The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the original result slips for candidates who sat for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
Candidates can now print their result slips through the JAMB portal. The release marks another key stage in the 2026 admission process.
The original result slip contains important details about each candidate. These include the candidate’s full name, registration number, passport photograph, institution choices, and UTME scores.
The document serves as the official record of a candidate’s examination performance. Universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education often require it during admission screening and verification.
JAMB urged candidates seeking admission to print their result slips early. The board also advised them to check all details carefully before submitting the document for admission purposes.
Candidates should report any errors or discrepancies through the appropriate JAMB channels. Taking early action can help them avoid delays during admission processing.
Many tertiary institutions require the original result slip as part of their admission requirements. Candidates who fail to provide the document may face challenges during screening exercises.
The release gives admission seekers an opportunity to complete one of the important steps in the admission process. It also allows institutions to begin preparations for screening and verification activities.
JAMB encouraged candidates to follow updates from the board and their preferred institutions. These updates will provide information on screening dates, admission requirements, and other important procedures.
As the admission season progresses, candidates must ensure they have all the required documents. The original result slip remains one of the most important documents for securing admission into a tertiary institution.
