The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) will provide free application documents to persons with disabilities (PWDs) registering for the 2026/2027 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). The initiative, announced in Abuja, aims to ensure equal educational opportunities.
JAMB Registrar Prof. Is-haq Oloyede stated that candidates with disabilities, including those with Down Syndrome, Autism, Dyslexia, and ADHD, who have five O’Level credits at not more than two sittings, are eligible. He added that audiobooks in formats like MP3 and WMA will be provided for visually impaired candidates.
The board’s Equal Opportunity Group will process the free documents, continuing a policy from previous years. Registration for the UTME began on January 26 and ends February 28.
JAMB also disclosed it has already generated over N2.2 billion from e-Pin sales for the upcoming exam.
