2027 UTME: A SAFER START FOR CANDIDATE

JAMB has adjusted the arrival time for candidates in the first UTME examination session, moving it from 6:30 a.m. to 7:00 a.m.

The adjustment is aimed at reducing the challenges associated with very early-morning travel, particularly for candidates travelling long distances to their CBT centres.

The decision was reached during the Board’s 2026 Management and IT Retreat, as part of efforts to make the 2027 UTME safer, more efficient and more convenient for candidates.

Please note: The new 7:00 a.m. arrival time applies to the first examination session. Further details on the complete 2027 UTME timetable will be communicated through JAMB’s official channels.

A safer journey. A better UTME experience.
