According to JAMB, candidates with awaiting results are free to register for UTME. However, they should ensure that there result is ready before the Admission exercise of the school they applied to study commences.
During JAMB registration, candidates with results will be allowed to upload their results while candidates with awaiting result will just leave the space empty. This will not in any way disqualify candidates with awaiting results. But they should make sure the result is available before admission into their respective institutions of choice commences.
The board went further to state categorical that it will give equal chances to all candidates during the UTME registration both those with results and those with awaiting results as the board will not deny anyone the right to quality education.
So if you are a JAMB prospective Candidate hoping to register for UTME using awaiting result, please disregard any information saying that JAMB has scraped awaiting results registration. Go ahead with your registration when the registration finally commences.
