The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has revised the registration fees for its Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) scheduled for 2024, reflecting an increase for both applicants opting for and skipping the mock exam.
Under the new structure, UTME hopefuls seeking to take the practice exam will pay N7,700, while those choosing to forego the mock will part with N6,200. Previously, fees stood at N6,700 with mock and N5,700 without.
According to the statement, the board is expected to provide a detailed breakdown of these fees when it unveils the registration details on or before January 15, 2024.
JAMB Announces Registration Date For DE, Profile Creation
In the statement, JAMB also announced the registration period for its Direct Entry (DE) programme for the year 2024.
“This is to notify all potential 2024 UTME/DE candidates that the sale of application materials will begin on Monday, January 15, 2024, and that profile creation for registration has officially begun,” JAMB said.
The board said the sale of DE application documents will begin on February 28, 2024, and end on March 28, 2024.
It said the process of creating profile codes for registration is currently in progress.
“Detailed guidelines on how to generate profile codes will be disseminated at a later date, leading up to the initiation of registration on January 15, 2024,” the statement added.
Last month, JAMB announced that registration for its 2024 UTME will be held between January 15 and February 26.
The board said the conduct of the UTME would commence on March 19 and end on April 29.
JAMB also fixed March 7 for the conduct of its optional mock UTME. The exam body said all candidates are expected to print their examination slips from April 10, 2024.
