The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that it is rescheduling 2025 UTME exams for candidates who faced technical issues during the exam. During the opening days of the UTME (April 24-25, 2025), some test centers experienced glitches that affected candidates’ ability to complete the exam. In response, JAMB launched an immediate review of the problems and *“has begun the rescheduling of candidates with technical hitches”*. The Board appealed to all affected candidates to remain calm, assuring them that they will be given new exam dates. In other words, rescheduling is now ongoing and impacted students will get another chance to sit the UTME under fair conditions.

Rescheduling Is Now Ongoing

JAMB has confirmed that the process of rescheduling affected candidates is underway. According to official reports, the examination board *“has commenced the rescheduling of affected candidates”*. Impacted students are being notified directly – the Board is texting them on their registered mobile numbers and advising them to check the JAMB portal for updates. In practical terms, this means if you experienced a disruption in your exam, you should expect to receive a text message from JAMB with your new exam details, or you will need to log in to the JAMB website to find the information. Candidates are urged to pay close attention to any messages or emails from JAMB in the coming days, as these will contain the updated schedule (date, time and center) for your rescheduled UTME.

How to Check Your New Exam Schedule

If you were affected by the technical issues, here is how to find your rescheduled UTME date, time and venue:

1. Check SMS and Email: First, look out for a message from JAMB. The board is sending SMS text messages to all impacted candidates with their new exam timetable. Also check the email address you used to register, as JAMB may send an official notification there as well. These messages will explicitly state your new exam date, time and center.
2. Visit the JAMB e-Facility Portal: If you do not see an SMS or want to confirm the details, go to the official JAMB website at www.jamb.gov.ng and log in to your profile on the e-Facility portal. Look for the “Print Examination Slip” (e-slip) section. This service is sometimes accessed via the subsite slipsprinting.jamb.gov.ng or through the e-Facility portal on jamb.gov.ng. (Note: you may need to allow pop-ups so the slip can display.)
3. Enter Your Details: In the e-slip printing section, enter your JAMB registration number, email address or phone number – whichever you registered with. The portal will verify your identity.
4. Print or Download the Slip: Click the “Print Examination Slip” button. The screen will generate your personalized UTME slip. This slip will list your new exam date, time and center. Print this slip or save a digital copy; you will need to present it on the exam day. (Here is what the portal looks like: JAMB requires your Reg. No. or Email or GSM to retrieve the slip.)
5. Double-Check the Details: Make sure the information on the slip matches any SMS or email you received. This slip is your official confirmation. If there is any discrepancy or you still have issues, contact JAMB support immediately.

By following these steps via SMS/email and the JAMB portal, you can obtain the updated UTME schedule. The key is to use the official JAMB channels – texts from the JAMB number and the jamb.gov.ng portal – to avoid fake information. As Campus Reports noted, candidates should *“check your new exam schedule via the [JAMB print slip portal]”*.

JAMB’s Commitment to Fairness and Transparency

JAMB has stressed that these rescheduling steps are part of its effort to maintain fairness and integrity in the exam. In recent statements about the UTME, the Board reiterated that it upholds transparency throughout the process. The Registrar has emphasized that only those who truly earn their scores will be admitted, and that every technical issue will be addressed properly. Candidates should be reassured that no one is being unfairly advantaged or disadvantaged by these glitches – the rescheduling ensures everyone still gets to take the exam under proper conditions. In short, JAMB remains committed to a fair and credible UTME for all.
