JAMB urges tertiary institutions to quickly conclude 2021 admissions

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has urged tertiary institutions to quickly complete the 2021 admission exercise as only 100, 000 admissions have been processed out of the over 600, 000 eligible ones.

JAMB’s Director of Admissions, Mohammed Ahmed, stated these while briefing some select institutional Desk Officers.

The director implored the desk officers to interact with their respective institutions to ensure that even if they are not ready for the students to resume, they can conduct such admissions prior to their respective chosen resumption dates to enable their candidates to know their fate.

Ahmed said the board was ready to roll out the 2022 unified tertiary matriculation examination (UTME) application documents, hence the need for Desk Officers to be proactive.
