The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is set to embark on a phased release of the highly anticipated results of the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). The process will kick off with a press briefing scheduled for Monday in Abuja, as confirmed by a press release circulated to journalists by JAMB’s Head of Public Relations, Fabian Benjamin, on Sunday. This briefing will mark the release of the first batch of results, prioritizing those candidates who took the UTME during the initial days of the examination.
JAMB’s decision to release the UTME results in stages underscores their unwavering commitment to delivering credible and trustworthy outcomes. This meticulous approach allows for a thorough screening process to identify and address any potential irregularities, such as impersonation attempts, inconsistencies in biometric data, or other forms of exam malpractice. By prioritizing a phased release with additional scrutiny, JAMB aims to ensure that all released results are entirely reliable and free from suspicion.
JAMB is committed to transparency throughout the results release process. The press briefing on Monday will likely provide more details on the specific timeframe for releasing the subsequent batches of UTME results. JAMB encourages all UTME candidates to remain informed by following their official communication channels for the latest updates on the full results release schedule. Candidates can expect to receive timely notifications via the channels they used to register for the UTME.
The phased release approach aligns with the expectations of many stakeholders, who prioritize the accuracy and integrity of the UTME results. This measured approach allows JAMB to dedicate the necessary resources to ensure a high degree of scrutiny and minimize the possibility of errors or irregularities. Ultimately, this benefits all stakeholders, including candidates, universities, and the general public, by fostering trust and confidence in the UTME process.
While the initial announcement focuses on the first batch of results, the press briefing may also touch upon the timeline for releasing the remaining UTME results. JAMB is expected to provide a clear roadmap for when candidates can expect to receive their scores. Additionally, the briefing might address other pertinent matters related to the UTME, such as the admissions process for tertiary institutions.
