UTME: 2025 Direct Entry registration not closing April 7 – JAMB

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has dismissed the report making the rounds that the 2025 Direct Entry registration would close on Monday, April 7, 2025.

This was contained in a statement by the board’s spokesman, Fabian Benjamin, on Saturday in Abuja.

Benjamin said the registration process, which started on Wednesday, March 12, 2025, would continue until a closing date is announced.

He encouraged candidates, who wish to register to do so at any of the Board’s designated Professional Registration Centres, PRCs, on Monday and continuing until the official closing date is revealed.

According to him, the liberalization of the registration period allows the Board to complete ongoing investigations into candidates who have been arrested or are under scrutiny for attempting to use fraudulent A-Level results for registration.

“We would like to clarify that the 2025 Direct Entry (DE) Registration will not be closing on Monday, April 7, 2025, as being speculated.

“We strongly advise candidates with questionable credentials to refrain from participating in the registration process, as the Board has implemented measures to identify individuals with such credentials, both now and in the future.

“If you have previously used fraudulent results, we urge you to withdraw voluntarily, as the Board is expanding its investigations to include students who have already been admitted,” the statement said.
