Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has extended the closing date for the ongoing 2023 Direct Entry (DE) registration by one week.
In a statement shortly after the Board’s management meeting, the DE registration exercise, which commenced on Monday, 20th March, and billed to end on Thursday, 20th April 2023, has been extended till 20th May 2023
Spokesperson of the Board, Dr Fabian Benjamin, who made the statement available to newsmen on Monday in Abuja, explained that the extension was partly to give all holders of Cambridge A/Level Certificates, who were unable to register for the exercise on account of some issues associated with the verification of their certificates, another opportunity to do so, as well as accommodate others, who wish to register but were unable to do so within the stipulated time.
He noted that in its bid to ensure that the Cambridge A/L Certificate is uploaded in the verification process, the British Council is partnering with the Board and, as such, would be providing a verification portal for the seamless verification of its Cambridge Certificates as obtains with other categories of A/Level certificates.
Benjamin added that it was this provision of a verification portal by the Council that informed the Board’s decision to reconsider its earlier stand on non-inclusion of Cambridge certificate for DE registration.
Consequently, all holders of Cambridge Certificates, who desire to register for the 2023 Direct Entry, can now proceed to any of the Board’s offices nearest to them to register for the exercise.
Why is it that Jamb don’t like releasing their portal for results checking
