Printing your JAMB examination slip is an important step in preparing for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
If you intend to take JAMB but are unsure how to print your examination slip or require clear instructions, we will walk you through the simple steps to print it quickly and correctly, ensuring you do not miss out.
How to Print Your Jamb Examination Slip 2026
To successfully print your 2026 JAMB Examination Slip, follow these steps:
Access the official JAMB portal: To get to the JAMB e-facility portal, go to https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/ in a safe web browser on your computer or smartphone. To avoid phishing scams, never click on unofficial links on social media or in emails.
Log in with Your Credentials: On the e-facility homepage, locate the login fields. Enter the email address or phone number you used during JAMB registration, along with your password. Then, click on the login button.
Navigate to the Print Examination Slip Service: After successfully logging into your personal dashboard, locate the menu or list of services. Click on the "Print Examination Slip" or "2026 UTME Examination Slip."
Review Your Examination Details: Your slip will appear on the screen. Examine all the information displayed, including your name, subject combination, exam date, time, and centre address.
To print or save the slip, use your browser's print command (Ctrl+P) or the page's print button. If you have a printer connected, make at least two clear copies on A4 paper.
If immediate printing access is unavailable, please save the slip as a PDF to your device and email a copy to yourself for safekeeping. You can then print it out at a cyber cafe.
What to Do After You Print Your Slip
Now that you've printed out your JAMB slip again, here are some important things you need to do to get ready for the test:
Check your exam date, time, and location very carefully.
If you don't know where the centre is, you can go there before the day of the test. This will help you understand the route better and keep you from being surprised at the last minute.
Try to get there well before your scheduled time on the day of the test.
Don't forget to bring your printed slip and a valid form of ID, like your national ID or JAMB registration printout. You will need these to get into the exam room.
