The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says the 2021 mock Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), earlier scheduled for April 30, will now hold on May 20.
In a statement released yesterday by its spokesperson, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the change of date was due to some ongoing adjustments in the board’s operational processes.
It however said other schedules, including the date for the UTME fixed for June 5 to 19, 2021, would not be affected, adding that candidates who have registered and have chosen to sit for the mock and other critical stakeholders should note this change of date.
The board also noted that the 2021 UTME and Direct Entry (DE) registration was ongoing and also scheduled to end on May 15.
Candidates, the board said, were to first generate their profiles by sending their details to 55019.
“The right process is to send the word “NIN”, allow one space in between, then insert the eleven digits NIN number and send to 55019, that is; NIN 00000000000.
