The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has directed all tertiary institutions to begin the conduct of the first and second choice admissions from November 18, 2020.

The board gave this directive after the dissolve of the general lockdown imposed on all states and local governments within the country.

Dr Fabian, the JAMB spokesman in the guidelines, warned institutions against duplication of forms, adding that they should stop the of selling forms for admissions into some listed programmes.

The board also urged institutions to advise all candidates to apply for the programmes through its office, adding that all admission exercise must be conducted on the Central Admission Processing System, CAPS.

This implies that all applications for admissions to First Degree, National Diploma (ND), National Innovation Diploma and the Nigeria Certificate in Education (NCE) into full-time, distance learning, part-time, outreach, sandwich, etc, must be processed only through JAMB CAPS.

The board also laid emphasis on the issue of double registration, explaining that there's no need for a student to obtain both the UTME form and the Direct entry form.
This explains the function of the upgrade button in the JAMB website. It is a command to convert your UTME platform to a DE platform.
