"Candidates who sat for the 2026 UTME can begin printing their official result slips from May 18th, 2026."
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has confirmed that the official printing of the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) result slips will commence on Monday, May 18th, 2026. This date marks the official availability of the documents required for subsequent stages of the admission process, including post-UTME screenings and registration at various higher institutions across the country.
Candidates are advised to utilize the official JAMB portal to access their results. Printing the slip is a mandatory requirement, as it serves as the primary document for identifying candidates during their interaction with various university admission offices. To print the slip, candidates should log in to their profile on the JAMB website using their email address and password. A nominal fee may be charged for the printing service, which must be paid strictly through the JAMB integrated payment platform.
As the admission season gains momentum, students are cautioned against patronizing unauthorized cyber cafes that offer to 'upgrade' results. JAMB has reiterated that its database is secure and any claims of score alteration are fraudulent. The result slip contains the candidate's core data, including their scores in the four subject areas, which will be cross-referenced with the O'Level results uploaded on the CAPS portal. Students should ensure that their uploaded O'Level results (WAEC/NECO/NABTEB) are accurate, as discrepancies between the UTME registration data and submitted documents can lead to immediate disqualification from the admission exercise. Always check the official JAMB portal for updates.
