The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has debunked claims that it has increased the registration fees for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), describing the report as false, misleading, and entirely unfounded.
In a statement by JAMB’s spokesperson, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the Board clarified that the approved UTME registration fees remain ₦5,700 for Direct Entry, ₦7,200 for UTME only, and ₦8,700 for UTME with Mock Examination.
The statement emphasized that these fees have remained unchanged since 2019.
JAMB urges the public to disregard the publication and rely solely on official information released through its verified platforms and advertisements.
The Board reaffirms its commitment to transparency, accountability, and the protection of candidates’ interests at all times.
