The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has issued a warning to Advanced Level candidates applying for 2023 admissions, stressing that the processing of Direct Entry admissions will require certificate verification.
The Board also has indicated that the admission process for the upcoming academic year will be concluded shortly.
JAMB made this disclosure in a statement issued on the its official X, formerly Twitter handle on Friday.
The Board told the candidates to contact their former institutions for prompt verification of their certificates, noting that it would not consider all affected students of non-responsive institutions for admissions for the academic year.
JAMB made it clear that it had written to all tertiary institutions that issued the certificates but a significant number of them responded positively, while others have not.
The statement read,“This is to inform all A-Level candidates that applied for the 2023 admissions through Direct Entry (DE) to contact their former institutions for prompt verification of their certificates.
“To expedite the verification process, the Board on its part has written to all tertiary institutions that issued the certificates and a significant number of them have responded positively, while others have been lackadaisical.
“You are to hereby note that the Board would not process any DE admission without certificate verification and that admission process for the academic year would soon be concluded.
“As such, the Board would not consider all affected students of non-responsive institutions for admissions for the academic year.”
The examination body further provided link for candidates to access the list of the non-responsive institutions.
