2025 UTME: JAMB will not extend registration deadline- Benjamin

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has ruled out any possible extension of its ongoing registration for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME.

Public Affairs Advisor of JAMB, Dr Fabian Benjamin, in a statement on Tuesday maintained that the exercise which began on February 3, will conclude on March 8, 2025.

Benjamin noted that the deadline for registration has been clearly communicated in all advertisements and the official calendar for the 2025 UTME exercise.

“We wish to inform all prospective candidates that there will be no extension of the registration period.

“This notice is particularly important given the recent decline in the number of candidates registering for the examination.

“We urge all individuals who wish to participate to register promptly and avoid waiting until the last minute,” he said.

He further disclosed that “over 1.5 million candidates have successfully registered, which aligns closely with the Board’s projections for the 2025 examination cycle.

“It is essential to note that the Board’s calendar is fixed, with numerous subsequent programmes scheduled after registration, including examinations, results management, and admissions exercise.”

According to him, “These timelines are coordinated with other agencies whose operations rely on the completion of our processes. Therefore, extending the registration period would disrupt not only the Board’s plans but also those of our partners.”

The exam body strongly encouraged candidates to complete their registration as soon as possible, adhering to the established timeline for the 2025 UTME.
