Question

JAMB profile code is a unique number given by JAMB to student upon their registration, students registering for JAMB UTME or Direct entry for the first time will be given this code

…but students that registered already but forgot it due to one reason or the other will have to retrieve it.

If you must do anything in your JAMB account like Correct a mistake on your JAMB Profile Name, Date of birth (DOB) or even upload your O’level result to your JAMB Portal at an accredited JAMB CBT centre you will be asked to provide your JAMB profile code, hence it is sacrosanct you keep it safe.

If you are still not sure what this number is, let me make it simple for you…

…remember when you were registering your JAMB, you were asked to send your NIN (National Identification Number) to this unique number “55019” after which you received a feedback message containing a set of numbers; 10 digit long (3400*****), this number is your JAMB PROFILE CODE.
