The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has restored its Central Admissions Processing System, CAPS, after a temporary disruption.
In a statement on its X platform, the Board urged tertiary institutions to speed up their admission processes and recover lost time ahead of the 2026/2027 admission deadlines.
JAMB also advised candidates to promptly accept admission offers made through the platform.
Public universities are expected to conclude admissions by October 31, 2026, private universities by November 30, while other tertiary institutions have until December 31.
The Board also urged candidates awaiting their 2026 National Examinations Council, NECO, Senior School Certificate Examination, SSCE, results to upload or verify their results promptly to ensure their credentials are available for admission consideration.
“CAPS is back and fully operational,” JAMB stated, while apologising for the inconvenience caused by the disruption and thanking candidates, institutions and other stakeholders for their patience.
