The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the results of the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted between Tuesday, April 25, and Monday, May 1, 2023.
This was made known via a statement issued on Tuesday, May 2, by the JAMB spokesperson, Dr Fabian Benjamin.
Benjamin noted that the released 2023 UTME results excluded those of candidates who were rescheduled to take their examination on Saturday, April 6, 2023; those absent; those under investigation, and those of visually impaired candidates, which he said are undergoing processing.
He stated: “A total of 1, 595, 779 candidates had registered to take the examination in 708 CBT centres in 105 examination towns in the country. It is, however, to be noted that the released results excluded those of candidates (i) who were rescheduled to take their examination on Saturday, 6th April, 2023 (ii) those absent (ii) those under investigation, as well as (iii) those of visually impaired candidates, which are undergoing processing.

“To check the results, all a candidate needs to do is to simply send UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone number that he/she had used for registration and the result would be returned as a text message.
“Also to be noted is the fact that the released results, when checked by candidates, would return the status of the candidates.
“For instance, with respect to absent or rescheduled candidates, or those under investigation, the response would be: YOU WERE ABSENT, RESCHEDULED OR UNDER INVESTIGATION. Therefore, only candidates who are not under any of these categories would have a returned result,” the JAMB spokesman revealed.
JAMB had, on Monday, announced that candidates who missed their examination would be rescheduled to take the exercise on Saturday, May 6, 2023.
The examination body listed the candidates to include those who were verified at their centres but could not sit the examination, those who could not be biometrically verified, and those with mismatched data.
