The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has said any tertiary institution, which does not submit its matriculation list risks non-approval of admissions for the 2024 and 2025 academic sessions.
A few years ago, the Federal Ministry of Education mandated all tertiary institutions to submit these lists to JAMB as part of efforts to curb the growing problem of illegal admissions.
Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, the Registrar of JAMB, in a bulletin of the board, directed that, “Institutions, which fail to submit their matriculation list for the 2022 and 2023 admissions, should not have their admissions approved for the 2024 and 2025 admission exercises.”
However, he noted that because some institutions were still conducting the process for 2024 admissions a concession was being a concession was being granted but insisted on compliance at the end of the exercise.
According to Oloyede: “As a prelude to what lies in store for defaulting institutions, the Registrar disclosed that such institutions would be invited for a meeting, while affiliate institutions, are to be invited along with their parent institutions where appropriate penalties would be spelt out.
“The Registrar also directed that an advert be placed in major dailies to inform all institutions that the admission for erring institutions, would not be approved.
“To this end, the Admission Desk Officers were advised to ensure that those institutions comply with the directive on submission of matriculation list.”
