You will need the Profile Code to:
1. Buy your JAMB e-PIN
2. Register for UTME or Direct Entry
3. Access JAMB services later
NOTE: Candidates who sat for the UTME in previous years (2023 or 2024) do not need to generate a new profile code for the 2026 UTME. Such candidates should continue using their existing profile code for the 2026 registration process.
This update applies to candidates who already have a valid profile with the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) system.
To purchase your JAMB E-PIN, send a DM to 08056582471 on WhatsApp.
