What Is JAMB Admission Status?
JAMB Admission status is the relative position or standing of a student with respect to admission, this status could be admission in progress, admitted or not admitted when checked on JAMB CAPS
Those whose status shows admitted have been offered provisional admission by the school they choose in JAMB, while those showing Not admitted or Admission in progress are still currently waiting for admission.
I have explained the terms used on JAMB CAPS here.
How To Check Admission Status To Confirm Admission
There are 2 prominent ways to check your Admission status;
- JAMB CAPS (recommended)
- Through your School Student’s Portal
I only recommend using JAMB CAPS because accepting or Rejecting the admission offered to you have a time frame (deadline), so if you don’t accept the admission within this time, you risk loosing the admission.
But this do not mean, you should only check your Admission status through JAMB CAPS, my recommendation is, you check Admission status on JAMB CAPS first and then move on to your School’s Website to check again.
In summary, make sure you use the two methods I will be showing you here today.
Now that you know the two ways you can check admission Status online, let me now show you the right way to go about it… ENJOY!?
