The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB has
back-off on its new policy adopted on July 14 to
redistribute candidates to universities.
JAMB’s Public Relation Officer, Mr. Benjamin Fabian who
disclosed this to Vanguard Tuesday in a telephone
conversations said: ”Candidates should go and write the
post-UTME in their institutions of first choices.”
He, however noted that after the post-UTME in their
universities of first choice, if necessary, JAMB is still going
to redistribute them.


He said: “When they write the post-UTME in the schools
of their first choices, they may wish to consider the other
places we have taken them to for admissions.


”The reason is that if they don’t get admission in their first
choices institution, they will get in the second.”
He explained that JAMB’s effort in redistributing
candidates was only geared towards helping candidates of
over-subscribed institutions gain admission to other
federal or state universities rather than wasting their
scores.


You will recalled that JAMB had last week announced its
new policy to redistributes candidates to universities other
than their first choice.


The development which generated sharp criticism from
stakeholders almost paralysed some of the most sought
after universities in the country.
