[Must Read] JAMB Printed Admission Letter - All You Need to Know

Lately, we have received a lot of inquiries 
from UTME and Direct Entry (DE) candidates 
trying to verify the authenticity of their 
admission as appeared on their institution of 
choice' website but not on JAMB website. 
 
The candidates have asked questions like "My 
name is on the admission list published on my 
school of choice' website, but my admission 
status on JAMB website says No Admission 
Offered Yet, does it mean my admission is 
fake?" 
 
We want to categorically state that your 
admission is authentic if it appeared on your 
school's official website, even when it is yet to 
appear on Jamb website. Anybody who says 
otherwise is simply misleading you for selfish 
interests! 
 
Some persons online also claim that if 
candidates does not have the JAMB admission 
letter purchased through them, such 
candidates were not actually admitted, even 
when their names appeared on their school's 
admission list. That's a fallacy ! 
There are a lot of reasons why some 
candidates' name may be on school's 
admission list but not on Jamb website and 
thus cannot print the Jamb admission letter. 
Such candidates admission are very much 
valid!

Let's clear some misconceptions with the 
following points; 
 
1) Ideally, the Joint Admissions and 
Matriculation Board ( JAMB) had sole 
responsibility to determine who was admitted 
into any higher institution in Nigeria, but now, 
the schools actually has the final say on who 
gets admitted, and thus is the only place you 
can really get help whenever you have trouble 
with your admission. 
 
2) JAMB does not have any other way to 
determine who is qualified for admission but 
through the schools who organized Post Utme 
screening tests. The admission lists on JAMB 
website were first approved by the schools. 
If you get the "no admission offered yet" 
response on JAMB website when your name 
has actually appeared on your school's 
admission list, it's simply because JAMB is yet 
to update their database with your details or 
due to some errors while processing your 
information which will definitely be sorted out 
through your school. 
In the case of double admission (I.e. 
Candidates admitted into two different 
institutions), Such candidates need to reject 
the less preferred admission and accept the 
more preferred one by following the 
instructions supplied by the schools for such 
cases. 
 
3) Many schools actually do not compulsorily 
ask for the admission letter printed from 
JAMB website before admitted candidates can 
be accepted to the school. Some schools even 
issue the admission letter themselves. 
Therefore, whenever your name appears on 
your school of choice' admission list, we 
advice you get to the school first, then follow 
the instructions outlined there (and no where 
else) to accept your admission and proceed 
with your registration. 
 
4) The JAMB admission letter is of course an 
important document but you shouldn't be in a 
rush to get one to avoid falling into the hands 
of scammers. Only print the admission letter 
when you are requested to do so by your 
school. 
Some schools request their students to pay 
certain amount of money to process the 
admission letter and validate their admission 
even years after the admitted candidates have 
already matriculated. 
In the case of students admitted through pre- 
degree and other related programs whose 
names never appeared on JAMB website, they 
will need to regularize their admission with 
JAMB by following the instructions provided at 
their school's admission unit. 
 
5) You can always get the JAMB admission 
letter anytime, even years after you were 
admitted and you can do it yourself. You do 
not need anyone to charge you outrageous 
fees to get it for you. 
You should also beware of scammers who 
now send fake JAMB admission letters. A 
word is enough for the wise!

Married In School, Single At Home

Thinking about this topic, I’ve been wondering 
who the focus of this post 
should be – girls or 
guys or both. In almost every tertiary institution in Nigeria,you find ‘undergraduate couples’ living as husbands and wives. You find a lot of these misguided people in virtually all schools. It’s 
so bad that, often times,they are duly 
recognised and acknowledged as couples by lodge neighbours, classmates and even 
leaders of various students associations. 
. 
Little wonder there is such an award as “The best couple of the year award” shamelessly and 
thoughtlessly received by 
students..Like I said 
earlier, I really don’t know the particular 
gender to address but let me just keep typing. 
The rate at which girls live with their boyfriends in their various off campus hostels is painfully alarming. 
. 
Most times, these young girls are very beautiful, with bright and promising future.They cohabit with boys 
who are their fellow students as roommates. 
The lugubrious 
part of it is that the silly girl would always 
introduce the small boy as her fiancé..Our 
society is really sick courtesy of those that live 
in it. These girls collect either hostel fees or 
house rents from unsuspecting (and 
sometimes, struggling)parents 
and end up in the house of a boy. You struggled possibly for several years to gain admission. Then you suddenly became a prayer warrior posting and shouting ‘Amen’ at the slighted provocation. 
You fasted. You had one prayer point filled 
with promises of your loyalty and devotion to 
God if only He would answer your prayer. Now 
that He has fulfilled His part by answering and 
granting you admission, don’t you think He is 
expecting you to fulfill your own part, to keep 
whatever promises you made to Him??. 
. 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Many of you just got admission and once you 
settle down (especially from your second year) 
, crazy thoughts will begin to creep into your 
minds. Yes by then, the heat of the rush would 
have been over; If God didn’t capture you 
(possibly through the various campus 
fellowships), boys would have caught you. In 
my school we even have an unrecognized, 
unregistered but well offered course (Moz101. 
moz, being the short form 4 Mozambique hall, 
were fresh female students are accommodated). 
. 
For the guys its a course that shouldn't be 
carried over. Soon, they would persuade you 
to move in with them. Of course, they’d give 
you one thousand reasons to make you 
give in to their 
prodding.. Before you agree to move in and live 
with a boy on campus, consider the reason 
why you are in school in the first place. What 
image would you be creating about yourself? 
Can this boy marry you in case you get pregnant for him as is always the 
case, or will you resort to series of abortions 
like many other girls before you? What advice will you give your 
children in future concerning this kind of 
things? After school, what next? Will the relationship really 
lead you anywhere?. 
. 
This post is finally addressing the 
female folks. I didn’t plan it that way. Maybe it’s 
because they are the worst hit by the grave 
consequences of illicit sexual relationships. 
They are the ones that turn out to be the sore 
losers in the end. They call it school life but 
they don’t realize how idiotic they have been 
till it’s too late. You are not in school to get 
married. Part of the reasons why you are in 
school IS NOT to get the 
husband-and-wife 
experience, to see what it feels like for the boy to provide the money for food and for the girl 
to go to the market for food stuffs and cook. 
That’s pure misplacement of purpose! One guy told me that he was practically learning how tobe a caring and 
romantic husband. Such shameless! Then you hear the girl say, “We are not doing anything, we are 
just roommates”. Yet she 
commits countless 
abortions before graduation..Yes, your 
admission has given you 
unlimited freedom. 
Yes, your parents are not there to tell you what to do or what not to do. 
There is even no blood relation around, so there's 
no fear of someone reporting you. But 
what about giving 
your womanhood respect and protecting your 
dignity? 
. 
What about living in such a way as to have a 
positive story to tell the next generation 
(including your children) without your 
conscience pricking you? 
What Goes Around Will Definately Come Around.... 
Y not exercise a moment of thorough thinking.... 
. 
Thanks
