Prospective candidates seeking admission for the 2026/2027 academic session have been alerted to a reported change in the process of accepting admission through the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board's (JAMB) Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS).
According to information circulating among admission seekers, candidates may now be able to accept their admission offers directly on CAPS without first using SMS shortcodes 55019 or 66019.
The reported development could make the admission acceptance process more convenient for candidates who previously relied on SMS to complete the procedure.
What Does This Mean for 2026/2027 Admission Seekers?
If the reported change applies to a candidate's admission status, the candidate may be able to accept an admission offer by logging into the official JAMB e-Facility and accessing CAPS.
Candidates should follow the instructions displayed on their accounts and confirm that the admission offer is available before attempting to accept it.
How to Accept Admission Through JAMB CAPS
Candidates can check their admission status by following these steps:
- Visit the official JAMB e-Facility portal: https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/
- Log in using the email address and password associated with their JAMB profile.
- Access the CAPS section of the portal.
- Open the admission status section and check whether an admission offer is available.
- If an offer is displayed, ACCEPT OR REJECT IT
Candidates should ensure that their admission status is correctly reflected on the official platform and keep evidence of their admission acceptance where available.
Important Notice to Candidates
Although the reported change is welcome news for prospective students, candidates should confirm the development through official JAMB announcements or the instructions displayed on their CAPS accounts before relying on it.
Candidates should also avoid sharing their login details or paying unauthorised individuals to accept admission on their behalf.
Admission seekers are advised to monitor official JAMB channels for confirmation and further instructions regarding the admission acceptance process for the 2026/2027 academic session.
