Summary: JAMB announces June 13 as the date for UTME mop-up examination. Find out if you qualify, what to do next, and how to prepare for this second chance opportunity.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially announced June 13 as the date for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) mop-up exercise. This special examination is designed for candidates who experienced difficulties during the main UTME exercise.
Who Qualifies for the Mop-Up Exam?
The mop-up examination is specifically for candidates who encountered technical challenges, biometric verification issues, or other unforeseen circumstances that prevented them from completing their examination during the initial UTME period. If you were unable to sit for your exam due to system glitches, computer malfunctions at your test center, or other genuine technical problems, this is your opportunity to write the examination.
What You Should Do Now
Check Your Status: Visit the JAMB official portal at www.jamb.gov.ng to confirm if you’re eligible for the mop-up exercise. Not every candidate who missed the exam automatically qualifies—only those whose situations were documented and verified by JAMB.
Print Your Notification: If you’re among the affected candidates, ensure you print out your mop-up examination notification slip, which contains your new exam date, time, and venue details.
Prepare Adequately: While June 13 might seem far away, use this extra time wisely. Continue your revision, practice past questions, and ensure you’re mentally and academically prepared.
Important Reminders
– Arrive at your examination center at least one hour before the scheduled time
– Bring your original JAMB registration slip and a valid means of identification
– Ensure your biometric details (fingerprints) are clear and accessible
– Follow all COVID-19 protocols and examination guidelines at the center
Don’t Miss This Opportunity
For many Nigerian students, gaining admission into tertiary institutions is a dream that begins with UTME. This mop-up examination represents a second chance for affected candidates to fulfill their academic aspirations. Make sure you take full advantage of this opportunity.
