JAMB result validity period to be increased from 1-year
The Senate has passed a resolution to reduce the registration fee of Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) from N5, 650 to N2, 500.
This resolution was taken following the adoption of the report of the Senate Committee on Tertiary Institutions and TETFund, on the inquiry into the new admission policy of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) at the resumed plenary session on Wednesday.
The committee also recommended that the validity period of the UTME should be extended to three academic years.
The Senate also adopted the recommendation of the Committee chaired by Senator Binta Masi Garba (APC, Adamawa North) that the change of institution, course form and other incidental activities around the exam should be free.
