The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has
asked all prospective candidates for the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation
Examinations (UTME) to acquire their National Identification Number (NIN) ahead
of the exercise.
The board stated this on Monday in its weekly bulletin
released by the Office of the Registrar in Abuja.
JAMB said that it would soon start the sale of application
documents and registration for the 2022 UTME and Direct Entry(DE).
“The board, is at the moment, engaging its core
functionaries in a series of intensive training to ensure that once the date is
announced, the stage would have been set for yet another hitch-free exercise.
“The release of this information is in line with the board’s
firm determination to ensure that candidates who are desirous of enrolling are
ready and prepared.
“Similarly, it is expected to serve as a wake-up call to all
who may want to register, to first obtain their NIN, a major prerequisite for
the UTME registration.
“For those who may want to obtain any of the two application
documents, they are advised to get their NIN and also familiarise themselves
with the board’s Integrated Brochure and Syllabus System (IBASS).
“It will give them an idea of the course requirements and
the syllabus they are expected to cover for the examination,” the board said.
According to JAMB, IBASS is on the board’s website and can
also be downloaded on Google Playstore and other similar platforms.
The board said that the next step was for candidates to
create their profiles by sending their NIN to 55019.
JAMB added that it had put adequate measures in place to
checkmate those who might want to cheat.
It said that it had also strengthened all administrative
procedures for the smooth prosecution of any candidate, centre or staff of JAMB
found to have been involved in an infraction.
