Ahead of 2017 UTME, JAMB issues important notice for direct entry candidates

Ahead of the 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation
Examination, the Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board (JAMB) says that direct entry
candidates will be required to sit for a school-based
aptitude test and not UTME.
Head of Information at JAMB, Fabian Benjamin, on
Monday, April 3, said: “Direct Entry candidates will
attempt an aptitude test which is school-based. They are
not sitting for the UTME. The test is from the
universities.
''The new book we introduced will be used by Direct
Entry candidates for the aptitude tests that will be
conducted by the universities. Students with
matriculation numbers of universities are not eligible to
sit for the UTME. If they are not satisfied with their
chosen disciplines, they can ask for transfer.’’
  TEANAIJA recalls that JAMB stated it was not going to
extend the registration period , saying that before
deadline every candidate will REGISTERED The spokesman observed that some applicants were
seeking extension of the UTME registration deadline
due to irregularities in the ongoing registration
process.
According to him, it is wrong for any person to also
think that there is inadequacy in the number of
centres stipulated to register candidates for the UTME
