When you are ready to sign up for the UTME, you must use an official JAMB CBT centre. These are the only places authorised to handle your fingerprinting, final registration, and other important tasks. Using an approved centre is the best way to keep your personal data safe and prevent common registration mistakes or scams.
Each accredited centre is fully equipped with the right technology for your biometric verification and the actual exam. Before you head out to any of these locations, make sure you have created your profile on the JAMB portal first.
Update April 13, 2026: After the JAMB mock exams on 27 March, board spokesperson Fabian Benjamin confirmed that several centres have been delisted. This decision came after internal reviews flagged technical failures that occurred during the test. With two centres in Edo State being affected:
Daniet Global Resources, No 124 Akpapava Road, Opposite Zenith Bank, Ikpoba Slope, Oredo, Benin City, Edo State
Moses and Grace College of Health Sciences and Technology CBT Centre, 3rd Richard Street, Obe Community, After Rock of Ages Church, Off Benin Sapele Road, Benin City

What to Do After Choosing Your JAMB CBT Centre
Confirm the Location: Take a trip to the centre a few days before your appointment to familiarise yourself with the route and estimate travel time.
Verify Accreditation: Ensure the centre name matches the official JAMB list perfectly to avoid falling for "miracle centres" or unapproved hubs.
Prepare Your Documents: Gather your National Identification Number (NIN), profile code, and the exact registration fee to avoid delays once you arrive.
Check Your Biometrics: During registration, ensure the official captures your fingerprints correctly and double-check that your name and date of birth are entered without errors.
Collect Your Printout: Do not leave the centre without your registration slip, as this is your only proof of successful enrollment and contains your examination details.
