JAMB Says Undergraduates Can Take UTME But Must Declare Status .

JAMB says undergraduates can take the UTME, but they must openly declare their current matriculation status during registration or risk losing both their existing admission and any new one they secure.

The board insists that it never banned undergraduates from writing the exam and blames the confusion on misleading interpretations from self‑styled education advocates who misrepresented its guidelines..

JAMB stressed that the rule is meant to curb multiple admissions and stop candidates from acting as professional exam takers.
