The Joint Admission Examination Board (JAMB) has shifted the registration of the 2022/23 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and Direct Entry (DE) by one week.
The registration which was earlier scheduled to commence on February 12 would now begin by February 19.
Head, Public Affairs and Protocol of JAMB, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, yesterday, said the one-week postponement is to allow for more fine-tuning of the upgraded and more user-friendly procedures for candidates’ registration.
