UTME: Everything You Need To Know About 2023 Jamb Registration, Scheduled Dates

Registration for the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) will begin on January 24 and run through February 14, 2023, with approval from the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).

The Board also decided to have an optional mock UTME on March 16, 2023.

This was said in a statement released on Tuesday in Abuja by Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the board’s head of public affairs and protocol.

The registration for Direct Entry (DE) application materials is not included on the board, according to Benjamin, because DE registration will start on February 20 and end on April 20, 2023.

Furthermore, he stated that the board fixed April 29, 2023, for the conduct of the 2023 UTME, and is anticipated to end on May 12, 2023, after taking into account its other commitments.

According to him, “Candidates are to note that they would be required to pay the sum of N1000 service charge for CBT centres for the conduct of mock examination at the point of registration.

“This is to prevent a situation where candidates would indicate their interest to sit the mock UTME leading the various centres to commit human and material resources only for them to stay away on the day of the examination.

“With the new arrangement, candidates indicate their interest by paying for the mock at the point of UTME registration, therefore, precluding the centres from incurring any loss whether candidates turn up or not.

“The board advises all candidates, who desire to register for the 2023 UTME to immediately embark on the creation of their respective profiles (creation of profile code) ahead of the formal commencement of the registration exercise to avoid being caught up in any ensuing bottleneck.”
