ABUJA – The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, Tuesday, said it had not determined the cut off marks for 2017 admission into various courses in tertiary institutions.
It explained that such decision which was only taken at a policy committee meeting with all stakeholders, chaired by the Minister of Education was yet to hold.
This came as it announced commencement of sale of Direct Entry application forms for candidates who have A-level results and wish to gain direct admission to Degree programmes in Nigerian tertiary institutions.
The Board has equally commenced the sale of UTME application forms for Nigerians abroad and foreign candidates who desire to attend tertiary institutions in Nigeria.
A statement, in Abuja, by Dr Fabian Benjamin, Head of Media, JAMB, said the process registering the Direct Entry application form was the same applied to the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations, UTME registration forms.
Here, candidates are expected to create profile and obtain pins where they would proceed for biometric capturing at the CBT centres for registration. ” We urge all candidates wishing to register through direct entry to obtain the pins at Interswitch, Remita or any of the commercial banks approved earlier for the vending of UTME pins,” it advised would-be candidates.
In a related development, JAMB has said it was yet to commence the change of course and institutions. ” We will soon begin and when we do start, the changes will be done in all approved CBT centres nationwide. Candidates need not necessarily come to the Board’s centres for the change. “It can be done in any of the CBT centres. This is to avoid overcrowding of our offices for services that can be obtained at the utmost comfort by the candidates.
” The delay has been occasioned by the Board’s preparation to ensure that the system is smooth and without encumbrance, “it explained. It urged the public to” note that every candidate desirous of a change of course or institution will be allowed to do so as the platform will be open until the close of admission.”
“Candidates need not panic or get desperate as it will not be closed as being speculated by those who want to use the opportunity of candidates desperation to defraud them. In view of this, they are not to patronise any fraudulent individuals or organisations but to visit approved CBT centres and never to hesitate in cross checking any information they are not too clear about, “it said. It advised candidates not to be victims of fraudsters who claim to have the capacity to inflate their scores. “They do not have such ability and when caught the board will prosecute both the fraudsters and the candidates who patronise them,” it warned.
