🚨 JAMB: September 30 Deadline Is Approaching
JAMB has given candidates with outstanding admission offers dating from 2021 to date a final opportunity to indicate whether they want to accept or reject their offers.
The deadline is Wednesday, September 30, 2026.
JAMB previously warned that candidates should not wait until the final day to take action.
According to the Board, outstanding offers that remain neither accepted nor rejected after the deadline will be reverted to “Not Admitted” on JAMB records.
Candidates who accept their offers can proceed with the necessary admission documentation, while those who no longer want an outstanding offer can reject it through the appropriate process.
What to do today
1. Log into your JAMB e-Facility account.
2. Check your admission status.
3. Look for any outstanding admission offer.
4. If you want the offer, accept it before the deadline.
5. If you no longer want it, follow JAMB's procedure to reject it.
