JAMB 2025 UTME Results: Release Date, Official Update, and How to Check Your Score

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has successfully concluded the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), which was held from Wednesday, April 24 to Friday, April 26, 2025. With over 1.9 million candidates nationwide, attention now shifts to when the results will be officially released.

According to a JAMB official update given recently, the 2025 UTME results are expected to be released on Monday, May 5, 2025, following thorough post-examination verification and integrity checks.

JAMB 2025 Key Dates

• Exam Slip Printing Began: Friday, April 19, 2025
• UTME Examination Period: Wednesday, April 24 – Friday, April 26, 2025
• Expected Result Release Date: Monday, May 5, 2025

Why the Delay in Releasing UTME Results?

JAMB does not release results immediately after the examination ends to ensure:

• Biometric Confirmation: Verifying candidates’ identities and thumbprints
• Malpractice Review: Analyzing CCTV footage and technical logs to detect irregularities
• System Integrity Checks: Validating that all CBT data is accurate and untampered

These protocols help ensure the transparency and credibility of the UTME process.
