JAMB Mop-Up Slip Printing Procedure For 2026 UTME Candidates

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has informed all candidates scheduled for the 2026 Mop-Up Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) that they can now print their examination notification slips.

The mop-up examination will be held on Saturday, 13 June 2026.

Who Should Print The 2026 JAMB Mop-Up UTME Slip?

Candidates scheduled to take part in the 2026 Mop-Up UTME should print their examination notification slips through the Board's portal, as the slip is the document that shows each candidate's centre, date, time and examination instructions.

The Board scheduled the mop-up UTME for candidates who could not sit their earlier examinations because of technical challenges and for candidates whose biometric verification could not be completed during the main exercise.

What Details Are On The JAMB Mop-Up Slip?

The notification slip contains the candidate's examination centre, examination date, examination time and other instructions required for the exercise.

Candidates should read the slip carefully after printing it, since the centre and time on the slip will guide their movement on the examination day.

When Will The 2026 JAMB Mop-Up UTME Be Held?

The 2026 Mop-Up UTME will be held on Saturday, 13 June 2026.

Candidates are advised to print their slips well before the examination date and they should become familiar with their examination centres before the day of the examination.

How Can Candidates Print The JAMB Mop-Up Slip?

Eligible candidates can print their slips through the JAMB mop-up examination portal.

1. Visit the JAMB 2026 Mop-Up UTME slip printing portal.
2. Enter the JAMB registration number or email address in the space provided.
3. Click "Print Examination Slip".
4. Print the slip once it is displayed.

Candidates should keep the printed slip safe after printing, as it carries the details needed for the examination.

Why Should Candidates Print The Slip Early?

Early printing gives candidates enough time to check their examination centre, confirm the examination time and plan their movement before Saturday, 13 June 2026.

Late printing may place a candidate under avoidable pressure, especially where the centre is unfamiliar.

Will JAMB Conduct Another UTME After The Mop-Up Examination?

JAMB has stated that the 2026 Mop-Up UTME is the final chance for eligible candidates to sit the 2026 UTME.

No further examination will be conducted after this exercise.

What Should Candidates Do After Printing The Slip?

Candidates should read all details on the slip, check their centre, note the examination time and prepare for the examination as scheduled.

The Board expects eligible candidates to take the mop-up examination seriously, since this exercise is the last chance provided for the 2026 UTME.
