JAMB to Direct Entry Candidates: Upload Your Results or Lose Admission

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has advised all applicants who applied for the 2024 admission cycle using the Interim Joint Matriculation Board Examination (IJMB) and the Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board (JUPEB) to visit an accredited computer-based test centre (CBT) to upload their results immediately after they are released.

The board emphasized that candidates who fail to complete this process will be disqualified from being considered for the 2024 Direct Entry (DE) admission.

This directive was issued in a statement by JAMB’s Public Communication Advisor, Dr Fabian Benjamin, on Sunday in Abuja.

The board further stated that any application listed as “awaiting result” (AR) and not updated in accordance with this instruction will not be considered for admission.

The statement reads: “All candidates who applied for admission through the 2024 Direct Entry (DE) mode using awaiting results from IJMB or JUPEB should urgently visit any approved CBT centre to upload their results as soon as they are released. Failure to do so will result in disqualification from consideration for the 2024 DE admission.”

It continued: “During the 2024 DE registration period, some candidates registered with awaiting results from IJMB and JUPEB but have not yet uploaded these results. Please note that no candidate will be considered for admission with awaiting results, similar to the policy for UTME candidates.”

The board reiterated: “Any application marked as “awaiting result” (AR) that does not comply with this directive will be disqualified from admission consideration.”

“It is essential that all candidate credentials are verified to determine their eligibility.”

Applicants who do not upload their results will be considered as not having any valid results.

The statement further advised: “Additionally, candidates applying for the 2025 DE are encouraged to be proactive. Ensure that your awaiting results are uploaded promptly upon release to change your status from AR and enhance your chances of admission.”
