The first thing you need to know about JAMB admission status is that you need to own an account with the Board. Only candidates who have registered and opened an account with JAMB can access or check admission status.
Another point to note is that, a candidate needs to have sat for the examination at an earlier date which is stated by the Board before proceeding to check his or her admission status. Anyone who registered but didn’t sit for the exams is not expected to check for admission status
Before going online to check for admission status, ensure that you have all the necessary information needed to grant you access on the portal. This information includes your JAMB registration number, the email address you used in opening the account and the password.

The second possible response is that your admission is in progress. What this means is that your admission application is still under review and is being considered by the Board and the institution. Fingers crossed.
The third possible response is that ‘you have not been given admission yet’. This is either due to the fact that the school has exhausted all the slots available for that session or if the supplementary and VC lists are still under review or consideration. In which case the candidate will have to wait for all the lists to be released.
Check the school website regularly to ascertain when all the admission lists are published and recheck your admission status.
