The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) on Saturday, 13th June 2026, successfully conducted the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) Mop-Up Exercise across designated centres nationwide.
The Mop-Up Examination was organised for candidates with peculiar biometric challenges, as well as those who duly signed the attendance register during their earlier scheduled examinations but were unable to sit for the test through no fault of theirs. The exercise provided such candidates with another opportunity to participate in the examination process and effectively brought the Board’s 2026 UTME exercise to a close.
The examination was closely monitored by the Chief Technical Advisors, Chief External Examiners, Directors of the Board, security agencies, and other designated examination officials. The successful conduct of the exercise further underscores the Board’s commitment to ensuring that every eligible candidate is afforded a fair opportunity to sit the UTME, irrespective of the peculiar challenges encountered during registration or the main examination.
