The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has continued the phased release of results for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), with multiple batches now available to candidates.
After initially releasing results for candidates who sat the exam on Thursday, April 16, the board has since published additional batches covering Friday, April 17, and Saturday, April 18.
In total, over 1.8 million results have been released so far, with more expected as the nationwide examination progresses.
JAMB spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, confirmed that candidates can check their scores via SMS, while the printing of detailed result slips will be enabled later.
Benjamin, in a statement on X, explained that candidates can currently only view their scores, noting that the printing of result slips would be enabled later.
