JAMB Registration Fees 2025/2026

As part of the registration process, candidates must pay a total of N3,500 for the JAMB form.

- N700 for Registration
- N1,500 as Examination Fees
- N1,500 for the Optional Mock-UTME (if taken at privately-owned centres)
Difference Between JAMB Direct Entry and JAMB UTME
The primary difference between JAMB Direct Entry (DE) and JAMB Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) lies in the level of entry and the qualification requirements:
JAMB Direct Entry (DE):
- JAMB direct entry is designed for candidates who have already completed higher qualifications such as National Diploma (ND), Higher National Diploma (HND), Nigeria Certificate in Education (NCE), or other equivalent qualifications.
- Direct Entry candidates can apply for admission into a university programme’s second or third year, depending on the course and institution’s admission policies.
- This route bypasses the first year, enabling qualified candidates to continue their education at an advanced level.
JAMB UTME:
- UTME is intended for candidates who have completed their O’level (SSCE/NECO/WASSCE) qualifications.
- It is a standard examination for students seeking admission into the first year of a university programme.
- Candidates must write the UTME and meet the minimum score set by the chosen institution to be eligible for admission into 100-level courses.
Additional Information
- Direct entry (DE) candidates will only register and not participate in the examination.
- You can choose up to three universities for JAMB Direct Entry and UTME. However, you can only select one university as your first choice and the other two as your second and third choices.
- You can register for JAMB with awaiting results. However, you must upload the results later to be considered for admission.
