JAMB: Registering Students in Groups at CBT Centers?

JAMB logo

Previously, I mentioned that JAMB had instituted a requirement for students to bring their phones to CBT centers for registration, along with the profiler codes. This information came to light when someone questioned why this was necessary.

I noted in that post that JAMB's intention was solely to prevent group-based registration at CBT centers, and it appears my observation was accurate.

In a recent development, the board has reiterated its stance against group registration at CBT centers.

JAMB has emphasized that students must adhere to the rules when registering. They have stated that each student must register individually and that group registration at CBT centers, a common practice among lesson owners, boarding schools, and private schools, is prohibited.

Regarding interactions on this matter, when femnath raised concerns that many CBT centers were refusing to register candidates without seeing the JAMB PIN on their phones, even if it was written on their registration forms, JAMB responded by affirming that UTME registration is individual-based, and group registration is highly prohibited.

CBT centers are making it difficult for students to register in groups by requesting the JAMB PIN from their phones, despite it being already provided on their registration forms.

Takeaway Points:

1. JAMB has clarified that students cannot register in groups at CBT centers.
2. The requirement for students to bring their phones for registration is aimed at preventing group-based registration.
3. Group registration at CBT centers is prohibited, with each student expected to register individually.
4. JAMB emphasized that UTME registration is individual-based, and group registration is strictly prohibited.
5. The board is closely monitoring CBT centers to ensure compliance with registration rules.
6. JAMB's decision aims to uphold fairness and integrity in the registration process.

Conclusion

JAMB's decision to disallow group registration reflects its commitment to ensuring fairness and equal opportunity during the registration process. The board is closely monitoring CBT centers and is prepared to take action against any centers found to be violating these rules.
