Introduction
JAMB regularization is the process of correcting errors on your JAMB registration details or O’level results after you’ve already registered for UTME. Maybe you made a mistake entering your name, age, state of origin, or subject grade. Regularization allows you to amend these details so your registration and results are correct before your exams.
The regularization process is done through the JAMB e-Facility portal. To use the portal, you will need:
- Your JAMB registration number from your UTME registration
- A recent passport photograph
- Evidence of payment of the regularization fees (around N2,500)
Once you have these, you can log in to the e-Facility portal and select ‘Regularization of Data’ to get started. Here you will be able to view your current registration details and make any necessary amendments or corrections. Be very careful when entering the corrected information, as no further changes will be allowed after you submit.
Double-check that all the details – your name, age, state of origin, and O’level grades – are correctly entered. Even small errors can cause issues later on. It’s best to have your O’level result slips on hand to verify subject grades.
When you are fully satisfied, submit your corrections. Your amended details will now appear on your profile and statement of result. With the regularization complete, you can proceed confidently to your UTME exam.
Regularization may seem like an inconvenience, but ensuring your registration details are 100% accurate is worth the effort for a smooth JAMB experience. Take the time to get it right!
Documents Required for JAMB Regularization
To complete JAMB regularization, you’ll need to gather some important documents. The specific papers required depend on your unique situation, but here’s an overview of what you may need:
1. Educational Certificates
Copies of your high school diplomas, statements of results (SSCE/WASSCE), or other relevant academic certificates will likely be requested. Make sure you have the originals and several printed copies on hand.
2. Birth Certificate
An original copy of your birth certificate is essential for confirming your identity and age. If you don’t have your birth certificate, you can obtain a new certified copy from the National Population Commission.
3. Evidence of Name Change (If Applicable)
If your current name is different from the name on your birth certificate or other documents, you’ll need to provide evidence of the legal name change, such as a sworn affidavit or newspaper publication.
4. Passport Photographs
You’ll need to provide several recent passport-style photos of yourself for your JAMB regularization records. The photos must be in color, with a white background and full-face view directly facing the camera.
5. Payment Receipts
Don’t forget to bring copies of your payment receipts as evidence that you’ve paid all necessary JAMB regularization fees. The specific fees depend on the services you need.
