THIS is to inform all the candidates who participated in the 2021 JAMB UTME that the change of JAMB course and/or institution for the 2021/2022 Academic Session has commenced.

Related News:

The change of institution and course are introduced to enable JAMB candidates who already know their scores and have verified the cut-off mark of their choice institutions and to make the necessary changes in their choice of course and institution relative to their UTME scores.

If you scored below 180 in the JAMB 2021 Examination and you choose a competitive Institution like the University of Ilorin, UNILORIN, University of Benin, UNIBEN, then you can now apply for a less competitive one to increase your chances of admission. Or if you chose a popular/competitive course like Surgery and Medicine, Accounting, etc. And you scored 199 and below, then you really need to apply for a change of course and/or institution.

  13. WHY THE CONFUSION? I READ FROM ANOTHER SITE THAT JAMB CHANGE OF COURSE/INSTITUTION COMES AFTER JAMB RESULTS HAVE BEEN RELEASED THEN YOU WILL KNOW IF YOU ARE TO CHANGE YOUR COURSE/INSTITUTION OR NOT. PLEASE, LET THE RIGHT INFORMATION BE PASSED. JAMBITES ARE ALWAYS EAGER TO GET THE RIGHT INFORMATION. THANKS

    1. Hello,
      The JAMB Change of course/institution form is not on sale yet. Yes, it will be out when the results has been released. Sometimes, it is even advise to wait for JAMB to release the cutoff mark for each school so you don’t make any mistake. But now, it takes JAMB forever to release cutoff marks, so JAMBites can make use of the last year’s cutoff to know if they will be eligible or not.

    1. The form is not on sale yet. The steps on how to do it will be made available. Please read the instruction before applying for change of course/institution. You can only do it ONCE.

    1. Hello Favour, the change of JAMB form is not on sale yet. You can do that at any accredited JAMB centre in ABA.

  14. When will jamb change of course be on sale
    Pls someone should inform me when its on sale
    Here is my whatsapp number 090381448xx

    1. Yes. You can apply for change of course or change of institution. And you can also apply for both.
      But you can do it JUST ONCE.

      1. Inform me via my email when the form is ready
        And again I got 206 n I want to study Radiography in unizik, any hope?

        1. You are eligible. The cutoff mark for Radiography last session was 200 and above.
          We have your email already.

          Cheers.

    1. Yes you. You will need to purchase the scratch card and fill out the details you want to change.
      Although, we don’t know how this year’s is going to be like.

  15. Please sir can I also change my profile information when changing institution?
    And please inform us when its out.

    1. You can apply for change of course/institution.
      But I guess applying for change of name, date of birth, etc is different from the above.

    1. We will inform you.

      Ps. For all those who want to know when the change of course/institution form is out. Please drop your mobile phone or email and we will notify all of you.

    1. We will have to wait to see if it is possible again. All we know is that when the results are out, you can only do it once.

    1. Yes. When you have obtained the scratch card, you can do it yourself. (unless the procedure is different from last year)

    1. Which of the school? I guess with your score, you can apply for Med/Surg in any of the University in Nigeria.
      The price for change of course/institution form is not out yet.
