The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board on Thursday announced categories of candidates to be excluded from the post Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination popularly known as Post-UTME.

The Registrar, JAMB, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, disclosed the set of candidates to be excluded as follows, “Candidates from outside Nigeria who applied through UTME/DE modes are exempted from the Post UTME screening test but can be screened after admission.

“Candidates with disabilities, including but not limited to those who are blind, deaf, mute, autistic, amputees, lame, paralyzed, have Down syndrome, Dyslexia, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, albinism, cerebral palsy, and disfigurements, are exempt from the Post-UTME screening test.
