The board had earlier announced that the UTME will hold from April 16 to April 25.

It also urged candidates and the public to ignore reports claiming the exam has been postponed, describing the notice as false.

“Our attention has been drawn to a malicious press release alleging that the 2026 UTME has been postponed. We wish to state clearly that the notice is fake and did not emanate from the board. Candidates and the general public are advised to disregard it. All arrangements for the 2026 UTME remain on course as scheduled,” JAMB stated.

Meanwhile, JAMB said the 2025 policy meeting approved minimum admission scores of 150 for universities, 140 for colleges of nursing, and 100 for polytechnics, monotechnics, colleges of education, colleges of agriculture, and innovation enterprise institutions.

The board added that the minimum age for admission into tertiary institutions for the 2025/2026 academic session remains 16 years.
