JAMB releases rescheduled 2025 UTME results

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the results of the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted for candidates affected by technical glitches during the main exercise.

JAMB spokesman Dr Fabian Benjamin announced this via a statement issued on Sunday, May 25, 2025.

Benjamin disclosed that the resit, which was meant to accommodate 336,845 candidates, recorded a high number of absentees as 21,082 candidates failed to show up for the examination.

“Of the 336,845 who were eventually scheduled after isolated good sessions of the affected centres were excluded and their previously unverified candidates were added, 21,082 were absent,” he noted.

Benjamin, however, enjoined candidates who sat for the rescheduled examination to check their results via the official JAMB portal or SMS.

It would be recalled that the results of the 2025 UTME were originally released on May 9.

JAMB Registrar Professor Ishaq Oloyede disclosed that the results of 379,997 candidates across 157 centres in the Lagos and South-East zones were compromised due to a technical glitch.
