JAMB urged 2024 UTME candidates to disregard malicious 'reprinting' information flying about on social media.

The board assured candidates and parents that the printing of examination slips would soon be available.

“This is to inform all 2024 UTME candidates that Examination Slip printing is not available at the moment. You're therefore urged to disregard malicious 'reprinting' information flying about on social media. However, the service will be available soon. Stay tuned for details.”

Legit.ng recalls that JAMB on Thursday, March 28, said the examination slip printing would be communicated to the candidates in due course. The entrance examination board for tertiary-level institutions stated this while responding to a tweet.

Without this slip, candidates may face difficulties gaining entry into the examination hall.

Every year, JAMB conducts the UTME in Nigeria. A student's score will determine whether he or she will be admitted to higher education (university, polytechnics, college of education, and others).
