Why You Should Change Course or Institution

The following are valid reasons you may consider buying a Jamb change of course or institution form this year.

1. Not Scoring Up To Or More Than Jamb Cut Off Mark

Every Jamb candidate usually have the dream of scoring above 300. However, this doesn’t work for everybody in reality. If you scored less than the general cut off mark for your school of choice, you will not be admitted.

On the other hand, If you score around the Jamb cut off mark, you may also not get admitted as a result of competition. This is a good reason to change your course or school of choice.

2. Loss Of Interest In The Study Course Or Institution

Some candidates say, “I don’t want to study in the University I chose earlier, in fact, I have lost interest in the choice course I put in during Jamb registration.”

This could be that you never liked the school or your parents asked you to change the course. In addition, it could just be that you have a Jamb score that can take you to a better school.

3. Mistakes In Jamb Form And Subject Combinations

So many persons reported to me that the wrong institution was chosen for them during registration.

For others, they had issues in their Jamb subject combinations and could not fix it when Jamb gave room for correction of details.

If this is your situation you may want to change to your desired institution. Change of course and institution form gives you room to do this.
