Is JAMB Direct Entry 2021/22 Form Out
No, but like I said earlier, the registration starting date and closing dates have already been announced.
JAMB has announced that the registration will commence on 8th of April, 2021 and registration will end on the 15th of May, 2021.
These are the same dates that registration will start and end for UTME candidates.
When Will JAMB Direct Entry 2021/2022 Registration End
Like I have said earlier, the JAMB DE 2021/2022 registration will close on the same day UTME registration will close (May 15, 2021).
That’s not all, there are more important information you need to know about JAMB registration in 2021 (for both UTME and Direct Entry candidates).
How To Register For JAMB Direct Entry 2021/22
In case you don’t know, the use of NIN for JAMB 2021 registration has been made compulsory in 2021 and so, if you do not have NIN yet, make sure you get it now before the registration starts.
You will need the NIN to create a JAMB profile for registration.
HOW TO CREATE JAMB PROFILE 2021/2022 FOR DIRECT ENTRY
Creating JAMB Profile enables a candidate’s information to be stored in JAMB Database and allows for easy registration. The following information below are very important concerning JAMB Profile Creation.
