please I did my change of course on 6th September, so last week when I went for post utme screening registration to the school I newly applied to, it said that I was not eligible to register and today I went again it still wrote the same thing that my name did not appear in their list. not only me but also some other people who recently changed there’s but my problem is that is this week that the skuls I applied for are ending their registration .what should I do??? please
The only thing you can do is wait until JAMB sends your details to the school you changed to. If JAMB is unable to do that before the deadline for your school’s screening registration, the school will either extend the deadline or conduct a second screening for you guys. So there is nothing to worry about.
