Understanding JAMB’s Responses
- Congratulations: If you receive a “CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE BEEN OFFERED PROVISIONAL ADMISSION” message, you can proceed to accept or reject the offer.
- Admission in Progress: This means you have been recommended for admission and only undergoing processing. With admission in progress, consider yourself admitted. Just keep checking back and see the notification change to congratulations; you have been admitted.
- Not Admitted: This status indicates that you have not been considered for admission yet. Regular checks are recommended.
Next Step for Candidates Admitted on the JAMB Portal
Successfully admitted candidates are advised to:

Check if you have been recommended for transfer to another program.
Based on the JAMB CAPS implementation policy, institutions have the right to consider some candidates for transfer from the choice programme to another programme because of UTME and O’level combinations.
Candidates are expected to monitor their admission by following the instructions a-c above, then click the ‘Transfer Approval’ link to know if they are recommended for transfer to another program. You are required to either accept or reject this transfer consideration. If you accept, your first-choice institution will be able to admit you to the new program. If you reject, you will remain in your preferred Course / Program. Therefore, the program transfer will not be effected.
You applied for the JAMB UTME with awaiting results.
Candidates who used ‘awaiting result’ during their registration are to upload their O’Level result on the JAMB portal so that their institution of choice will process their admission. To avoid disqualification, direct-entry candidates, including JUPEB students, should also upload their A’level and O’level results. This is to enable the screening officers to determine their qualifications for admission. Recommended: How to Upload O’Level Result on JAMB Portal / Profile.
