The easiest way to link email to JAMB profile/CAPS |
For your information, you all created your profiles during JAMB/DE registration when you sent your NIN to 55019. With that, JAMB has imported your National ID card information into your JAMB profile. Hence, the information on your NIN is the same as that on your JAMB profile.
However, unlike the previous year's candidates, you weren't able to log in to that profile because there is a new method to be able to do that. You will learn about the new method in this post.
I will cover:
- how to link email with your JAMB profile using SMS
- how to link without using SMS
All UTME and DE Applicants Must Link Their Functioning Emails With Their Profiles First
The new method requires all UTME and DE candidates to link their emails with their JAMB profile first using SMS platforms. This was because, during your JAMB UTME/DE registration, no candidate was asked to provide an email for the profile creation. Though you might have used email to buy PIN, that didn't mean you used email for the registration per se.
Hence, in other to log in to your profile, starting from the 2021/2022 admission year, you must now create an email if you don't have one already. Then, link it with your existing JAMB profile.
If you have one already, confirm, first, that you can successfully log in to that email before you use it for the activity below.

How to Link Your Working Email with Your JAMB Profile Using SMS
Below is the step-by-step guide to linking your existing email to the JAMB Profile. Note that, this method may not work for a long time as JAMB is having a problem with this method right now.
- On your mobile phone (using the line used to get your profile code), text as follows: "email youremail youremail" and send to 55019.
- For example, text email [email protected] [email protected]
- Now, send it to 55019
- Note that the first word I typed was "email" followed by space, followed by the email, followed by space, and then the email again
- In my case, it will look like, email [email protected] [email protected]
- After sending the message to 55019, your line will be debited at #50
- After this, log in to your email and look for an email message from JAMB
- The email message will contain a unique password (e.g. candb26ec1) that you will be using to log in to your JAMB profile.
- Now, visit https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/Login. Here, you will use the email and the password received from JAMB to you to log in.
That's all!
How To Link Your Email to the JAMB Profile Using a CBT Centre
During the UTME 2024 registration, some CBT centers asked for your email and linked it to your JAMB portal straightaway. Candidates can confirm if this is applicable to them if they check the registration slips given to them and see if the email is on the printout.
If your JAMB registration slip already contains or shows the email, you don't need to do any linking again. In other words, the CBT has already linked the email to your JAMB portal. That's why the registration has the email on it.
However, if instead of seeing your email on the registration slip, you only have your phone number and "none" in the email space, you will need to do the linking. Let's follow the procedures below.
For some reasons, especially now that the SMS method may not be working,
- if you don't have the phone number used for the JAMB registration again
- if you don't have a phone to do the SMS or to access email
- or any other reasons, whatsoever, which may not make the SMS method work for you,
you can just use the service of any accredited CBT center around you. These people will manually link your email with your JAMB profile and help access your email to retrieve the password to be sent to you.

Link Your Email With the JAMB Portal Using Change of Institutions/Courses
You can also link your email with the JAMB portal using the change of institutions and courses if you have not done it by walking into a CBT center as already said in the section above.
If you do a change of institutions and/or courses after the release of your JAMB result, you've automatically linked your email too. In other words, the process of doing the change of institutions at any CBT center requires the center to first link your email before they can access your JAMB portal and effect the changes.
Even if they didn't tell you that they've linked your email as of the time of the changes, once they did the changes for you, you could be certain that the email had been linked.
Just log in to your JAMB portal using the email given to them (or created) during the change of institutions and/or courses and fetch out your JAMB-give password. The email together with the password can then be used to access your JAMB portal henceforth.

How To Access CAPS After Linking Your Email to Your JAMB Profile
Of course, as soon as you log in to your CAPS as directed above, you're ultimately on your JAMB CAPS.
But in order to specifically proceed to the JAMB CAPS section inside your profile, follow the guide below.
- On your profile dashboard, scroll up to locate "Check Admission Status" and click on that
- On the resulting page, choose your year of admission and enter your JAMB registration number (if it's not already there).
- On this page, you can Access CAPS (on the left) or Check Admission Status (on the right). Since we're talking of the CAPS checking, for now, click on the former.
- On the next page, you will see "Welcome" at the top of the page and other facilities by the left of the page.
NOTE: Those using phones should use Chrome here to see other facilities. Then, make sure you set your page to a Desktop Site. To do that, click on the three dots at the top or bottom corner of your browser. Then, choose the Desktop Site. The left side of the "welcome" will appear. See more through, "JAMB Profile/CAPS is Blank with "Welcome", Solutions!"
Recommended Post: How to Check Admission Status Through SMS
On Getting to Your CAPS Section, You Can Access the Following
Checking your JAMB CAPS, you will have access to the following facilities. Below are their meanings and how they can be of help.
- My Profile: This will show your basic bio-data including name, gender, date of birth, state of origin, and UTME score.
- My O'Level: This shows if your O'level results were truly uploaded by the CBT center you used.
- Admission Status: This is where you will see the school that offers (or will offer) you admission. There, you'll accept or reject the offer. See Institution and Course Not Showing (Blank) in CAPS? Reasons and Solutions
- Marketplace: If your main proposed school refuses to give you admission, JAMB may present you with a few other institutions with available spaces. Then, you're to accept or reject such an open offer in the marketplace. See JAMB Marketplace Gives You Admission to Other Universities
- Transfer Approval: Here is a place to know if your proposed first-choice institution is trying to offer you another course than what you proposed. If you accept, you will be offered the new course. If otherwise, you will remain with the old one. And your chance in the old one may not be that broad. See Is it Advisable to Accept Another Course Than The One I Applied For?

That you will use to buy JAMB form this year too.

If that is sent, that is what you will use. If it sends another code, you will use the new code instead.

Because the phone number I used before is available and If they send a message to that other email I don't think I can log into it because I have forgotten the password .. the email is not in this my phone so I will have to log it in but I have for gotten the password
