The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has
commenced change of courses and institutions for 2017/2018 admission
procedures.
The examination board’s Head of Public Relations, Fabian
Benjamin, who made this known in an interview with newsmen in Bwari, FCT, on
Wednesday, said that the process of change of courses and institutions could be
done with the payment of N100 in JAMB Computer Based Tests (CBT) centres, and
N250 at other approved centres.
He, therefore, advised candidates who wished to change their
choice of course or institution to visit accredited JAMB registration centres.
“Change of courses and institutions starts today, you can
change at will but you are only entitled to change twice.
“You are allowed to change courses and institutions not more
than two times, if you change the first time and experience an issue, you are
allowed to change the second time.
“You can change to anywhere and we are urging candidates not
to patronise unapproved centres, because the board will not be held liable in
events whereby a person’s change is not reflected.
“You can go to our website on www.jamb.org.ng and check the list of centres
that have been approved at various states to avoid irregularities.
“We have had situation where candidates will go to Cyber
Cafés and do whatever they like and then say the change did not reflect, the
board will not entertain such complaints.”
He, however, urged candidates that participated in the just
concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to cease the
opportunity to change to the courses or institutions that they desired.
