The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is set to release the results of the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) today.
Scheduled to hold a press briefing in Abuja, JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, will provide insights into the release and associated matters, as indicated in a notice circulated to journalists in the capital city.
Insights into the Release Process
- Phased Release: There are indications that the results to be released on Monday are specifically for candidates who participated in the UTME in the initial days of the examination period. Results for other candidates are expected to follow after thorough scrutiny is completed.
- Thorough Scrutiny: The decision to delay the release of results for a few days was made to ensure ample time for meticulous scrutiny. This measure is aimed at upholding the credibility and integrity of the results and mitigating doubts or uncertainties, particularly regarding issues such as impersonation and other forms of malpractice.
Accessing Your 2024 UTME Results
Here’s a comprehensive guide on accessing your 2024 UTME results through two primary avenues: the official JAMB website and an SMS option.
