I changed my course in Lautech since a month ago and has reflected on jamb portal immediately but not on school portal since
Pls what can I do
please must one pay via remita alone? i paid via etranzact and they didn’t direct me to make the changes
Payment must not be made via Remita as there are other payment options available, but Remita give a smooth experience, hence the reason it was recommended.
If you made payment using other payment gateway and was not redirected to the page for making changes, you should revisit the change of course page on your profile, and see if the payment is registered on your account already, if it is you will like see an option for correction, if not you can file a complaint to the Board, provided proof of payment to JAMB Central online Support System.
After payment, would the page redirect me to where I would change my name or what!?

Please to change course after post UTME exam registration where will I go to for the change the Jamb office or the university I applied for
Changing course for a school you’ve registered Post UTME for is not an option, unless the school allows change of course (like UNN) after registration.
Sir How can I do changing of course myself
For now, you will have to visit a JAMB accredited centre
I wrote jamb last year 2022 and applied for medicine and surgery. The school I got admission into gave me optometry and I want to change my course to nursing science but I don’t have jamb admission letter,what should I do?
You don’t need JAMB change of course form to this if you have already been admitted to Optometry
Sir, somebody told me once unilag releases cut off mark that I can do change of course again
I tried following these steps and from the Jamb portal, the recent UTME year is 2020 UTME but I wrote this year, hence I can’t go past the 2nd step. How do I go about it, please?
Did you sit for JAMB in 2020?
No, I didn’t. I wrote this year, 2023. Finally saw an option that made it possible for me to make course corrections for year 2023, however I can’t go beyond clicking on the option. I do not know why.
How we’re you able to change to the year 2023
what if i dont do any change of course but the change is already reflecting on my jamb caps? do i still need to do change of course again?
The only way you get a change Course on JAMB CAPS is if the admission was through JAMB Transfer approval. If this is the case, you will still need to apply for JAMB change of course
