Explanation of why Change of Institution or course is not reflecting

If you're done the alternation recently on the JAMB portal but when you visit your school portal to continue with post UTME registration you're receiving an error that your information is not on the portal or database, this could mean:

JAMB has not sent your details to the school yet. Usually, JAMB will wait for enough students to do changes before they send the new list to your school. They do these couple of times before the school's post UTME ends.
The school has not uploaded your information received from JAMB to their database. Schools might have got your information but it usually takes a few days for the ICT to get all uploaded for the candidates to continue with their applications.

How long Will it take the Changes to Reflect on the School's portal?

Going by the explanation above, you should be rest assured that sooner or later your information will definitely reflect. A school that will not allow change of institution again will definitely inform you while on JAMB portal "This institution is no longer accepting new candidates"

And to answer your question, It usually takes a few days, weeks or month depending on the how much time the school has to end her registration.

A school that has couples of days to end the application, will be quick to update the portal within a few days of your changes. A school may take enough time if she has weeks to the end of the exercise. This will allow them to upload at once those who had changed to them in the past few weeks.
