WATCH THE VIDEO HERE The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said no candidate would sit for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) outside their state of registration. Public Communication Advisor, JAMB, Dr Fabian Benjamin, stated this in a telephone interview with NAN on Tuesday in Abuja. Benjamin explained that some candidates, who sat for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) outside their state of registration and residence, were sent to the available mock centres closer to their areas. He said this was because not all the Computer Based Test (CBT) centres were available to conduct the mock examination, adding that however, all registered centres would be available for the main exercise. “If centres for mock in Abuja are filled up and there were available centres in Nassarawa State, candidates will be sent there. According to him, this is not likely to happen in the main examination because there will be more centres conducting the main examination and so, no candidate will be sent outside their state of residence. He also explained that early registration of the UTME also determined how close a candidates’ centre would be to him or her, adding that once a closer centre was already filled up, the candidate may be assigned any available centre within the state.
