The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that candidates scheduled to participate in the 2026 Mop-Up Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) can now print their examination notification slips ahead of the exercise slated for Saturday, June 13, 2026.
In a statement issued by the Board’s Public Communication Advisor, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, JAMB said the notification slip contains essential details such as candidates’ examination centres, dates, time schedules and other instructions required for a successful examination process.
The Board explained that the mop-up examination is designed for candidates who were unable to take part in the main UTME due to technical challenges, as well as those whose biometric verification could not be successfully completed during the earlier exercise.
JAMB advised all eligible candidates to visit its official website and click on the “Print 2026 Mop-Up UTME Slip” link to access and print their examination slips.
The Board further urged candidates to print their slips early and acquaint themselves with their examination centres before the examination date to avoid last-minute difficulties.
According to JAMB, the mop-up examination represents the final opportunity for eligible candidates to sit for the 2026 UTME, stressing that no further examination will be conducted after the exercise.
The Board therefore called on all affected candidates to take advantage of the opportunity and make adequate preparations ahead of the examination.
