1) NO NAME HAS BEEN UPLOADED:
And no name will be uploaded until after August
26th. It will be recalled that Jamb convened a
technical committee meeting between 22nd
August and 26th August to cross-check the
admission list of various institutions (JAMB
CONVENES ADMISSION MEETING). This simply
means that Jamb is trying to keep to her word
and ensure that all schools abide by this new
decree. So presently, no university's list has
been screened, even universities that have
released their lists are still at a risk.
2)THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS POSTING:
We had to switch this to point two so as to be
able to hammer on the importance. Jamb has
cancelled the posting (JAMB CANCELS
ADMISSION LISTS SENT TO SCHOOLS
fullgists.com Once Posted It!) and schools have
already started their screening so that ship has
sailed, don't worry, it's not coming back again,
but it could still yet be useful.
3) ONLY NAMES SENT BY INSTITUTIONS WILL
BE UPLOADED:
Please do not assume that Jamb still has
anything to do with your admission right now. As
was stated clearly in one of the circulars made
available to the public by Jamb, the
responsibility of admitting prospective
candidates lies solely with the administrators of
your school, that is, the school senate and all
what not. So if your 'Uncle who is a prof' tells
you that Jamb is now admitting candidates, well
just mark that out as a blatant lie. Which leads
to the most important fact...
4) UNIVERSITIES THAT ARE YET TO COMMENCE
THEIR SCREENING MIGHT JUST USE THE JAMB
POSTING:
Let's be honest, there is no way any school can
organise her screening and finish it before the
deadline set by Jamb which is two days from
now. Yes we Said So!! So it is not
impossible for some schools to just adopt the
list and forego the expenses attached to the
screening. For all those who do not know, this
particular mode of screening requires a lot of
funds and expertise, school portals have to
brought down and reconstructed before they
can be able to successfully screen documents
which are uploaded to their sites, not to
mention the time and delay it could cause. So if
your school is yet to release their screening
form and going by what the new Jamb Registrar
said then they might just use the Jamb posting
(JAMB ORDERS UNIVERSITIES TO PROVIDE
ADMISSION LISTS) and avoid all other
formalities. So aspirants are generally adviced to
hold their horses and avoid holding their breath
because at the end of the day, Jamb might just
be bluffing, this isn't the first time. But the
recent sacking of the Jamb registrar shows that
the Minister means business and for the first
time in forever, we might just have a competent
board.
