Jamb Extends Post Utme Deadline For Underage Candidates
The Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board has extended the deadline for universities to submit Post-UTME screening scores of underage candidates who sat for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
JAMB’s spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, announced the extension on Thursday in a statement on Thursday.
Benjamin, who explained that the decision was reached in collaboration with the affected institutions, said a reminder has been sent via email to the defaulting universities.
He noted that despite the release of the 2025 Senior School Certificate Examination results by the National Examinations Council on September 17, several institutions had yet to comply.
Benjamin, however, urged the affected institutions to forward the results without further delay.
He said, “23 out of 71 universities failed to meet the earlier deadline of September 15 for the submission of the scores. The institutions are among those chosen by candidates seeking admission.”
