The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that registration for the 2025 Direct Entry (DE) application will commence on Wednesday.

The Board emphasized that the registration process is essential for candidates with degrees, diplomas, or A-level certificates who wish to gain admission into their preferred universities.

JAMB’s Public Communications Advisor, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja.

According to the statement, the commencement of DE registration follows the successful completion of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) application sales, which ended on Saturday, March 8, 2025.

“During this period, JAMB recorded a total of 2,030,627 registrations for the 2025 UTME, along with 200,115 for the Mock-UTME and 630 applications for the trial mock,” the statement said.

It added: “JAMB has emphasised the importance of adhering to all entry requirements, warning that serious penalties will be imposed on applications containing false declarations. A special committee will verify all submitted Advanced A Level Qualifications, and any fraudulent results will lead to prosecution. Additionally, institutions are encouraged to directly verify certificates before considering admissions.

“Registration can only be done at JAMB Professional Registration Centres(PRC).”
