The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board said it would commence
the sale of 2015 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination
application forms from September 15, 2014 to January 15, 2015.
The board stated that following its resolution to implement
full-blown, Computer-Based Test in the 2015 UTME, a number of reforms
aimed at repositioning the examination sector had been put in place to
ensure a hitch-free exercise.
A statement by the JAMB Registrar, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, on Tuesday in
Abuja, explained that the board had fine-tuned arrangements with CBT
centres to register prospective UTME candidates.
This, it noted, became necessary to make the registration exercise
error and stress-free for candidates.
The board said that it had discovered that most of the cases of
impersonation and other malpractices were initiated from the
registration process at cybercafes, hence the need to regulate the
registration process to ensure the system was malpractice-free.
It said, "By this arrangement, candidates are to obtain their
application document from the designated banks and proceed to any of
our CBT centres and register for the examination at a regulated fee.
"There are about 300 centres all over the country and the centre
members of staff have been trained for this purpose."
