JAMB 2023 UTME results to be released May 2nd, rescheduled exams to hold May 6th

JAMB has disclosed that the Board will start releasing the results of the 2023 UTME from Tuesday, May 2, 2023. This was contained in the minutes of the meeting held at the end of an emergency management meeting held over the weekend in Abuja.

The board noted that the delay in the release of results was due to the fact that it wanted to ensure that all necessary screenings were concluded. The board also disclosed that candidates who who sat the examination but had challenges without being aware of such, would not see their results but would instead see their notification for rescheduled examination.

Similarly, the examination body also noted that three categories of candidates who missed their examinations had been rescheduled for mop-up examinations. Candidates under these categories are principally those who were verified at their centres but could not sit the examination; those who could not be biometrically verified, and those with mismatched data.

As part of the decisions reached at the end of an emergency management meeting held on Sunday, 31st April 2023, the Board has fixed Saturday, 6th May 2023, for all categories of candidates who have not sat their examination, as mentioned above, to take their examination. According to the statement, all candidates who sat the examination are urged to check their results on or before Thursday, 8th May, 2023.
