How to upload O’level result on JAMB portal without visiting CBT centre

Candidates seeking admission in Nigeria can now upload their O'level results directly from home, thanks to a new system introduced by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB). This eliminates the need for candidates to visit Computer-Based Test (CBT) centers for this process.

As a responsive organisation committed to providing efficient and accessible services, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has facilitated the verification of candidates’ O’Level results directly from the various examination bodies responsible for conducting the Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (SSCE), beginning with the West African Examinations Council (WAEC).

Fabian Benjamin, JAMB's Acting Director of Public Affairs and Protocol, announced the development on X. The Board has established a system for verifying candidates' O'level results directly with the examination bodies responsible for issuing them, starting with the West African Examinations Council (WAEC). "Consequently, candidates can now upload their O’Level results from the comfort of their homes, while the Board undertakes the verification of such results directly with the issuing examination bodies," Benjamin stated.

This initiative is part of JAMB's commitment to making its services more accessible, efficient, and convenient. By leveraging technology, the Board aims to reduce unnecessary visits to CBT centers, minimize queues, and streamline manual processes. "By using technology to reduce unnecessary visits to CBT centres, queues and manual processes, JAMB is putting candidate ease of service delivery at the centre of its operations," Benjamin explained.

The initiative is part of the Board’s renewed commitment to making services easier, faster, safer and more convenient for candidates.

The new arrangement also addresses persistent challenges associated with manual O'level result uploads. These include issues like misplaced or mixed-up paper results, the presentation of unverified or fraudulent results, and errors made during the manual entry of subjects and grades. Through the integration of JAMB's e-Facility platform with examination bodies, results can now be verified against the issuing bodies' records before being added to candidates' profiles.
