JAMB extends 2023 direct entry registration
JAMB has prolonged the deadline for the ongoing 2023 Direct Entry (DE) registration for an additional week. The DE registration started on March 20 and was initially supposed to end on April 20, but it will now close on April 28.
According to a statement by JAMB spokesman, Fabian Benjamin, the extension is to provide candidates with Cambridge A’Level results with the opportunity to verify their certificates during registration and allow other candidates more time to register.
The board has collaborated with the British Council to streamline the process of verifying the Cambridge A/L Certificate. This move led to JAMB reconsidering its earlier decision to exclude the Cambridge certificate for DE registration.
The holders of Cambridge Certificates, who want to register for the 2023 Direct Entry, can visit any of the board’s offices closest to them to register for the exercise. However, the board will not accept candidates who are waiting for their Cambridge certificates.
