How Much Is JAMB 2022/2023 Form?

The 2022/ 2023 JAMB form will be sold for three thousand five hundred nairas only [#3500] against the initial price of 5000+ in previous years. 

Do note that the total fee for the form and registration is approximately four thousand seven hundred nairas [#4,700] and the I will give you a breakdown on how it was calculated in a tabular form below

The reason for this reduction in the price of the University Tertiary Matriculation Examination [UTME] form fee was however stated by the Joint Admission Matriculation Board [JAMB] in their last meeting.

The Board said that the reduction in the form and registration fee was brought about simply to alleviate the heavy burden of the cost of the examination on parents.

According to the Board’s Head of Media, Dr Fabian Benjamin He said this in a statement on Wednesday, November 28, 2018, while reacting to the reduction as earlier announced by the Federal Government.

When is UTME 2022/2023 Starting?

LATEST UPDATE: The JAMB 2022/2023 examination date finally been announced.

The JAMB 2022 examination date has been announced.

The 2022/23 UTME/JAMB Exam is scheduled to commence on Saturday, 5th to Saturday, 19th June 2022 at the various JAMB accredited centers nationwide.

Who are those Eligible to Register for 2022/2023 UTME Screening Exercise?

According to the JAMB registrar, Oloyede, He said,

It is difficult to say the exact number of applicants we are expecting this time. We expect to crash the number because many of those who are taking the forms are not even prepared or qualified for the exam. Some are SS1 students, who are just trying, contributing N5,000 unduly to our purse. We are putting in some checks to make people who want to apply to be minimally qualified. We are not interested in the money. We are interested in having adequate preparations for those who are genuine students.

Prof. Is-haq Oloyede

Logically, speaking, the reason is undoubtedly genuine and it isn’t advisable to write the JAMB exam while you have not had an idea of the secondary school scheme of work. Therefore it is very wrong to consider writing the JAMB examination while still in SS1.

A. CREATE A JAMB PROFILE.

Detail Guide On How To Create JAMB PROFILE

1. One Cell (mobile) number (SIM) can be used by one candidate only. The Cell phone number used for the text message is automatically tied to the Candidate’s name and will be used in all communications related to his/her 2020 Application, Examination/Admission. NOTE THE SIM-NUMBER USED. IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE FOR SUBSEQUENT COMMUNICATION
2. Candidate sends his/her name [Surname First-Name Middle- Name (if any)] by text (SMS) to 55019. This should be maximum of 38 characters + 2 spaces between names = 40 characters in all to 55019 e.g Olowomeye Temitope kolawole.
   Surname and first name are mandatory
3. Profile Code of 10 characters is received by the candidate on the same telephone (SIM) number
4. The candidate presents the profile code to the point of procurement of form (Banks, MMOs, MFBs, Switches, USSD Partners). The form- ePIN is then sent as a text message to the candidate
5. The candidate presents the ePIN at any JAMB accredited CBT Centre for registration

NOTICE: according to JAMB, no candidate should proceed to any CBT centre or register without first creating a profile. Candidates are therefore strongly advised to create a profile by sending their name (Surname First-name and Middle-name) via SMS to 55019

IMPORTANT WARNING.

You must not make the mistake of using the same SIM card previously used by another candidate to register for yourself.

A statement of fact from the media man himself Dr Fabian Benjamin, the quote;

No two persons must use a single GSM number in commencing the registration process as it will not be acceptable. The way it is configured is one individual to one telephone number that will remain exclusive to that single individual for the purpose of the entire examination process. Not even siblings are allowed to share a particular telephone number for this purpose.

JAMB Head of media– Dr. Fabian Benjamin.

What if you have a profile with JAMB before but you lost it, then you need not create another one because you can actually get it back. Just follow the flowing few steps to get your lost JAMB PROFILE code
