Direct Entry (DE) Forms are now available for purchase both nationally and in a few carefully chosen international locations through the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, or JAMB.
This was stated in a statement released by the board on Tuesday by spokesman Fabian Benjamin.
According to him, overseas applicants wishing to enroll in Nigerian universities through the Direct Entry route are eligible to purchase.
He states that the Board will persist in guaranteeing an even playing field for all candidate, regardless of their standing.
“The Board would not process candidates’ applications from all awarding institutions that have refused to honour several requests for the verification of their A’level certificates presented by some candidates for the 2023 admission.
“Candidates who are not awaiting results must have uploaded their A’ level qualifications, O’level results and DE registration template at the point of registration as no DE candidates would be processed for admission until such claimed results are uploaded and verified by the awarding institutions on the Board’s Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) mail platform.
“DE candidates, who at the point of registration are awaiting A Level results of IJMB/JUPEB/NABTEB, must have uploaded their Admission Letter and Registration Template at the point of registration. Applicants with Cambridge certificates of the pre-2018 examination year should visit Cambridge directly for verification,” he added.
Additionally, the Board provided a window of opportunity for candidates to switch from UTME to DE, provided that they were expecting A-level results at the time of registration and that their DE results had not yet been revealed.
Beginning on Wednesday, February 28, 2024, and ending on Thursday, March 28, 2024, is when the registration procedure will take place.
