Are you finding it hard to login into your JAMB profile account? Have you forgotten your JAMB username or password, and all your efforts to access your profile were fruitless?
Don’t worry if you belong to any of the categories above because there are ways to retrieve your JAMB password and username without paying a dime.
However, you have to read every bit of information contained in this post with rapt attention as we will show you the step-by-step guide to knowing your JAMB password and username.
JAMB username is the unique email address you provided or used while creating an account on the JAMB portal. In other words, it is the email you used during your UTME registration.
JAMB password is the code you used while registering for JAMB UTME exam. The JAMB officials in charge of the registration exercise often use candidates’ phone number or surnames as passwords.
Therefore, we advise you try your phone number or surname as the password and see if any of the two would work.
Ensure you click the “forgot password” link on the JAMB e-facility login page if the phone number and surname didn’t provide the solution.
You will be asked to provide your registered email address where you will receive a link to change or create a new password.
Go to your email address, check your inbox, open the message, click the link in the message, and you will be redirected to your default browser. Follow subsequent steps to change your password and you will be fine.
Knowing your JAMB username shouldn’t be a problem if you have your UTME slip with you.
Check the slip; you will see the email address you registered with JAMB. The email is your JAMB username.
As mentioned above, JAMB officials or other computer experts who register candidates for the JAMB UTME exam prefer using surname or phone number as candidates’ password.
Unfortunately, this is impossible. No one can login into the JAMB portal with the registration number only. You need your password and registration number or email address to access your JAMB account.
This is why you must use an active email address while registering for JAMB as you might need it to retrieve your password in the future. Similarly, you will need the email address to receive crucial updates from the examination body.
Your JAMB CAP password is the same password you used to access JAMB e-facility. In other words, it is the password given to you by the CBT representative during registration.
You don’t need a new password for JAMB CAPS. Provide the one you use for e-facility with your email address and you will have access to your JAMB profile or account.
Incorrect password and wrong username (email address) are common reasons why you can’t login to your JAMB CAPS profile.
A poor internet network can also make it impossible to login into your JAMB CAPS profile.
It is also possible you don’t know how to locate the ‘login’ option in the JAMB official portal. Therefore, let’s briefly discuss how to access your JAMB CAPS profile without stress or difficulty.
Below is a quick rundown of the steps you must take to check your JAMB admission status on your profile:
“No offered admission yet” will display on your screen if you haven’t gained admission into any university
You can’t login to your JAMB profile because you have provided incorrect login details, like password and email address.
Poor internet network is also a possible factor responsible for your inability to login into your jump profile.
Yes, you can access your JAMB CAPS without email because the portal supports registration number. Therefore, your registration number can replace your email address.
However, ensure you know your password because there are no alternatives to password.
Your JAMB cap username is the email address used while registering for the JAMB-UTME email examination. Ensure the email address is active and accessible.
JAMB CAP password is the code given to you during the registration exercise. It is one of the details you need to login into your JAMB official portal
Is your JAMB CAPS showing “welcome” while the rest of the page is blank? That’s because you are viewing the page with your phone browser. You might need to visit the page on your laptop or desktop.
Alternatively, change your Chrome browser’s settings to desktop mode so the page will display fully on your phone screen.
To log in to your JAMB account, you'll need your username and password. Your username is your profile code, which you should have received from either 55019 or 66019. Your password is the one you created. If you forget your password, there is a 'Forgot Password' link where you can reset it using your registered email address. You can access the login portal through the JAMB website.
Your Jamb username is your email address while the password is the code you received from the cbt officials during registration. Follow the steps highlighted above to get a new password if you’ve misplaced the initial one.
