To recover a forgotten JAMB profile password, you can either send an SMS with "password [your email]" to 55019 for a new password or send "Reset Password" to 55019, both methods costing N50 and requiring the phone number used for registration and knowledge of your JAMB email.
I have really tried to help several students who forgot their JAMB profile passwords. I felt their pains because several candidates had chatted with me with faces of worry.
Imagine what it would be like if you lost your JAMB profile password without help. You can't check CAPS. You can't see your admission status. And if offered admission, you can neither accept nor print the admission letter.
This is why I gave about 5 ways to get a lost profile password or email password as the case may be.
As if that was not enough, I let you know when JAMB opened her official online contact medium through which you could directly report issues of any sort to the matriculation board. This would be helpful if you want to avoid visiting JAMB state branches in the country before you can solve a problem.

Those who have read the posts above had been helped. Yet, a few were not getting things done. Why?
Some had forgotten the passwords to their emails. Some didn't have access to the phone numbers they used for security codes during the email registration. Some used Yahoo Mail for their profiles. And in most cases, Yahoo accounts had not been receiving reset links from JAMB even if you tried to reset your JAMB password through forget password link available on the JAMB portal.
The problem has led several CBT centers and unscrupulous cafes to be exploiting students before they could help them out. This is why I had to contact JAMB for other ways around this issue.
You should be happy with my findings - JAMB has finally given you a universal method to get your lost JAMB profile password back without any visit to a café or CBT center or even the JAMB office anywhere in Nigeria.

Though there are three conditions attached to that anyway.
Though there are three conditions attached to that anyway.
- You must know your JAMB email. You can easily get that on your JAMB UTME registration or exams slip except if you've not linked the email yet. Luckily, it's never too late to link it now.
- You must still have the phone line you used for JAMB registration active on a phone. If you've lost that, all it takes is to do the welcome back or retrieve that at any MTN, GLO, 9mobile, Airtel offices, or affiliated shops around you.
- You must be ready to spend just N50.

JAMB Official Method to Get Back Your Forgotten Profile Password
Method 1:
- Get your phone on. Make sure you have at least N50 loaded or left on your account.
- Go to the message and send the "password (space) email used for JAMB" to 55019
- For example, password [email protected] to 55019
- A message below will arrive on your phone in a moment.
Your request has been received and is being processed, you will get a response shortly. The service will cost you #50.
After this, N50 will be deducted from your account and another message containing a new password will be sent to you as below.
Your new Login details email: [email protected], Pwd: cand9ab3db
Method 2:
- You can reset your password by sending an SMS "Reset Password" to 55019 using the SIM used during registration.
- You'll be debited at #50
- A message will be sent back to you with a new password.
Conclusion
This is the last resort if you have done everything possible to get back your JAMB profile password. You don't need a café man to do this. No need to beg for a CBT for help. Don't let anyone exploit you.
Best of luck!
