All admissions must be concluded by October, JAMB tells varsities

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has directed all public universities to conclude their 2025 admission processes by October 31, 2025.

According to the board’s schedule, private universities must finalise admissions by November 30, 2025, while all tertiary institutions—public or private—are required to complete the process no later than December 31, 2025.

The directive, contained in JAMB’s weekly bulletin released on Monday, was issued in line with the decisions reached at the 2025 Policy Meeting chaired by the Minister of Education.

JAMB explained that the move is aimed at stabilising the academic calendar and ensuring equitable access to admission opportunities across institutions nationwide.

“All tertiary institutions have been instructed to conclude their admissions within the approved timelines.

“Even if an institution is not ready to commence a new academic session, it must conduct its admission and archive it,” the board said.

JAMB further directed institutions conducting post-UTME screenings to complete them promptly, stressing that all admission processes must strictly adhere to the prescribed deadlines.
