What the Different Admission Messages Mean on JAMB CAPS
Not every candidate will see “Congratulations” immediately. Here’s what the different responses mean:
- Admission Offered – JAMB has approved your admission. You can now accept or reject it instantly.
- Admission in Progress (AIP) – The school has forwarded your name, but JAMB is still reviewing.
- Recommended – Your school has proposed your name, awaiting JAMB’s final approval.
- Not Admitted – Your name has not been uploaded yet. Don’t panic, more batches may follow.
- Pending – No final decision yet. Your application is still under consideration.
What to Do After Admission is Offered
If your status shows “Admission Offered,” don’t delay. Take these steps immediately:
- Send ACCEPT or REJECT as an SMS to 55019 or 66019 using the phone number linked to your JAMB profile.
- After accepting, go ahead and print your JAMB Admission Letter—this document will be needed for clearance and registration at ABU.
