JAMB 2020 Change Of Course, Institution And Data Correction Process

We understand that the JAMB change of course and institution for 2020 has commenced. Some candidates have confirmed that they were able to process their changes at accredited centres and JAMB offices. So we urge other candidates who wish to change their course/ institution to proceed to an accredited centre or JAMB office for that purpose. You can also correct your Bio-data which include your name, date of birth, gender, State and Local Government of origin.

The process costs N2, 500 only (excluding the service charge by an accredited centre) and can only be processed online, just like every other process of the board.

Before you proceed to do that, please make sure you do the following;

-Be sure of the Course/Institution you would like to make changes. Verify if the course is available in the school using the JAMB Brochure.

-Be sure that the school you are changing to does not have a cut-off mark higher than your score.

- Ensure you select a Course in line with your UTME/Olevel subject combination to avoid being screened out during your school's admission screening exercise.
