Jamb Information | | "Always review your O’Level results carefully before uploading to the portal. Once submitted, most systems won’t allow changes, and correcting errors later can delay your admission process."
Follow these steps to fix the error:
Step 1: Visit an Accredited JAMB CBT You cannot use a standard cyber cafe for this process. You must visit an accredited JAMB CBT Centre or the nearest JAMB State Office.
Step 2: Documents to Bring Ensure you go along with the following documents:
Your Original O'Level result slip (WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB).A printed copy of your JAMB UTME/DE Registration Slip.
Step 3: What to Tell the Official Inform the CBT official that there is a grading error on your JAMB CAPS profile and that you need to re-upload your result using the correct grades. They will override the previous entry by officially re-uploading the result and completing the biometrics (thumbprint) process.
Step 4: Verify the Changes After the upload is done, do not assume it immediately reflects on your phone. Log in to the JAMB e-Facility Portal.

Jamb Information | The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has activated the change of institution and course process for candidates who sat for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
According to JAMB spokesperson Fabian Benjamin, in a post on his X (formerly Twitter) handle, candidates who sat for the 2026 UTME can print their original result slips from Monday.
The board advised candidates seeking to switch their institution or programme of choice to visit any accredited Computer-Based Test (CBT) centre to process the changes.
Benjamin tweeted: “Candidates wishing to change their institution or programme of choice may now proceed to do so by visiting any of the Board’s approved CBT centres. Applicants are advised to visit any accredited CBT centre to effect the changes. Furthermore, the printing of the original 2026 UTME result slip will commence on Monday, 18th May, 2026.”
Meanwhile, TVC News Online reports that JAMB and heads of tertiary institutions have approved 150 as the minimum admission benchmark for universities for the 2026 admission exercise.

Jamb Information | Roads can wait. Buildings can wait. Airports can wait. Education cannot.
The road we fail to build today can still be built tomorrow. The airport that was delayed this year may still serve future generations. But the child pushed out of school by policy failure is often lost forever.
Every year, one of Nigeria's roughly 15 million out-of-school children loses a narrow window that may never reopen. When reforms eventually come, they benefit a different cohort, not the child already left behind.
National Stakeholders Meeting on the National Education Data Infrastructure, led by the Honourable Minister of Education, Tunji Alausa, struck me as profoundly consequential. In many ways, it may become one of the most important national infrastructure projects Nigeria has undertaken in recent years.
Data from all states were available on the portal, from school enrollment to the state of physical infrastructure to the student-teacher ratio. A mind-boggling quantum of data, made easy to understand, compare, and drive policy.
The Nigeria Education Management Information System, designed by Ernst & Young, the company that developed a similar system in India, is a national treasure: robust yet simple.
Sitting in that room, I watched evidence do what argument alone often cannot. Two figures stayed with me.
The first was the gap between primary school enrolment and junior secondary enrolment. The drop is so wide that I found myself asking the obvious question: what happened to those children?
Where did they go between Primary Six and JSS One? A generation appears to thin out between those two rungs, and we owe ourselves an honest answer.
The second was the composition of JAMB candidates: fresh entrants versus repeat candidates. The ratio revealed an admission bottleneck I had not fully grasped.
Too many qualified young Nigerians are queuing behind the same narrow gate, year after year. Suddenly, the Minister's policy direction on easing admission bottlenecks, which I had instinctively questioned, began to make sense to me.
That is the power of credible, real-time data. It does not merely inform policy; it humbles assumptions.
I am grateful to be contributing my own quota through the Nigeria Research and Education Network (NgREN). We have committed to delivering connectivity and digital services to tertiary institutions this year, and to extending similar infrastructure to secondary schools in 2027.
What is happening in education may not yet dominate the headlines, but something important is taking shape quietly beneath the surface. Evidence is beginning to replace assertion. Data is starting to shape decisions.
The question on my mind:
If evidence can transform education governance, when will the rest of the government follow?
