The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has enabled the portal for candidates eligible for the rescheduled mop-up examination to print their exam slips.
The printing of the mop-up notification slip is compulsory for all mop-up candidates, as it enables them to know the venue, date, session and time of their examination.
Candidates Eligible for 2023 UTME Mop-up Examination
1. UNVERIFIED CANDIDATES
These candidates were registered for the 2023 UTME without manifesting any biometric difficulty but could not be verified on the day of the examination.
These candidates had not previously manifested any fingerprint defect or experienced any biometric challenge during the 2023 UTME registration but could not be verified to sit the examination on their scheduled examination date.
These candidates will be taking their examination in Abuja, under close supervision.
2. CANDIDATES AT BEAUTIFUL BEGINNING CBT CENTRE, APO, ABUJA
All candidates, who were scheduled to sit the 2023 UTME at the Beautiful Beginning CBT Centre, Apo, Abuja, but missed the examination for whatever reason has been rescheduled to take the examination on Saturday, 6th May 2023.
The rescheduling of all the candidates, who missed the examination is a result of the mistake made in the address of the centre, which had led to some candidates missing their examination.
3. CANDIDATES RESCHEDULED TO TAKE THE EXAMINATION ON THURSDAY, 27TH APRIL 2023, BUT WHO COULD NOT RECEIVE THE NOTIFICATION
Also, to take the examination along with the unverified candidates on Saturday, 6th May 2023, are those candidates, who had been rescheduled to retake their examination on Thursday, 27th April 2023, but who received their notification late on Thursday night and so missed their examination.
Some of these candidates could not receive the notification because their schools held onto their channels of receiving messages such as their SIM cards, their e-mail addresses, and profile codes.
The Board, in spite of its repeated warnings that its processes are not school-based and would not take responsibility for any of such challenges, is bending over backward to accommodate this set of candidates, who have also been rescheduled to sit the examination on Saturday, 6th May 2023.
4. CANDIDATES IN CENTRES WITH REDUCED CAPACITY
Among the candidates, who have not taken their examination, are those whose centres could not carry their full capacity of 250 and, such, had to be batched with some of these centres taking 150 candidates rather than the 250 allotted to them per session. Some of these remaining candidates in the batched sessions have also been rescheduled and have taken the examination but some are yet to do so.
5. CANDIDATES WITH DATA MISMATCH
For obvious reasons, some CBT centres mismatched the data of some candidates they registered. This was also made possible by the carelessness of these candidates who could not avail themselves of the Board’s provision of dual screens to monitor the course of their registration.
These categories of candidates could not sit the examination as their mismatched personal details could not be rectified early enough to enable them to sit their examination at their scheduled time.
The process of rectifying their data is ongoing and they will also be scheduled to sit the examination on Saturday, 6th May 2023.
Affected candidates are advised to print the slips on time to know the location of their examination centres, and the time of the examination beforehand. This would also guide them in making necessary arrangements ahead of the exercise as the Board frowns at lateness to its examination, as no excuses would be entertained from any candidates especially as it is a mop-up exercise.
Candidates need not visit any CBT centres for the printing of the mop-up notification slip as it can be done at any available internet point, be it private or public.
