UTME results only available online, not in paper format – JAMB
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has issued a caution to the public regarding printed UTME result slips. The board emphasised that currently, the results are not accessible in any paper format.
According to Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the spokesperson for JAMB, it is important for Nigerians to be cautious of candidates showcasing printed result slips as the official results are not in paper form. Benjamin highlighted that there have been instances of individuals sharing printed result slips on social media.
Unlike the previous year, Dr. Benjamin clarified that as of now, UTME results are exclusively available online and cannot be obtained through printed copies or the JAMB website.

He said,“The board, once again, wishes to state clearly that the only way to check the 2024 UTME result is to send UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019, using the same phone used by the candidate in registering for the UTME. Ensure that the SIM is not on any bundle.
“This is different from what obtained last year, hence, the results, at the moment, are not and cannot be found on the board’s website.
“Candidates are urged to follow the method specified above to obtain their results. They need not visit any cybercafe or patronise any third-party entity to check their result.
“The public is also advised to be wary of any candidate parading printed result slip as currently, the result is not on any paper format as being circulated on social media by some individuals.
“A reasonable number of candidates have checked their results as seen on our monitoring dashboard but for the few still struggling, please follow the right channel.”
JAMB on Monday announced the release of the 2024 UTME results.
The Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, said the results of 64,624 out of the 1,904,189, who sat the examination, were withheld by the board and would be subjected to investigation.
