The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board(JAMB) has informed prospective candidates that they can now generate their profile codes and save such for use when registration begins for 2024 UTME.

This information was contained in a statement made available on JAMBulletin as part of the preparation for the commencement of the 2024 UTME registration scheduled to start in the next two weeks.

The Board also urged the candidates to get their National Identification Number (NIN), a prerequisite for UTME/DE registration.

According to the statement, to generate their profile codes, candidates are expected to send: NIN (one space) and then their NIN number (eleven digits number) by text (SMS) to either 55019 or 66019 from their personal GSM number. For example, the SMS should look like this; “NIN 12345678901” (without the quotation marks); send it to 55019 or 66019. Remember, “12345678901” should be your own NIN.

The candidates will receive a profile code of ten characters on the same telephone number. Candidates are advised to note that the phone number used to send the text message to either of the two quick codes is automatically tied to their respective names and will be used by the Board in all communications relating to application, examination and admission.
