JAMB CAPS 2025 is activated: Check and Monitor your Admission Status

JAMB has officially activated the Central Admission Processing System (CAPS) portal for the 2025/2026 admission exercise. Through the JAMB CAPS platform, candidates can now monitor their admission status in real-time, confirm admission offers from universities and other institutions, and stay updated on their next steps in the admission process. Knowing how to properly check and track your JAMB CAPS admission status is one of the most important steps in securing admission into your preferred institution.

If you have been offered admission on Jamb caps, your admission status will show; “ADMITTED” the name of the school and course you have been admitted to study will also be displayed. Once a candidate has been offered admission, such a candidate is required to do either of two things; to accept the admission or to reject it.

Once you accept admission on Jamb caps, your admission quest is over as you will no longer be available for other schools’ admission consideration. On the other hand, if you reject the admission, you become available to other schools that have free admission slots for admission consideration.

It is important to note also that candidates who have been offered admission on JAMB CAPS are to equally print their admission letter after accepting the admission, as they will likely need this during clearance and registration in the school that they have been admitted to.

We, therefore, advise candidates to closely monitor their admission status on JAMB CAPS so as to do the needful as soon as possible. Some schools may not even publish the list of admitted candidates on their own portal or notice board. So for candidates that applied for admission in such schools, the only way to know when they have been offered admission is to check their admission status on JAMB CAPS.
