Admission

School Admission vs JAMB Admission

Understand why an institution's admission information and JAMB CAPS can sometimes appear at different stages.

STEP 1

INSTITUTION PROCESSING

An institution may begin processing or communicating admission before the final JAMB approval is reflected on CAPS.

STEP 2

JAMB CAPS

CAPS is the central JAMB admission platform. Candidates should monitor it alongside the institution's official admission channels.

STEP 3

WHEN THEY DO NOT MATCH

Do not panic if both systems do not update at exactly the same time. Verify the information and follow official instructions before making payments or major decisions.
