As the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) draws closer, one question on the minds of many candidates, parents, and guardians is: When is JAMB registration starting for 2025? The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially announced that registration for the 2025 UTME will begin in January 2025. While the exact date has not yet been disclosed, the Board has assured stakeholders that preparations are in top gear to ensure a smooth and efficient registration process.
Official Announcement by JAMB
JAMB made the announcement in its recent bulletin, emphasizing that all necessary measures are in place to address previous challenges and ensure seamless registration. The Board has promised transparency, efficiency, and adherence to best practices throughout the registration and examination phases. Although the specific registration date is yet to be unveiled, candidates are advised to stay alert and follow updates through official JAMB communication channels.
Preparations for a Seamless JAMB 2025 Registration Process
In preparation for the 2025 UTME, JAMB has taken several proactive measures. These include the generation of sufficient examination items, accreditation of Computer-Based Test (CBT) centers, and streamlined registration and result management processes. These measures are aimed at preventing the recurrence of challenges faced in previous examinations and ensuring that candidates have a stress-free experience.
JAMB has also integrated lessons learned from the 2024 UTME into its planning process. These improvements reflect the Board’s commitment to providing a reliable and transparent examination environment.
How to Prepare for 2025 JAMB Registration
To ensure a smooth registration process, prospective candidates are advised to create their JAMB profiles ahead of time. This can be done by sending a text message: NIN (space) followed by their 11-digit NIN number to 55019. This simple step will help candidates avoid unnecessary delays and errors during registration.
Candidates should also ensure they have a valid National Identification Number (NIN), an active phone number, and a functional email address ready before registration begins.
Strict Advisory on Henna Use
JAMB has reiterated a strict warning against the use of henna (‘Laali’ or ‘Lale’) on candidates’ fingers. Henna designs can interfere with biometric verification, which is mandatory for both registration and examination entry. Candidates attempting to remove henna with harsh chemicals may inadvertently damage their fingerprint whorls, making verification even more difficult.
To avoid unnecessary complications, candidates are advised to keep their ten fingers free from any markings, designs, or chemical damage.
Commitment to Transparency and Efficiency
The 2025 UTME is expected to set new standards in examination transparency, efficiency, and result management. JAMB has assured candidates and stakeholders that every step of the registration and examination process will be carried out with the highest level of integrity and accountability.
Candidates are encouraged to remain vigilant, follow JAMB’s official updates, and avoid unofficial registration channels or fraudulent agents promising shortcuts.
Stay Updated for Registration Dates
While the exact registration date has not been officially confirmed, candidates are encouraged to regularly check the official JAMB website (www.jamb.gov.ng) and other accredited communication channels for updates.
Early preparation is key to avoiding last-minute issues. Candidates should ensure all their details are accurate, their profiles are created, and they adhere strictly to the guidelines provided by JAMB.
Conclusion
The countdown to the 2025 UTME registration has begun, and JAMB is leaving no stone unturned to ensure a seamless and stress-free process for all candidates. While the exact registration date is still pending, taking proactive steps now—such as creating a profile and preparing the necessary documents—will save time and reduce stress when registration officially begins in January 2025.
Stay informed, stay prepared, and ensure you follow all official guidelines for a successful 2025 JAMB UTME registration experience.
