JAMB Change of Course, Institution and Data Correction 2023

JAMB change of course and institution for 2023 has begun at accredited CBT centers in all the states. Candidates who wish to change their course/Institution can proceed to an accredited center to process their changes.  

You can also correct your Bio-data which includes your name, date of birth, gender, State, and Local Government of origin.

The process costs N2,500 only (excluding the service charge by an accredited center) and can only be processed online, just like every other board process.

Before you proceed to do that, please make sure you do the following;

• Be sure of the Course/Institution you would like to make changes to. Verify if the course is available in the school using the JAMB Brochure.
• Be sure that the school you are changing to does not usually have a cut-off mark higher than your score.
• Ensure you select a Course in line with your UTME/Olevel subject combination to avoid being screened out during your school’s admission screening exercise.

Process Flow

Step 1- Log into your JAMB profile

Step 2- open the menu tab on your JAMB profile

Step 3- Click Register, under register a drop box will appear showing UTME correction of data

Step 4- Click it and follow the steps to pay either online or through the bank. You can make your payment online via the JAMB portal. If you are having difficulties doing that, you can pay the bank.

Step 5- After paying N2500 at the bank plus an additional bank charge of N100 naira, proceed to either the closest JAMB office or a JAMB-accredited center to complete the process. An additional fee will be charged for the service.
