Candidates awaiting their O’level results will no longer be offered or recommended for admission by any institution effective from this year.
Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja by its Head of Information, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, saying that it has concluded all restructuring and reforms and is now ready to begin sales of its application document in March.
The restructuring is to expand the opportunities available to candidates as almost all the public universities do not consider candidates on the second choice list because they hardly exhaust their first choice.
JAMB said it took the decision because it found out that many institutions had offered candidates admission in the past on merit only for them to discover that such candidates do not have necessaryO’level results for the admission.
To this end, JAMB would insist that candidates supply their result on its website during registration or later, but before admissions commences for them to be considered for admissions.
