According to the Board, as at Friday morning, only 12,442 out of 98,232 registered candidates had printed their notification slips, representing just 12.6 per cent.
JAMB’s spokesperson, Dr Fabian Benjamin, in a statement described the situation as worrisome and urged affected candidates to act immediately.
“We strongly encourage all candidates, especially those who missed the main examination, to print their notification slips promptly. This is a rare opportunity for them to participate in this year’s UTME,” he said.

He reiterated that failure to print the slip means that candidates would forfeit the opportunity to sit for the mop-up exam.
Dr. Benjamin said JAMB had deployed necessary human and material resources to ensure a smooth process and was closely monitoring the situation to gauge likely attendance.
He advised all the candidates to visit the Board’s official portal and print their examination slips immediately to avoid missing the final chance to sit for the 2025 UTME.
