JAMB has announced a mop-up exam for 2021 UTME. According to JAMB. the mop-up UTME, which is a computer-based standardized examination for prospective undergraduates in Nigeria, will hold on August 6, 2021, in select locations across the country.

About 18,000 candidates are expected to partake in the exam. The candidates have been notified through both text messages on their designated phone numbers and their JAMB profiles.

Candidates are to print their slip for the mop-up exam via the procedure below from August 1st;

• Visit: https://www.jamb.gov.ng/2021mopup
• Enter your JAMB Registration Number in the space provided
• Click on "Print Mop-Up Examination Slip" to print your slip

The board equally stated that no candidate whose result has been duly released will be rescheduled for another examination contrary to the sponsored fake news being circulated on the social (and a few mischievous conventional) media.

The candidates for the mop-up are candidates who experienced biometric verification challenges, those who genuinely missed the just-concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination as a result of a clash with this year’s NABTEB exam, and those that had genuine technical issues.
