JAMB has opened 2026 Jamb UTME registration for local and foreign candidates. Register only at accredited CBT centres with a valid ePIN. Deadline: February 28, 2026.
Start your journey today! The 2026 JAMB UTME registration is officially open for all candidates.
Key Registration Guidelines:
- Registration must be completed only at accredited JAMB CBT centres.
- Candidates are required to purchase a valid JAMB ePIN before proceeding.
- Those who already have their ePIN should download and fill the JAMB Registration Template completely before visiting any CBT centre.
- The registration exercise will close on Saturday, February 28, 2026.
Don’t wait until the last minute—secure your ePIN, complete your template, and register early to avoid delays.
The official novel for the 2026 UTME is The Lekki Headmaster by Kabir Alabi Garba. UTME candidates are entitled to receive a free copy of the novel after completing their registration at an accredited CBT centre and are advised to request it if it is not given to you.
COMPULSORY DISCLOSURE OF PREVIOUS ADMISSION STATUS
Candidates are henceforth required to disclose their admission (matriculation) status by indicating their previous registration details with the year of UTME/DE at the point of registration.
Any false or non-declaration of previous registration/matriculation will automatically invalidate the candidate’s registration/previous admission.
Having been previously admitted (matriculated) and wishing to change or start afresh in another institution or programme is allowed, however, failure to disclose such prior admission is an offense.
Completion of JAMB Registration
To avoid issues during your registration, ensure you have accurately and completely filled your JAMB registration template. Before selecting your course and subject combination, carefully review the official JAMB brochure for proper guidance.
Steps to Finalize Registration
Verify on the system that all details entered from your template are correct before proceeding.
Print your Registration Confirmation Slip only after biometric authentication (valid fingerprint for UTME/DE).
Fingerprint authentication ensures accountability and removes errors from CBT centres.
Candidates must double‑check all details before confirming with their fingerprint.
For Institutions and Centres
Schools, institutions, tutorial centres, business centres, and cafés can begin setting up their CBT centres to become JAMB‑approved CBT Agents and Training Centres, helping students prepare for the upcoming exams.
