The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has declared that there will be no extension of the registration deadline for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
Prospective candidates have been warned to complete their enrolment before February 26, 2026, or risk missing out on the examination entirely. JAMB emphasized that the deadline is final and urged students to avoid last-minute delays that could jeopardize their chances of sitting for the exam.
Officials noted that registration centers across the country remain open and advised candidates to make use of accredited outlets to ensure smooth processing. The announcement has sparked urgency among students, many of whom are rushing to finalize their applications ahead of the cutoff date.
