JAMB Introduce New Rules For 2016 / 2017 Admission Seekers
Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board ,
JAMB modified the registration procedure
for students seeking admission for the
2016 /2017 academic session .
The modification according to JAMB , will
lessen competition among candidates
seeking placement to the nation’ s
“ oversubscribed” universities .
According to Dr Fabian Benjamin , the
chief information officer of the board,
JAMB has introduced “ preferred choice ”
platform in its portal . This new addition
will enable candidates have wider
opportunities of securing admission.
“ What we did initially was that you only
have one choice . Now, we have made it in
such a way that if you miss the University
of Lagos ; University of Nigeria, Nsukka ;
Obafemi Awolowo University , Ile- Ife, and
Ahmadu Bello University , Zaira, you will
have an opportunity of going to another
school.
Before , all universities will be in first and
second choice and that will not solve any
problem. We have now decided to put a
few of those schools we feel will have
more spaces as more preferred.
“ Institutions placed on the more preferred
choice are those that are mostly not
oversubscribed. This is because it will not
make any sense if you place institutions
like the ABU , UNILAG , OAU and UNN,
when in actual sense they cannot even
admit one third of the candidates that will
choose them as most preferred, ” he said .
For proper guidance during registration ,
make sure you patronize JAMB Certified
Registration Centres.
