How to Access JAMB Admission Status on the Portal
With the launch of the JAMB CAPS online, JAMB has made things easy for applicants. Candidates can now quickly verify if they have been offered admission into any of Nigeria’s tertiary institutions by logging onto their JAMB CAPS account. Follow the procedures below to verify your admission status on your JAMB CAPS portal.
- Login to the portal or click here
- Input your correct email address and password, then click Login
- After logging in, scroll down the page until you see “Check Admission Status.”
- Click on the “Check admission status” indicated below the page and wait for the page to open
- When the page loads, enter your JAMB registration number and then click on “Access My CAPS” to access the admission portal
- When the next page loads, you will be able to check if you have been accepted into any of Nigeria’s tertiary institutions.
NB: If you are using a phone, the option to check your admission status on the portal may be missing. The welcome message may be the only thing that most phone users see. The caps page displays the welcome message because viewing the entire website requires you to activate the desktop mode. This is why, if you are using a phone, the Chrome browser is suggested. You have to go to Chrome and select ‘request desktop site’ for the entire page to appear.
That is all there is to it when checking admission status using the JAMB CAPS portal.
