The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has stated that students who had already gained admission into any tertiary institution will not be eligible to write the 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

According to JAMB's Head of Information and Public Relations, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, who made this known on Monday, students that are not satisfied with their course should apply for change of degree.

He said, "Students with matriculation numbers of universities are not eligible to sit for the UTME. If they are not satisfied with their chosen disciplines, they can ask for transfer.’’

The JAMB spokesperson also expressed confidence that despite the hitches in the registration process being witnessed across the country, all 1.5m candidates expected to register for the 2017 UTME would be registered by the April 19 deadline.

He reiterated that there would be no extension to the closing date of the 2017/2018 UTME registration.

Benjamin also said that the exam body have arrested 25 persons over illegal registration and sale of 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) materials.

Na wa o...... I gained admission last year, paid the acceptance fee but didn't attend the matric. Have I go any problem?

This is just not fair.

it's easy for him to say transfer coz neither him nor his kids know how difficult it is to change course let alone transfer.

so i can not changed back to MEDICINE?

Good lord knows I wouldn't have been able to go through all these stress just for registration alone. You know the reason for all these chaos? So it would be easy for them to siphon money and hard for security agencies to track.

My heart goes out to all the slay queens, itz and mhiz baes out there jostling for jamb form. I wonder how you keep up

One new rule after another...changing it like they change clothes

And before you know what is happening he/she will spend nearly two years studying the available but not desirable, please change this law

Which kind nonsense is this. Is it a crime to be a Nigerian?

Nigeria! A country where serious attention is allotted to trivial matters!

Nigeria educational system is becoming more like dustbin.

This is definitely not right! Nigerian universities changing people's destiny since 1960

These people are really confused

This is not fair at all.

Why does every possible bad policy have to be implemented under this present administration?

This is the worst JAMB registrars even.

How did Nigeria get to the hands of people who take us backward without reasoning.
