JAMB Restores CAPS, Sets Admission Deadlines for 2026
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the restoration of its Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) after a temporary disruption, allowing universities to proceed with the 2026/2027 admission exercise. In a statement released on Monday, JAMB confirmed that the platform is fully operational and urged institutions to accelerate their admission processes to compensate for lost time.
Public universities are required to finalize their admission processes by October 31, 2026, while private universities have until November 30, 2026. JAMB also advised candidates who receive admission offers to accept them promptly and called on those awaiting examination results to upload or verify their credentials following the release of the 2026 National Examinations Council (NECO) Senior School Certificate Examination results.
The board expressed regret for the inconvenience caused by the disruption and thanked all stakeholders for their patience.
