The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the results of 632,788 candidates who sat for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) on Thursday, April 16, 2026.
Candidates are advised to check their results using the same phone number (SIM) used during registration.
In a statement signed by JAMB spokesperson, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the board noted that candidates can only view their results at this stage, as result printing is not yet available.
The board also warned candidates against tampering with or manipulating the SMS results issued from its official platform to falsify or alter scores in a bid to mislead others, including parents.
JAMB described such actions as a serious criminal offence.
According to the statement, two candidates and one parent are currently in custody for allegedly engaging in result falsification using artificial intelligence and other electronic methods.
