The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has concluded arrangements to begin the sale of its 2016 application forms.
According to a statement by the board’s Head of Information, Dr Fabian Benjamin in Lagos yesterday, August 24, this is to ensure that candidates prepare early for the 2016 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
It urged candidates to purchase the examination scratch cards from Zenith Bank, Skye Bank and First Bank.
“The registration fee for the (JAMB) UTME is N5,000 and candidates are also to pay N500 to obtain the textbook, ‘The Last Days’ at Forcados High School.
“Candidates will, however, be issued the book at the point of registration after showing evidence of payment,” the statement said.
Also, all prospective candidates are advised to obtain the application forms early to ensure they fill their personal data correctly to avoid any mix-up.
The registration period would be from August 31 to January 15, 2016 and the registration website will close on January 19, 2016.
The examination has been slated for February 29 and March 14, 2016.
