JAMB CBT Centres in Nigeria and Abroad

So here we are again. Another JAMB season. The stress, the rush, the forms, the uncertainty. And somewhere in the middle of it all, there’s this very small but deeply important detail: where you register.

Now, you might think any cafe down the road can handle your JAMB registration. But no, not anymore. If it’s not one of the approved JAMB CBT centres, just waka pass.

Let me break it down.

Why You Should Only Register at JAMB-Approved Centres

JAMB didn’t just wake up one day and start picking centres. They’ve been dealing with messy registrations for years. You know those stories, yeah? Wrong names. Swapped schools. Photos that look like your uncle instead of you.

So, to avoid wahala, JAMB said, “Enough.” And they created official Computer Based Test (CBT) centres to handle registrations. These are monitored. Verified. And if something goes wrong, at least you know where to point fingers.

If you register at an unapproved place, you risk errors, fake printouts, or worst of all, invalid registration. And guess who suffers? Not the centre. You.

Where Can You Find These Approved CBT Centres?

All over Nigeria. Every state has a list of centres JAMB trusts. Whether you’re in Lagos traffic or chilling in Yola, there’s an option nearby. Here’s how to check.

What About Candidates Abroad?

Yes, JAMB didn’t forget you. If you’re outside Nigeria, there are eight places where you can register for UTME. These are mostly Nigerian embassies or consulates.

Here’s the list:

  • Nigerian Embassy, Abidjan, Cote D’Ivoire
  • Nigerian High Commission, Accra, Ghana
  • Nigerian Embassy, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
  • Nigerian Consulate, Beau, Cameroun
  • Nigerian Consulate, Cotonou, Benin Republic
  • Nigerian Consulate, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
  • Nigerian Consulate, Johannesburg, South Africa
  • Nigerian High Commission, London, United Kingdom
  • Nigerian Embassy, Berlin, Germany

If you’re based in any of these countries, you can register without flying home. Just head to the Nigerian mission closest to you.

Before You Go

Look, JAMB on its own is already plenty stress. The last thing you want is to start your admission journey with a wrong step. Whether you’re in Ibadan or Berlin, find the right place to register. Approved CBT centres exist to make sure your data is correct and that you don’t get bounced for small errors.

As the saying goes, “no go dull yourself.” Double-check where you’re registering. It might just save you a long, expensive mistake.
