JAMB 2025 Exam Date, Slip Reprinting & Key Updates for All Candidates
As the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) approaches, candidates across Nigeria are gearing up for one of the most important academic tests in the country. Whether you're fully prepared or still doing some catching up, there are essential updates you need to know — especially about the exam date and slip reprinting process.
JAMB 2025 Exam Date
According to the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), the main UTME examination is scheduled to begin on:
Thursday, April 25, 2025
and will run till Friday, May 2, 2025.
Candidates are expected to be fully ready before this date, as the board does not tolerate lateness, missed exams, or non-compliance with instructions at the examination centres.
When Will JAMB Slip Reprinting Start?
Slip reprinting is a critical step that tells you exactly:
- Your examination date
- Your centre/venue
- And your exam time
JAMB typically enables the reprinting portal one week before the exam starts. That means reprinting is expected to start around April 18–20, 2025.
Once the reprinting portal is open, every candidate must:
- Go to https://portal.jamb.gov.ng/ExamSlipPrinting
- Enter their JAMB Registration Number or email/phone number used during registration
- Click Print Examination Slip
Make sure to print it in colour if possible and keep multiple copies for backup.
Why JAMB Slip Reprinting is Important
The examination slip shows:
- Your actual UTME date (not everyone writes on the same day)
- Your CBT centre location
- Your subject combination and schedule
- Instructions for exam day
Failure to reprint and show up at your assigned centre could cost you your exam.
