2023: JAMB releases UTME results, explains how to check results

ByRasak Ayanlakin

On Tuesday, May 2nd, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) made accessible the results of this year’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

The results of the external examination conducted last Monday and Tuesday were released on Tuesday, May 2nd.

This was announced in a statement released by the Head, Public Affairs and Protocol, of the examination board, Fabian Benjamin

The examination board disclosed that it registered 1, 595, 779 candidates for the examination.

It added that the examinations were held in 708 CBT centres across 105 towns in Nigeria.

The results of the candidates who were rescheduled to re-sit for the examination on Saturday April 6 are not parts of the released results.

Also the released results do not include those of the absentees, those whom the board was still investigating their results and those of the visually impaired participants which the board are still processing.

The examination board implored those who sat for the examination should use the numbers they used to register for the examination to send UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019.

The Board said doing the above would make the results appear as a text message.

It said: “To check the results, all a candidate needs to do is to simply send UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone number that he/she had used for registration and the result would be returned as a text message.

“Also to be noted is the fact that the released results, when checked by candidates, would return the status of the candidates.

“For instance, with respect to absent or rescheduled candidates, or those under investigation, the response would be: YOU WERE ABSENT, RESCHEDULED OR UNDER INVESTIGATION. Therefore, only candidates who are not under any of these categories would have a returned result.”
