If you're unsure whether your admission is genuine or recognized by JAMB, follow these verified steps:
1. Check the JAMB Matriculation List
This is one of the most reliable ways to confirm your admission.
Steps:
- Visit: [https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/CheckMatriculationList]
- Navigate to “Matriculation List”
- Enter your JAMB Registration Number and select your exam year.
- If your name appears, it means your admission is valid and recognized by JAMB.
IMPORTANT:
Your name will only appear on the matriculation list if you have:
- Printed your Original JAMB Result Slip (paid for and printed)
- Printed your JAMB Admission Letter
If you haven’t done both, your name will not show even if you've been admitted.
2. Verify on CAPS (Central Admission Processing System)
- Go to your JAMB profile and check Admission Status under CAPS.
- If it shows “Admitted”, and lists your course and school, your admission is real.
- If it says “Not Admitted”, any other claim of admission is likely fake.
3. Print JAMB Admission Letter
- Still on your JAMB profile, go to Print Admission Letter.
- If you're able to print it successfully, then your admission is 100% authentic.
- If the system says you’re not admitted, your admission is not recognized.
4. Beware of Unaccredited Institutions
- Some platforms or schools (like “ScoopWater” or unverified agents) may offer fake admissions.
- Always check if the institution is on JAMB’s list of approved schools.
5. Do JAMB Regularization if Needed
If you got admission through your school directly (without JAMB), and your name isn’t on the matriculation list, you must do JAMB regularization to validate it.
SUMMARY:
To confirm your admission is real:
- Check CAPS (Admitted)
- Print Admission Letter + Original Result
- Check Matriculation List (your name should appear after the above)
If all of these line up — your admission is valid and JAMB-approved.
