The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has rescheduled the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for 24,535 candidates. This decision was made due to substantial non-compliance with JAMB’s standards at the centres where these candidates were supposed to take their exams.
Affected candidates have been directed to print their supplementary Examination Notification Slips starting from Tuesday, 4th June, 2024, in order to confirm their designated examination centres.
Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the spokesman for JAMB, signed a statement on Sunday announcing that the Board has also released an additional 3,921 withheld results. The statement reads, “The Board has painstakingly analysed the process and conduct of the 2024 UTME in some centres where there are strong proofs of substantial non-compliance with the Board’s standards. Consequently, 24,535 candidates have been rescheduled to retake the examination in their chosen Examination Towns on Saturday, June 22, 2024.”
It continues, “Meanwhile, 3,921 outstanding 2024 UTME results that had been cleared have now been released. Therefore, concerned candidates are urged to check their results from Saturday, 1st June, 2024 by sending RESULT to 55019 or 66019 to ascertain their status as those cleared would have their results while those rescheduled would be told that they had been rescheduled.”
The total number of results released now stands at 1,883,350. The rescheduled examination will take place on Saturday, 22nd June, 2024, providing the affected candidates with adequate time to prepare for the exercise.
