JAMB ALERT - Closing Date of JAMB Change of Course/Institution For 2015

ALERT: The Closing Date of JAMB Change of Course/Institution for 2015 has been announced. We're not sure if there will be any extension in the date but you should do well to ensure you effect your changes before the above stated date.

Please avoid trying to play smart

by waiting to see if your current school of choice would release cut-off, before taking a decision to make your changes. Based on history, schools will not release their post-UTME cut-off or procedures until the change of course is over, no matter the extension.

Do your research based on previous post-UTME cut-offs and information and effect your changes immediately. Please DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE.

NOTE: This service currently on-going. We expect it to close on 17th April so ensure you make your changes before then.

WARNING: Please read this entire document before proceeding. This process can only be done once and changes can never be undone.

We cannot help you rectify errors and will not be liable for any errors made outside using our procedures for your JAMB change of course/institution as stated below.

  

Many Cyber Cafes have begun helping candidates to change their 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th choice courses or institutions. These changes are done by our staff, and our changes are done to reflect on the JAMB System immediately.

 

• Reasons why you may want to change your Course or Insititution

There are obviously three good reasons why a candidate may need to change his/her jamb choice of course or institution or both:

»  Due to Low UTME score:

After the release of Jamb results, the next thing to face is post-UTME and admissions. Now take for instance that someone applied for a federal university who will probably fix a cut-off mark of 200 and above; if such candidate scored less than 200, it simply means he/she has lost the admission. In this case the change of institution to a state-owned/private University becomes necessary. State universities generally fix cut-off marks below 200.

» Due to Low UTME score:

Just like the case above, this happens when a candidate chose a very competitive course like Law, Medicine and Surgery, Pharmacy, Engineering, etc. Several courses have greater number of applicants than others and such courses invariably attract very high cut-off marks. To avoid being left aside a candidate is advised to go for change of course within the same institution/faculty.

» Incomplete O'level results

In this case candidates who may have ran into deficiency of required credit passes in some key/relevant subjects may decide to go for change of course to accommodate themselves.

» Mistakes during registration

Was there a mistake while filling your registration by either you or the business/cyber cafe? With this help, you can now correct any errors made during registration of your course or institution.

» Other causes

These includes several factors ranging from finance, change in Geographical locations, Parent's suggestions, Fear of Tribal differences, etc. Such cases treated under this heading result to change of institution.
