JAMB Restores CAPS and Sets 2026/2027 Admission Deadlines

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has restored its Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) following a temporary disruption. In a statement issued on Monday, JAMB directed tertiary institutions to expedite their admission processes to meet the newly established deadlines for the 2026/2027 academic session.
Public universities are required to finalize their admission exercises by October 31, 2026, while private universities have until November 30, 2026. Other tertiary institutions must complete their admission processes by December 31, 2026.
JAMB also advised candidates awaiting their examination results to upload or verify their credentials after the release of the 2026 National Examinations Council (NECO) Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) results. This update is crucial to ensure candidates' results are available as institutions intensify their admission activities.
JAMB apologized for the inconvenience caused by the disruption and thanked stakeholders for their patience. CAPS is JAMB’s electronic platform for managing admissions into Nigerian tertiary institutions.
