2025 UTME: Re-upload SSCE results or risk losing admission — JAMB

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has issued a fresh directive to all 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) candidates, instructing them to re-upload their O’level results on its portal.

According to the examination body, this affects candidates who had earlier uploaded their results before the release of the final 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WAEC SSCE) results.

JAMB confirmed that it has cleared all previously uploaded results from its system to avoid discrepancies and ensure only the official WAEC records are used for admission processes.

In its weekly news bulletin released on Monday, JAMB explained that several candidates who wrote the UTME with “awaiting results” had prematurely uploaded incomplete WAEC records before the official release.

“To address the issue, JAMB has mandated a fresh upload for every candidate, irrespective of whether the new results differ from those uploaded earlier,” the statement read.

The Board therefore urged all UTME candidates to urgently re-upload their 2025 SSCE results through accredited centres to remain eligible for admission consideration into tertiary institutions.

This directive is expected to affect thousands of admission seekers across the country, making compliance a critical step in the ongoing admission exercise.
