Ways To Know If You Have Been Given Admission

Every year, many students lose their admission opportunities simply because they are unaware that their school of choice has already offered them admission. To avoid this costly mistake, it is important for candidates to understand the official ways to check and confirm their admission status. In this post, we will explain the different reliable methods schools and JAMB use to notify candidates, ensuring you never miss your admission offer.

This post will point out and explain different ways candidates can know if they have been offered admission by any school.

Ways Candidates can Check If They have been Offered Admission By Any School

1. SMS notification: Most schools will require that you provide your active Phone number during Post-UTME or admission registration in the school. Many of these schools will notify you once you have been offered admission to the school by sending a text message to the phone number you used when you applied for admission to the school. This is why it is advisable that candidates provide their active phone numbers if required while applying for admission.

2. Email Notification: Just like phone numbers, many schools equally do ask candidates to provide their email addresses while applying for admission. Admission notifications are equally sent to candidates via this medium. The unfortunate thing, however, is that many candidates hardly check their emails. If you are an admission seeker, it is advisable that you check your email address regularly in case your school decides to send admission notifications via this method.

3. JAMB CAPS: JAMB Central Admission Processing System (CAPS) makes it possible for prospective candidates seeking admission into various tertiary institutions to monitor their admission status and easily know when they have been offered admission by any institution.

4. School Portal:  Almost all the tertiary institutions in Nigeria now have their own websites. Most of these schools do announce the release of the admission list and publish the names of admitted students on their websites. Candidates seeking admission are supposed to know the official website of their school of choice and closely monitor it to know when such announcements concerning admission have been made.

5. JAMB Matriculation List: This was recently introduced by JAMB. Candidates can confirm if they have been offered admission and if their admission is recognized by JAMB via the JAMB Matriculation List portal.
