The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has directed all candidates who registered for the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to start printing their 2022 UTME notification slips from Saturday.
JAMB’s Director of Information and Technology Services, Fabian Okoro, announced in a statement released to JAMBULLETIN ahead of this year’s exercise.
The statement disclosed that the 2022 UTME notification slip is available for printing by all candidates who registered for the examination scheduled to hold from May 6 to 14.
He added that the printing of examination notification slips was compulsory for all candidates, as it enables them to know the venue, date, session, and time of their examination.
“All candidates are advised to print slips on time to know the location of their examination centers, date of their scheduled sessions, and time of the examination beforehand, especially with the adjustment in examination schedules this year.
“This would guide them in making necessary arrangements ahead of the exercise as the board frowns at lateness to its examination; no excuses would be entertained from any candidates as a stitch in time, saves nine.
“Candidates need not visit any CBT centers for the printing of the notification slip as it can be done at any available internet point, be it private or public. To print the slip, candidates are to visit https://www.jamb.gov.ng then click on 2022 UTME slip printing then insert registration number to print”, Okoro said.
The slip contains candidates’ important details such as registration number, the center to which they were to sit the examination within their chosen examination town, and the expected time to be at the center.
JAMB, also insisted that all candidates would be checked into the examination hall using the Biometric Verification Machine (BVM) – a register of attendance in line with its policy of ‘no biometric verification, no examination’.
The board stressed that no examination would be rescheduled for whatever reason, saying candidates must prepare ahead and stay close to their examination venues and if possible, pay a prior visit to their centers before the date of the examination.
JAMB asked candidates to be careful not to run foul of the law, especially as it relates to prohibited items, saying necessary sanctions would be meted out to violators of its code of conduct.
These, according to JAMB, include flash drives, smartwatches, calculators, recorders, mobile phones, spy reading glasses, and jewelry, among others.
