Frequently Asked Questions
Can I send my full name to 55019 to get profile code?
This was the method used in 2018 to get profile code. According to JAMB registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, this method no longer works following the introduction of National Identification Number (NIN) as part of JAMB registration process.
How can I get JAMB profile code for registration?
I have explained the new method in details in this article. Check it out, it's quite easy and straightforward.

No, your name will be sent together with your JAMB profile code. This will be the name you used during NIN registration and you cannot change it AFTER requesting for your JAMB profile code.
What if I made a mistake in my name during NIN registration?
In that case, you should change your name on NIN database before you request for your JAMB profile code. To do that, go to any NIN registration centre and tell them you want to correct an error in your bio data.

Yes, the National Identification Number (NIN) has become a compulsory part of JAMB registration process. You cannot get your JAMB profile code or purchase JAMB e-PIN without it.

If you registered for JAMB in 2018, you can still use the same number to get your JAMB profile code. However, two people are not allowed to use the same phone number.
