If you gained admission into any accredited tertiary institution in Nigeria, you need to confirm that JAMB recognizes your admission. The JAMB Matriculation List is the official record that proves your admission is valid. Without your name on this list, JAMB does not recognize you as a legitimate student, no matter what your school says.
Why You Must Check the JAMB Matriculation List
If your name is missing from the matriculation list, your admission is not valid. You will not be eligible for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program after graduation. This check is not optional — every student must confirm their admission status.
How to Qualify for the JAMB Matriculation List
To secure your place on the list, follow these steps:
- Print your JAMB Admission Letter from the JAMB e-Facility Portal
- Print your JAMB Original Result Slip from the same portal
- Take both documents to your school’s admission office for verification
How to Check Your Name on the JAMB Matriculation List
Follow these steps:
- Visit the official portal: https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/CheckMatriculationList
- Select your examination year
- Enter your JAMB Registration Number
- Click on “Fetch My Details”
- View your name and admission details, if available
What It Means If Your Name Is Not on the List
If your details do not appear, JAMB has not recognized your admission. You cannot proceed with NYSC or any JAMB-related processing, and you must resolve the issue quickly. Print the required documents, verify them with your institution, and recheck the portal.
Final Reminder
Only students whose names appear on the JAMB Matriculation List can participate in NYSC. This check takes just a few minutes but determines your future eligibility for national service and government recognition.
