JAMB set to release Thursday UTME 2026 results today
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that candidates who sat for the first day of the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) will get their results before midnight on Friday.
In a statement signed by its Public Communication Adviser, Fabian Benjamin, the board said the results of candidates who wrote the exam on Thursday, April 16, are currently being processed and will be made available once the exercise is completed later in the day.
JAMB explained that candidates will be able to check their results as soon as the processing is concluded, assuring that everything is on track for timely release.
“This is to inform all candidates who sat for the 2026 UTME on Thursday, 16th April 2026, that their results will be released today before midnight,” the statement read.
JAMB added that an official announcement would be made and published on its platform as soon as the results are available.
The 2026 UTME commenced nationwide on Thursday, with over 2.2 million candidates expected to sit for the examination across accredited Computer-Based Test centres from April 16 to April 22.
The examination, one of the largest coordinated assessments in the country, is conducted in multiple sessions daily to ease congestion and enhance verification processes across centres nationwide.
Candidates have been advised to monitor the board’s official communication channels for updates on the release of their results.
