JAMB Result Slip Printing for 2026 UTME Commences May 18th

JAMB Result Slip Printing for 2026 UTME Commences May 18th

"Candidates can now print their original 2026 UTME results starting May 18th, an essential document for forthcoming admissions."

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has scheduled the commencement of the printing of original UTME result slips for the 2026 academic session to begin on May 18th. This official document is a critical requirement for all candidates planning to participate in the upcoming post-UTME screening exercises conducted by various federal, state, and private universities. Candidates are encouraged to print their results through the official JAMB portal using their registered email addresses and phone numbers to ensure they have an authentic copy for their documentation.

The board has cautioned that the printing process should be done only through official channels to avoid counterfeit slips. Candidates who have successfully checked their results via the SMS service (55019/66019) should now proceed to the portal to generate their official slip, which contains a secure QR code for verification by university admissions officers. As the 2026/2027 admission season gains momentum, having this document ready is paramount for the verification of credentials. Students should keep multiple copies of the slip and store them securely, as they will be required during physical screening later in the admission process. If any candidate faces issues accessing their result on the portal, they are advised to visit the nearest JAMB-accredited CBT center or a state office for immediate resolution.

How Nigerian University Aggregate Scores Are Calculated

Most Nigerian universities determine admission eligibility using a weighted aggregate formula combining your JAMB UTME score (scaled out of 50%), Post-UTME screening score (scaled out of 30%), and best 5 O-Level SSCE grades (scaled out of 20%). For instance, the University of Lagos (UNILAG) uses a strict 50:30:20 ratio. Other institutions such as Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) use a 50:50 ratio between JAMB and Post-UTME.

CampusAI automates these institutional formulas instantly while validating your mandatory subject combinations against official JAMB brochure rules to prevent candidate disqualification.
