After JAMB Change of Course & Institution
I get many questions from students who recently did a JAMB Change of Course or Institution about their inability to register for their Institution of Choice Post UTME examinations.
It would take a few days to about a week for your changes on the JAMB portal to reflect on your profile and register for the Post UTME screening.
The good news is that Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education in Nigeria would always ensure that all students can register for their screening exercise.
