JAMB, in its weekly Bulletin obtained in Abuja, noted that by conducting the UTME in the foreign locations, the Board aimed to showcase Nigerian tertiary institutions to a global audience, placing them at par with their international counterparts.

“This initiative has successfully attracted international students to Nigerian universities. Furthermore, JAMB has incorporated the number of foreign students admitted by an institution as a criterion for the NATAP M-Award, recognizing institutions that excel in international student recruitment,” it stated.

Meanwhile, the Board has reaffirmed that the 2024 admission exercise will soon commence as arrangements have been concluded for the Admission Policy Meeting on Thursday, July 18.
