The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that it would begin registration for the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) from January 14 to February 14, 2023, while the 2023 UTME is scheduled to commence on April 29 and is expected to end on May 12, 2023. This was made known on Tuesday in a statement issued by JAMB’s Head of Media and Information, Mr. Fabian Benjamin, which stated that the dates were decided during the Board’s management meeting on Tuesday.


According to the statement, registration for Direct Entry (DE) would be from February 20 to April 20, 2023, while March 16, 2023, was fixed as the date for optional mock UTME.

The statement also added, “Candidates are to note that they would be required to pay the sum of N1,000 service charge for CBT centres for the conduct of mock examination at the point of registration, so as to prevent a situation where candidates would indicate their interest to sit the mock-UTME leading the various centres to commit human and material resources only for them to stay away on the day of the examination”.
