Biometric Failure: If your fingerprints won’t scan, go directly to a JAMB Office. Do not let a CBT center bypass this.
