JAMB Orders Public Universities to Conclude 2025 Admissions by October - The Alternative News

 


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

According to a bulletin released by the board on Monday, private universities have until November 30, 2025, while all other tertiary institutions, both public and private, must finalise admissions by December 31, 2025.

JAMB explained that the directive is in line with the decisions reached at the 2025 Policy Meeting chaired by the Minister of Education. The board said the move is aimed at stabilising the academic calendar and ensuring fairness in the allocation of admission slots across institutions.

“Following the directives issued at the 2025 Policy Meeting chaired by the Honourable Minister of Education, all tertiary institutions have been instructed to conclude their admission processes by the end of 2025 according to the schedule below: Public universities – 31st October 2025; Private universities – 30th November 2025; Other institutions – 31st December 2025,” the bulletin stated.

The board further urged institutions to complete admissions well ahead of the deadlines, even if they are not immediately ready to commence academic sessions.

“Even where an institution is not yet ready to commence the new academic session, such an institution should conduct its admission and archive it,” JAMB advised.

Additionally, institutions conducting post-UTME screenings were directed to conclude them promptly in order to comply with the admission timelines.
