JAMB Direct Entry is designed for candidates who have already obtained a diploma, NCE, or its equivalent and wish to gain admission into a Nigerian university for a degree program without going through the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). The Direct Entry program is an alternative route to gain admission into a university and proceed directly to the second year of study, depending on the course and the institution
Direct entry registration has come to an end already. The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has set the Direct Entry registration closing date for the 2024/2025 academic session as June 17. Designed for diploma, NCE, or equivalent holders, the Direct Entry program allows candidates to bypass the UTME and gain admission into a Nigerian university’s second year. Candidates must follow the application process to ensure a smooth registration and stay updated on the latest information from JAMB and their chosen institution.
