To satisfy and enable all intending candidates register, The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has extended the 2024 Direct Entry registration by two weeks.
In a statement released yesterday by JAMB Public Communication Advisor (PCA), Dr Fabian Benjamin, it was disclosed that the Board commenced the 2024 Direct Entry on February 28, 2024 and was to have concluded it on March 28, but on subsequent consideration, decided to extend the exercise by a period of two weeks from March 28, 2024 to April 11, 2024.
According to the board, the extension became necessary following complaints about challenges being faced by candidates in going through some of the security measures put in place to address the rampant cases of fake A’level certificates being paraded by some candidates.
“The Board apologises for the inconveniences caused prospective DE candidates and pledges that, going forward, the process would be made more user-friendly.”
“It is also to be noted that candidates whose certificate-issuing institutions are among those on the list of institutions that have not verified their certificates despite repeated requests would not be allowed to register without doing the needful,” he stated.
