The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) candidates can change their choice of tertiary institution as many times as they want.
According to JAMB, candidates can change institutions as long as the target school portal is still open for the admission process. This was disclosed via JAMB’s X handle (formerly known as Twitter) @JAMBHQ.
The board stated, “You can change institution for as many times as possible in as much as the target school portal is still open for the admission process for the year.”
This announcement has generated reactions from Nigerians, with some seeking clarification on payment issues and others expressing concerns about the change of institution process.
