Initiating the process with a JAMB profile code stands as the crucial first step for those seeking to register for the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examination.
As per UTME officials, prospective candidates must secure a JAMB profile code prior to their registration. It's imperative to adhere to the following guidelines:
VITAL NOTE FOR JAMB PROFILE CODE GENERATION:
- Ensure your Simcard has a balance of at least N50 (Fifty Naira) before requesting your JAMB profile code.
- The phone number used for JAMB profile creation must be fresh, with no prior history of being associated with JAMB profile creation. (Especially pertinent for candidates who have previously registered with JAMB).
- The same caution applies to the email address you provide; it should not have been previously used to create a JAMB profile. This measure is in place to maintain the integrity of your profile.
You're strongly advised to create your UTME profile using a valid and unique GSM Number that hasn't been used for JAMB profile creation before. This ensures that all crucial information will be delivered to the provided GSM Number during your JAMB profile setup.
GUIDE TO OBTAINING YOUR JAMB PROFILE CODE:
1: For a new profile, send your names (Surname, First Name, Middle Name) in this order, with spaces in between, as an SMS to 55019. For example: "Jide Chinedu Ahmadu."
2: To update an existing profile without a UTME/DE PIN, send your corrected names (Surname, First Name, Middle Name) in the specified order, separated by spaces, to 55019. For example: "Correct Jide Chinedu Ahmadu." Note: Only correct names if you haven't used the confirmation code to purchase a UTME/DE PIN.
3: If you've misplaced your JAMB confirmation code, request it again by sending "Resend" as an SMS to 55019.
4: If you've purchased a UTME PIN and need it resent, send "UTMEPIN" as an SMS from your unique GSM number to 55019. For example: "utmepin."
5: If you've bought a Direct Entry PIN and require a resend, simply send "DEPIN" as an SMS from your phone number to 55019. For example: "depin."
6: For a comprehensive guide on using the JAMB short code service (55019), send "HELP" as an SMS to 55019.
7: To reset your Profile Password, send "PASSWORD email" as an SMS to 55019. For example: "Password jide.chinedu.ahmadu@gmail.com."
Remember to take your confirmation code to any authorized point of sale (Banks, Online Payments, Mobile money operators, JAMB accredited registration centers, etc.) for form purchase.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1: MiddleName is optional.
2: Do NOT hand over your phone to anyone to create your profile or receive your confirmation code. Follow the guide above to do it yourself.
