All You Need to Know About JAMB Regularization 2025/2026
JAMB regularization is the only way to obtain your JAMB admission letter in 2025.
It would be recalled that in 2024, JAMB declared that all admissions into tertiary institutions in Nigeria must be processed through the Central Admission Processing System (CAPS).
JAMB said it would no longer condone any illegal or irregular admission conducted by any tertiary institution.
According to JAMB, admissions to first degree, ND, HND, and NCE, including full-time, part-time, distance learning, outreach, sandwich, among others, must be processed ONLY through JAMB CAPS.
Despite this warning, JAMB regularization is still Ongoing, and the board has not yet shut down the regularization portal.
You can still apply for JAMB regularization in 2025 or obtain the form online.

Reasons for JAMB Regularization
Here is why JAMB Regularization is Necessary:
- If your admission is ILLEGAL, JAMB regularization is the only way to LEGALISE it.
- By doing JAMB regularization, you can get your JAMB admission letter if offered admission outside the JAMB CAPS portal.
- Through JAMB regularisation, you can get an admission letter from JAMB if you don’t have one.
- If you didn’t upload your O’level results to JAMB CAPS portal before or after gaining admission, your details may not match JAMB’s records, which can only be corrected through JAMB regularisation.
- If you were admitted into a course different from what you originally applied for and did not update your course on JAMB CAPS, you may encounter issues that necessitate regularization.
