Understanding JAMB Direct Entry

JAMB Direct Entry serves as an avenue for candidates with advanced qualifications such as A-levels, National Diploma (ND), Higher National Diploma (HND), NCE, or equivalent certifications to gain admission into the second year (200 level) of degree programs in Nigerian universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education. It offers an alternative route to the traditional UTME (Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination) for eligible candidates.

However, applications from candidates of any awarding institutions, yet to verify their A Level certificates for the 2023 admission will not be processed. 

Direct Entry Applicants, who are not awaiting results, should have their A level, O level, and DE registration template uploaded at the point of registration for verification and uploading by the awarding institutions on the Board’s Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) mail platform.

Applicants awaiting A-level results, O-level, and DE registration template at the time of registration should have their admission letter and registration template uploaded during registration. Applicants with the pre-2018 examination year Cambridge certificates should check Cambridge directly for verification.  

The verification process for the Direct Entry application is expected to last up to 28 days. After which it would be sent to the board. It would also reflect on the e-facility profile of the DE applicants. 

All applicants should note that instead of a certificate, a statement of results would be allowed for registration within 3 years of the award date. Also, applicants whose DE results are yet to be released at the point of registration and are awaiting A-level results can upgrade from UTME to Direct Entry.
