FAQs

When will JAMB release the admission list for 2025/2026?

JAMB will release the admission list for 2025/2026 after the institutions have completed their post-UTME screening and sent in their admission lists to JAMB. There is no fixed date for this, but it usually happens between October and December.

How can I check my admission status without a password?

You cannot check your admission status without a password. You need to have your JAMB profile password to access the JAMB e-facility portal and the CAPS portal. If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it by clicking on the “Forgot Password” link on the login page.

What does it mean if my admission status says “Not Admitted”?

It means that you have not been offered admission by any institution. This could be because you did not meet the cut-off mark, or because the admission quota for your course or institution has been filled. You can still check back later to see if there is any change in your admission status.

What does it mean if my admission status says “Admission in Progress”?

It means that your admission application is still being processed by JAMB or the institution. It does not mean that you have been offered admission or not. You have to wait until your admission status changes to either “Admitted” or “Not Admitted”.
