"Candidates seeking a change of institution or course for the 2026 admission cycle can now access the JAMB portal."
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has officially activated the UTME Change of Institution and Course portal for the 2026 session. This service is essential for candidates who have reviewed their UTME results and wish to adjust their academic path based on their performance or newly discovered career interests. Candidates are required to visit accredited Computer-Based Test (CBT) centers to process these changes, as the board emphasizes the need for security and verification during the update process.
When applying for a change, candidates must provide accurate details, including their current course of study, the intended new institution, and their original UTME registration number. It is important to note that changes made during this period are final, and students should conduct thorough research on their preferred universities' admission requirements before initiating the process. Furthermore, candidates are advised not to share their private login credentials with unauthorized third parties to avoid fraudulent modifications to their records. This window serves as a final opportunity to align preferences before the official commencement of post-UTME screening exercises nationwide.
