The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially commenced the sale of application documents for the 2026 Direct Entry programme. The registration period will run from Monday, 2nd March 2026 to Saturday, 25th April 2026.
According to the announcement made on JAMB’s official X account, candidates can purchase e-PINs and application documents exclusively from accredited state and zonal offices across the country.
This programme is designed for candidates with relevant qualifications, such as National Diploma, National Certificate in Education, or A-level certificates, who wish to seek admission directly into 200 level of university programmes, bypassing the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
