The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) announced on Tuesday night – 6th February 2018, on their official website that the 2018 UTME registration has been extended to midnight of Sunday, 11th February 2018.
The statement reads: JAMB as a responsive organization has taken the decision albeit with great hesitation to accommodate candidates who failed to register between the two months window period that ended at midnight of Tuesday, 6th February, 2018. The failure of these candidates to register is unfortunate and the Board hastens to add that this culture of impunity will not be tolerated henceforth. Indeed penalty will be imposed for late registration from the next session. UTME candidates are therefore strongly advised to take advantage of the extension to register as a request for further extension would not be entertained.
Registration for Direct Entry candidates however continues. For emphasis, 2018 UTME registration now closes at midnight on Sunday, 11th February 2018
