JAMB Hikes UTME Fees For 2024, Releases DE Application Schedule

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced an adjustment in the registration fees for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for the year 2024.

According to an official statement by JAMB, the revised registration fees for UTME are now N7,700, inclusive of a mock examination, and N6,200 for UTME registration without the mock examination.

Previously, the cost of the JAMB form without a mock exam stood at N5,700, while the application form inclusive of a mock exam was priced at N6,700.

Foreign candidates seeking to obtain the application documents will now do so at a fee of $30.

JAMB is expected to provide a comprehensive breakdown of these fees upon releasing the registration details on or before January 15, 2024.

In addition to the adjustments in UTME registration fees, JAMB has unveiled the registration period for the sale of Direct Entry (DE) application documents in 2024.

The sale of Direct Entry application documents is scheduled to commence on February 28, 2024, and will conclude on March 28, 2024.

As the process of creating profile codes for registration is currently ongoing, JAMB has advised prospective candidates to stay updated on official announcements and guidelines to facilitate a smooth registration process.

Detailed guidelines on profile code generation will be provided closer to the registration commencement date on January 15, 2024.

“This is to inform all prospective 2024 UTME/DE candidates that creation of Profiles for registration has officially started, while the sale of application documents will commence on Monday 15th January 2024,” JAMB wrote on its official X page. “You are to please take note of the following important dates for the coming UTME/DE exercise.”
