Bought UTME PIN Instead of D.E 2026

Updated: December 31, 2025 by FlashIsaac

When it comes to Jamb registration, you have to choose between Jamb UTME and Jamb Direct Entry. Like I always say, Jamb UTME is for “Secondary School Leavers” while direct entry (Jamb D.E) is for those who have gotten additional qualifications like ND, NCE, IJMB, JUPEB Certificate, etc.

There are two complaints from candidates about getting the wrong Jamb form. The first category are those people who mistakenly buy UTME E-PIN Instead of Direct Entry E-PIN. The second set of people are those who register Jamb UTME Instead of Direct Entry and wants to Change it.
