JAMB Regularization

JAMB regularization is a process for students or graduates without a JAMB registration number or admission letter.
After admission, every student in the tertiary institution is supposed to accept admission on the JAMB CAPS.
But there are categories of students like ND & HND students, pre-degree students and UTME students that do not get their JAMB admission letter after admission.
This set of students must apply for the JAMB regularization to be eligible for the NYSC registration and mobilization exercise.
Duration for JAMB Regularization

The duration of JAMB regularization approval by the Joint Admission Matriculation Board is twenty-four (24) hours after consent from your school.
Delay with your JAMB regularization happens when your institution does not forward your indemnity form to the JAMB board on time. It could also be due to late approval by JAMB.
JAMB regularization does not expire.

Thanks sir..
I’m sorry to hear about the issue you’re facing with your JAMB regularization and Senate list. It seems that there might be some confusion or missing information in the process.
Here are some steps you can take to address the situation:
1. Follow the instructions given by the JAMB office: If they have asked you to send a message to 55019 using your NIN (National Identification Number), make sure to do so as directed. This will help them gather the necessary information and determine the next steps.
2. Contact your school’s admission or registration department: Reach out to the admission or registration department at your school and explain the situation to them. Provide them with any information or documents you have regarding your JAMB regularization and Senate list submission. They should be able to assist you further and provide guidance on how to resolve the issue.
3. Visit the JAMB office in person: If the previous steps do not yield a satisfactory resolution, you may consider visiting the JAMB office in person. Speak with an official and explain your situation. They should be able to review your case, provide clarification, and guide you on the necessary steps to take.
4. Be patient and persistent: Resolving administrative issues like this can sometimes take time. It’s important to be patient and follow up regularly with both your school and the JAMB office. Stay in touch with the respective authorities and keep track of any updates or instructions they provide.
Remember, the JAMB office and your school are the best sources of information and guidance in this situation. They will have the necessary knowledge and expertise to help you navigate through the process and address any issues that may arise.
I hope this information helps, and I wish you the best of luck in resolving the matter with your JAMB regularization and Senate list.

Hello Victor,
What response did you get at the JAMB office when you applied for the JAMB regularization?
Good day sir,
I did jamb this year, due to my score, I want to do change of institution and also change my UTME to DE.
The school I obtained my ND, we don’t do jamb to gain admission: so that means to apply for this DE I will have to do jamb regularisation?
Do I need to wait for the change of institution to be out before I apply for the jamb regularisation? Or is it after I have changed to DE that I will now do the regularisation.?
Hello Ayo,
The JAMB change of course is now available.
I advise you begin both process now.
Hello sir

Hello Obianuju
Sorry about the delay.
Has it been up to two weeks since you submitted your application at the JAMB office?

No, Israel
You should do them all at once

Please I went to student affairs to do my manual registration for nysc and i used my jamb admission letter which carry’s my old course and used my statement of result which carries another course and dey accepted it…will I be able to go for nysc
Aideyan,
Did you point the difference at the Student Affairs office?
Goodevening sir,
I did my jamb regularization last year but it was not uploaded by the jamb state office. After waiting I went to enquire at jamb office and I was told that it was not uploaded because I did not accept my jamb admission. After the admission was accepted there I was told to reprint the indemnity form and send it back to my school, which I did. My school said they have sent it to jamb ,but It has not been approved yet and also i checked my indemnity form, it’s still showing the one uploaded last year. What do I do sir?
I advise you to check back with your school admission office on the status of your application.
Please I need a clarification here
I was given admission from both Jamb and school with the same course of study and I have both admission letters.
Do I need to do jamb regularization?
No, Patience
It doesn’t seem like you need to regularize your admission.
Are you encountering any challenges?
Good evening please just a verification, I was illegal admitted so when I did a jamb regularization to confirm my admission I had to create a new profile with my correct date of birth but they used my old jamb number to continue my regularization please I want know if what I’m seeing on my jamb dashboard profile is actually the correct information they have sent to NYSc for mobilization or the illegal details since it’s just one jamb number I didn’t get a new one ??
Providing a definitive answer without more specific information about your situation is complex. However, ensuring that your JAMB profile and all other documentation accurately reflect your correct personal information, including your name, date of birth, and further relevant details, is essential.
Suppose you have created a new JAMB profile with your correct information and completed the regularization process. In that case, this information will likely be used for NYSC mobilization purposes.
However, it may be a good idea to contact JAMB directly or visit a JAMB office to confirm that your information is correct and up-to-date. They will be able to provide more specific information about your situation and help you ensure that all your documentation is accurate and complete.
Hello. Thanks for the article,it was really helpful. I tried following procedures though and I was stucked at the point of clicking regularization.
The page was blank.
Is it that I can’t do it on my own or what? Someone said, I have to go to Jmab office to get it done.
Hello Bayo,
It could be a network problem.
If otherwise, I recommend you visit the JAMB office for further assistance.
I have printed the admission letter, but the jamb regularization status is still showing red, and my name is still not on the Jamb matriculation list….I have printed both the admission letter and result slip..
Hello Prince,
Has it been more than two (2) weeks since you could print your JAMB admission process?
Sometimes, the changes can take a few weeks to update on the JAMB portal.
But if the problem of you not seeing your name not available on the JAMB admission list persists,n you may have to visit the JAMB office for further assistance.
I will say you give it some weeks.

Hello,
I have been able to create the profile, now I proceeded to the next columnwhic is “regularize admission” but it’s blank, i guess I’ll use a laptop. My question is that, since I have been given a code to create the profile, do I need another code to proceed to “regularize admission” I mean the code sent to 55019, pls need to know because I haven’t received any message from 55019
How did you receive the code to create your JAMB profile?
I checked my admission status on jamb and it shows that I have been admitted. But when I tried accessing my caps the school and course space is left blank. The place where u can accept or reject admission is also blank .wat is the cause
Hello Pearl
Try the processing using a laptop.
Let me know if the problem persists.
Congratulations on your admission.
Am 30 but when I graduated was the age of 26. Please am asking is it year of graduation that count or age of wen u wen to serve
The year your school senate approved your result that is used for the age calculation.
Can student who register through DE 2016 and his date of birth is 12/12/1991exist allow to change his date of birth or he can just go for regularization
Hello Umar,
If your date of birth is wrong, you should apply for a change. And after this, you can do the regularization.
