Everything About Jamb Regularization 2025

Jamb Regularization simply means the reconciliation of your OND/ND/NCE/HND admission between your institution and JAMB. JAMB regularisation is also known as LATE APPLICATION on JAMB website.

When you got admitted into your previous school, Polytechnic, College of Education, etc. It was possible that you didn’t write Jamb or receive an admission letter from Jamb. This implies that you don’t have Jamb registration number and your school didn’t notify Jamb of your admission.

Should I Do Jamb Regularization?

This is not funny, because you might not have been aware if not that you want to obtain direct entry form, or you want to go to NYSC. Follow the steps below to know whether you are to do Jamb regularization or not:

1. Go to www.jamb.org.ng
2. Scroll to the year you wrote your jamb (e.g 2019)
3. Click on Check Admission Status
4. Enter your Jamb number and click enter.

 

You are meant to get a message, showing your details, school, passport and the course you studied in ND/NCE/HND. If you saw your admission details, then you don’t need to regularize. Just go ahead and apply for Direct entry (DE).

But if you got a message like ”˜Sorry no admission is given yet”˜”¦, then you need to regularize before applying for direct entry/NYSC.
