The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, (JAMB), has approved the admission of 85 underage candidates, after a rigorous and comprehensive screening process conducted under its exceptional admission policy.
In a statement by its public communication adviser, Fabian Benjamin, the 85 candidates were adjudged qualified following a meticulous evaluation and have been duly notified to proceed to their respective institutions to complete their admission process and print their individual JAMB admission letters.
JAMB explained that the exceptional admission policy aligns with global best practices, where underage cases are treated as rare exceptions rather than the norm.
