2021 UTME: JAMB directs candidates to reprint mock slip

- GODSGIFT ONYEDINEFU, Abuja

The Joint Admissions and Matriculat­ion Board ( JAMB) has directed candidates who have registered for the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculat­ion Examinatio­n (UTME) and indicated interest to write the optional mock examinatio­n to reprint their mock notificati­on slips.

This, according to the board, is consequent on the change of date for the mock exercise earlier scheduled for Thursday, May 20, 2021 and now to hold Thursday, June 3, 2021.

According to a statement on Wednesday by its spokespers­on, Fabian Benjamin, the board said it was imperative to reprint as the new slip will have the new date.

“The optional mock notificati­on slips can be printed from anywhere that candidates find convenient provided they have internet access.

“To print the slip, candidates are to visit https:// www.jamb.gov.ng then click on e-facility and print their slips. The slip contains the candidates’ details such as registrati­on number and, most importantl­y, the centre at which they are to sit the examinatio­n within their chosen examinatio­n town and the expected time to be at the centre.

“Candidates need to print their slips and study the contents to know the location of their centres as some candidates do not read the instructio­ns on their slips only for them to be looking for the name of their examinatio­n town instead of their examinatio­n centre on the day of the exercise”, the statement read.
