The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has asked all 2025 admission candidates to re-upload their O’Level results at accredited centres.
The directive, announced on Monday through JAMB’s official bulletin shared on X, applies to candidates who uploaded their results before the release of the final 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results.
According to the Board, all earlier uploads have been cleared from its system to prevent errors during the admission process.
JAMB explained that candidates who sat the UTME while awaiting results had rushed to upload incomplete or unofficial results, prompting the reset.
The statement read: “Candidates who sat the UTME with awaiting results are required to upload their O’Level results as soon as they are released. Many began uploading the WAEC 2025 SSCE before the final results were released.
“To avoid any confusion, the Board cleared all prior uploads, and all candidates are now required to re-upload their results, whether or not they differ from the earlier results uploaded.”
JAMB also warned that candidates who fail to comply risk losing their chance of being considered for admission.
“Please re-upload your 2025 SSCE result to the JAMB portal without delay,” the statement added.
The move has triggered mixed reactions, especially among candidates who had rushed to upload their results earlier in compliance with admission requirements.
One X user, @Ndukaphilip43644, asked whether results uploaded before the introduction of the new verification process would still count.
In response, JAMB insisted: “You’re advised to please visit any of our accredited facilities to verify your result. Thank you.”
With this instruction, all candidates are expected to return to JAMB-approved centres nationwide to re-upload their final WAEC results in order to avoid disruptions in their admission process.
