Post-UTME forms. In a recent announcement, JAMB stated that all admission processes must be conducted exclusively through their platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This decision comes as a significant change in the admission process for Nigerian universities. Previously, universities had the autonomy to conduct their own Post-UTME examinations and sell forms to prospective students. However, JAMB’s new directive aims to streamline the admission process and ensure fairness and transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to JAMB, this move will help eliminate the challenges faced by students during the admission process, such as multiple examinations and exorbitant fees. By centralizing the admission process, JAMB aims to create a more efficient and standardized system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The decision has received mixed reactions from stakeholders in the education sector. While some believe that this move will simplify the admission process and reduce the financial burden on students, others express concerns about the potential impact on the autonomy of universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In response to these concerns, JAMB has assured universities that they will still have the authority to set their admission criteria and determine the cutoff marks for various courses. However, the actual admission process, including the screening of candidates, will now be conducted through JAMB’s platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This development is expected to have a significant impact on universities’ revenue streams, as they will no longer be able to generate income from the sale of Post-UTME forms. It remains to be seen how universities will adapt to this new directive and find alternative sources of funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overall, JAMB’s decision to stop universities from selling Post-UTME forms marks a significant shift in the admission process in Nigeria. While it aims to streamline the system and ensure fairness, its implementation and impact on universities will be closely monitored in the coming months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
