All JAMB candidate MUST use their phone number to get their JAMB Profile Code for the UTME registration. The phone number can be used by one candidate only. CANDIDATES SHOULD NOTE AND ALWAYS REMEMBER THE NUMBER USED, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE FOR SUBSEQUENT COMMUNICATION WITH THE BOARD.
The 2024 JAMB Candidates can now start generating their profile codes through the procedure below.
Candidate should send his/her National Identification Number (NIN) by text (SMS) to 55019 or 66019 from his/her phone number e.g write the word “NIN” then space and add your 11-digit NIN Number and send to 55019 or 66019 in this format (NIN 00123456789).
There should be a space between the word “NIN” and your 11-digit NIN (Note that the number must not have been used by another person to register for UTME/DE in the past).
A Profile Code of 10 characters will be sent to the candidate on the same phone number. The phone number used for the text message is automatically tied to the candidate’s 2024 application, Examination, and Admission.
After getting the profile code, what next?
The candidate will present the profile code at the point of obtaining the JAMB form (Banks, MMOs, MFBs, Switches, USSD Partners). An ePIN will then be sent as a text message to the candidate’s Phone number The candidate will present the ePIN and profile code at any JAMB-accredited CBT Centre for registration Other Things To Note The application cannot be completed until the candidate’s biometrics (all ten fingers) are captured and photograph taken physically (No submission of passport photograph). Successful capture of biometrics and photograph will authorize a candidate to print his/her e-registration slip. The finger print shall be required for any further transaction with JAMB on the candidates’ profile. Only candidates whose biometrics verification is successful on examination day will be permitted to sit the UTME. No parent or any proxy is allowed to make any transaction on the candidates’ profile. Candidates with biometric challenges can only register at JAMB headquarters Abuja. The arrangement will be made for this through JAMB state offices If you still have any questions, please feel free to ask us using the comment box below and we will be very pleased to answer you.
