The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board(JAMB) has announced the extension of the deadline for the ongoing Direct Entry (DE) registration for candidates seeking admission into universities.
This was contained in a statement by the board’s Head, Public Affairs and Protocol, Dr. Fabian Benjamin in Abuja on Sunday.
Benjamin said the board had postponed the continuation of its DE registration, which was scheduled to close on Thursday, April 20 but was extended by one week to continue on Saturday, May 6, when the 2023 UTME and the national census exercise would have ended.
“This development is to accommodate the conduct of the board’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination(UTME) billed to start on Tuesday, April 25, and end on Wednesday, May, 3.
“It is also to accommodate the National Census scheduled to start on Wednesday, May 3, and end on Friday, May, 5.
