STEP BY STEP PROCEDURE FOR THE PURCHASE OF 2025 DE REGISTRATION DOCUMENTS
A. CREATION OF PROFILE
1. Every candidate would require the use of a unique phone (mobile) number (SIM) for the process of registration. The unique phone number can be used by one candidate only. (Note: This number (SIM) remains your unique identification for all your transactions with the Board for present and future transactions/applications).
2. Candidate will send his/her National Identification Number (NIN) by text (SMS) to either 55019 or 66019 from his/her personal GSM number. For instance, write the word "NIN" then space and add your 11-digit NIN Number and send to 55019 or 66019 in this format (NIN 00123456789). There should be a space between the word "NIN" and your 11-digit NIN (Note that the number must not have been used by another person to register for DE in the past). Do not use Post-paid or special bundle package lines. They do not work unless specially loaded with credit.
3. A Profile Code of 10 characters will be received by the candidate on the same telephone (SIM) number. Returning Candidates for previous years will still receive same profile code on the same number previously used. Note that the profile remains the same for the candidate for present and future application with the Board.
4. The phone (mobile) number used for the text message is automatically tied to the Candidate's name and will be used in all communication relating to each candidate's 2025 and future Application, Examination and Admission.
CANDIDATES SHOULD NOTE AND ALWAYS REMEMBER THE SIM-NUMBER USED. IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE FOR SUBSEQUENT COMMUNICATION WITH THE BOARD
BY OBTAINING THE APPLICATION DOCUMENTS, A CANDIDATE HAS ACCEPTED TO RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES FROM JAMB (55019 or 66019) EVEN WHEN THE "DO NOT DISTURB" (DND) 1S ACTIVATED
Candidates who procure SIMs only for registration with JAMB (and not in constant use) are advised to take advantage of and use the KEEP MY NUMBER (KMN) facility offered by their respective Telecos. this feature keeps the SIM alive even if unused for the candidate by ensuring that the SIN is not r-issued to another customer. KMN will keep the SIM of for the candidate for an initial period of 3 years which is also renewable afterwards. JAMB has no participation in this transaction and it is optional as long as the candidate is certain of keeping the registered number alive for the period of transaction with the board up to graduation and service year. Any willing candidate is to so specify to his Teleco when buying the SIM.
JAMB does not entertain any request for change of SIM number after profile creation
5. Candidate will present the profile code at the point of procurement of application document (from Banks, MMOs, MFBs, Switches, USSD Partners). An e-PIN is then sent as text message to the candidate's phone.
6. Candidate will present the Profile code and e-PIN at any JAMB accredited CBT Centre for registration.
7. The application cannot be completed until the candidate's biometrics (all ten fingers) are captured and photograph taken physically (No submission of passport photograph). Successful capture of biometrics and photograph will authorise a candidate to print his/her e-registration slip (Candidate must use at least two fingers: any of the two can be used to print his/her registration slip. The fingerprint verification shall be required for any further transaction with JAMB on the candidate's profile.
