2016 Admission: JAMB Say No Candidate Must Emanate From Any Other Source… by Saulawology(m): 1:21pm On Aug 23, 2016 |
Lagos - The Registrar of the
Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board (JAMB),
Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, has
assured that the 2016
admissions into the country's
tertiary institutions will be
smooth and that no candidate
must emanate from any other
source outside the list
prepared and recommended
by the institution.
This is contained in a
statement issued by JAMB on
Tuesday.
Oloyede spoke at the
opening of the first technical
committee meeting on the
2016 admissions to first
choice institutions, which
opened at the Bayero
University, Kano, on Monday.
He said that the only
difference between 2016
admission process and what
had been the practice was
the policy that there should
be no written Post-UTME
test.
The registrar said that all
other processes would be
the way they have always
been.
``It is more pleasant to me
that in the almost four
decades of JAMB, this is the
first time that the technical
meeting will hold in Kano.
``Every year the board
convenes meeting for
placement of suitably
qualified candidates into
tertiary institutions, taking
into consideration vacancies
available.
``It also considers
guidelines approved for each
institution by their
respective proprietors.
``The meeting also looks at
the preference expressed
for the institutions and
courses by the candidates,’’
Oloyede said.
He said that the senates of
each institution have the
prerogative of admitting
candidates to their
respective schools subject
only to national policies.
The policies guidelines
stipulated by the proprietors
of the institutions must
adhere to the 60:40 science/
art ratios for conventional
universities and 80:20
science/art ratios for non-
conventional universities.
He added that the guidelines
also include 70:30
technology/non-technology
ratios for national diploma
awarding institutions, among
others.
``The institutions must
adhere strictly to subject
combinations of various
courses as specified by the
respective Senates and
included in the 2016 UTME
brochure.
``Institutions are expected
to adhere to the 2016
admissions quota as
prescribed by the regulatory
bodies like the National
Universities Commission,
National Board for Technical
Education and the National
Commission for Colleges of
Education.
``For federal universities,
the criteria stipulated by the
Federal Executive Council,
concerning merit, catchment
and educationally less
developed states, should be
complied with.’’
Oloyede further said that in
the discharge of this national
assignment, it was important
that stakeholders act with
focus on what was beneficial
to the largest number of
Nigerians.
``We must avoid adding to
the burden of our people
who rightly yearn for higher
education as a veritable
means of active participation
in public life.
``While urging us to work
hard and exhibit commitment,
synergy and cooperation
between the board and the
institutions, I assure you all
that the hands of fellowship,
which my predecessors have
extended to the institutions,
would be strengthened for
the advancement of national
goals.
``My immediate past
predecessor, Prof. ‘Dibu
Ojerinde, in particular and
others in general, have lifted
the board to an enviable
standard of international
repute and we cannot afford
to do less.
``The task of JAMB is
coordination and not
substitution of the traditional
responsibilities of the
Senates of tertiary
institutions.
``Consequently, no candidate
must emanate from any other
source (JAMB inclusive)
outside the list prepared and
recommended by the
institutions,’’ Oloyede added.
He, however, said that JAMB
had the right to reject
candidates for non-
compliance with extant rules
and regulations but would
not be allowed to substitute
or originate any names
without the prior concurrence
of the institutions.
The registrar tasked
institutions to ensure that
the admissions exercise was
concluded before or by the
approved deadline of Nov.
