JAMB shares specified method to obtain 2024 UTME results
Recall that the UTME 2024 which began on Friday, April 19, ended on Monday, April 29 but JAMB urged candidates to simply send UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 to access their scores in the exam.
The statement read:
“The Board, once again, wishes to state clearly that the only way to check the 2024 UTME result is to send UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone used by the candidate in registering for the UTME exercise. Ensure that the SIM is not on any bundle.
“This is different from what was obtained last year, hence, the results, at the moment, are not and cannot be found on the board’s website."
