ABUJA, (VOICE OF NAIJA)-The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that examination slip printing is now open for candidates registered for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
JAMB made the announcement on Thursday, urging candidates to visit its website to download their slips in preparation for the examination.
“Examination Slip Printing is now available. The slip contains details of the venue, date and time of your examination and gives you access to the examination hall,” the board said.

The announcement follows JAMB’s dismissal of a viral press release falsely claiming that the examination had been postponed.
The board described the notice as “malicious and fake” and urged candidates to ignore it.
The 2026 UTME is scheduled to hold from Thursday, April 16, to Saturday, April 25, 2026.
The examination comes after a mock test conducted on Saturday, March 28, which experienced technical difficulties at some Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres.
Of the 224,597 candidates registered for the mock test, 152,586 sat the examination across 989 CBT centres nationwide, with over 20 centres delisted due to technical inadequacies, JAMB said.
The board also warned candidates against fraudsters on WhatsApp who claim to facilitate score inflation, describing such claims as “false and criminal” and cautioning that any candidate found involved could face cancellation of registration or withholding of results.
