JAMB first batch admission, what candidate need to know

To  2018/2019 Jambites, as you may know, the offered of admission to 200,000 candidates is no more a story. As adviced by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board - Jamb through the head of media and information, Dr Fabian Benjamin that candidates should check their admission status and accept or reject before 16 October.

To this, I will urge all candidates to visit Jamb caps and know if they have been offered admission or not, as failure accept or reject admission before 12midnight 16 October will leave such candidate with no choice but to write Jamb again in 2019.

The message from Benjamin "...we are urging all candidates to go to our site and check their admission status and those who have been offered such admission should quickly indicate by accepting and printing such offer, as failure to do so will automatically mean the candidate is no longer interested.

"And therefore, the board may see all such offers as rejected and would have no option than to op them up and give it to other interested candidates.

"Candidates are to accept or reject all offers not later than October 16 as that is when all offers of admissions of first choice will close.

"After that, we will commence admission exercise for the second choice candidates."

According to Vanguard news, News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that over 1.6million candidates wrote 2018 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
