The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially finalized plans to conduct its supplementary 2026 UTME Mop-Up Examination on Saturday, June 13, 2026. Consequently, this definitive announcement serves as the ultimate corrective phase for select groups of candidates who faced system glitches or biometric verification issues during the primary examination window.
While the main 2026 UTME cycle was successfully run between April 23 and April 29, 2026, the board acknowledged that server bottlenecks at specific computer-based test centers prevented various candidates from completing their sessions. Indeed, according to a statement released by the Head of Public Affairs and Protocol, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, this mop-up exercise stands as the final structural window for the year. Therefore, affected candidates must track their eligibility and print their updated location cards immediately to secure their spots.
Official Timelines & Eligibility Breakdown
Because JAMB maintains tight operational constraints for its screening processes, candidates must pay close attention to the critical calendar markers:
| Core Activity Milestone | Official Scheduled Date |
| Main 2026 UTME Window (Concluded) | Thursday, April 23 – Wednesday, April 29, 2026 |
| Commencement of Mop-Up Slip Printing | Saturday, June 6, 2026 |
| Official Mop-Up Examination Date | Saturday, June 13, 2026 |
Who Is Eligible to Write the Mop-Up Exam?
The board has specifically pre-loaded and white-listed candidates who fit into the following structural categories:
- Technical Glitch Victims: Candidates who duly arrived at their assigned venues but could not sit the exam due to sudden power grid failure, local server crashes, or network infrastructure breakdowns.
- Biometric Verification Outliers: Candidates who physically presented themselves at their test hubs but whose thumbprints or facial metrics failed to validate on the board’s biometric machines.
- Infraction Review Cases: Select candidates whose primary 2026 UTME results were initially withheld or withdrawn pending administrative evaluation, who have now been cleared for a retest.
Step-by-Step Slip Printing Instructions
To access your new venue allocation, you must print your fresh Examination Notification Slip starting from Saturday, June 6, 2026. Consequently, candidates should follow these exact system tracks:
- Access the Central Web Terminal: Open your browser and navigate straight to the official JAMB profile link at www.jamb.gov.ng.
- Locate the Printing Interface: Click on the dedicated “Print UTME Mop-Up Exam Slip” banner displayed on the home dashboard.
- Input Profile Metrics: Type in your active 2026 JAMB Registration Number, registered email address, or GSM phone number used during profile code creation.
- Generate and Save: Click “Print” to allow the portal to pull your fresh data sheet containing your assigned center, precise batch timing, and state coordinates.
- Print Hard Copy: Print out at least two colored duplicate copies of the slip to present at the entry gate of your exam center.
