Understanding JAMB CAPS Admission Status

Understand common JAMB CAPS admission messages and what each stage means for your admission process.

STEP 1

PROPOSED FOR ADMISSION

Your institution has proposed you for admission. The admission is still being processed and has not reached final JAMB approval.

STEP 2

RECOMMENDED FOR ADMISSION

Your institution has put you forward for admission and the recommendation is being processed for JAMB approval.

STEP 3

APPROVED FOR ADMISSION

JAMB has approved the admission recommendation. Follow the instructions on CAPS and your institution's portal for the next required steps.

STEP 4

ADMISSION IN PROGRESS

Your admission is still being processed. Continue monitoring CAPS and avoid taking actions based on unverified messages or screenshots.

STEP 5

NOT ADMITTED

No admission has been approved for you at that time. This can change while an institution is still processing admission, so continue checking official channels.
