JAMB Extends DE Registration by 14days
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has extended the 2024 Direct Entry (DE) registration by two weeks.
The extension is to allow for more willing candidates to register for the examination, said a statement signed by JAMB spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin.
The 2024 Direct Entry registration commenced on Wednesday, 28 February, and was supposed to end on Thursday, 28 March.
According to Fabian, “But on subsequent consideration, JAMB has now extended the exercise by two weeks from Wednesday, 28 March 2024,”
He added that the new deadline for registration is Thursday, 11 April.
In his words, “The extension became necessary following the challenges faced by candidates in going through some of the security screening measures put in place to tackle the cases of fake A’level certificates being paraded by some DE candidates.”
“The Board, therefore, apologized for the inconveniences caused, pledging that going forward, the process would be made more user-friendly.”
