  1. Good evening sir please i mispelt my email address to Jamb and the linked it to my jamb result and right now I don’t have access to the account to know if i have gotten admission , what should i do ??
    Thanks

    1. If this was done correctly, you will get a message containing your Password and JAMB profile code.

      Meanwhile, this can only be done at an accredited JAMB CBT center not at any cyber cafe.

  2. You said we can create an account similar to the one that we put while registering for jamb. How then would we get the email contacting the password to the jamb caps?

  3. I created another email with the wrong email and I tried login in with it but it didn’t open🥲…I tried to login with the password I got that they sent to the number it wrote that the email was invalid

  4. sir pls I have linked my email to jamb and a the email was misspelt but I was able to retrieve my jamb password the cand… own in particular

    But when writing my post utme which email am I to use the misspelt one already linked to my jamb profile or the normal one

    and which password will I be asked for is it the cand….. Or the password to the email

    1. I would advice you create the misspelt email address and use as you proceed with your admission process (that is if you have not already done that)

      What method did you use in getting your profile password?

      Your Cand…. password is only used when you want to login to your JAMB profile.

      1. sir I’ve tried creating an email with the misspelt one but it is already taken

        I got the Cand… password by sending password to 55019 with the number I used in registering

        1. If that is the case, you can use another email address for the rest of your application (post utme registration)

          But when you want to login to your Jamb profile, use the misspelt email address as your username and your generated password (Cand…) as your password.

        2. Am having the same problem since all these days I can’t login to caps and my jamb profile.
          I will do that now to get the password thanks

          1. Sir Please…I can login to my jamb portal and view my profile but the problem I’m having is that I can’t access my caps????…what can I do about that sir

  5. How will I get to know that jamb has answered my support ticket🧐🤔 and by the way I have summited tickets about 3 times🥺😥☹️
