New method to create JAMB profile code for 2021/2022 UTME registration – That is exactly what I am going to discuss in today’s guide.
Don’t worry, this article is loaded with everything you need to know before JAMB registration.
In fact, I have compiled the most asked questions and their right answers at the end of this guide.
Trust me, you are going to enjoy it.
The latest update on JAMB registration is that JAMB will use NIN for 2021 UTME registration.
That is, you will need to get your NIN to register for JAMB.
Although it was cancelled last year because JAMB thought candidates were not informed early enough, so the use was postponed to 2021.
How To Get JAMB Profile Code For 2021/2022 Registration
- First, you need to obtain your NIN. Click here to see how to get NIN for JAMB registration.
- Let’s say that your NIN is “12345678910″, send an SMS in the format “NIN 12345678910” to 55019 (without the two “).
- You will receive a 10 digits profile code on the SIM card you sent it with.
If you do not receive your JAMB profile code (which you need to get your e-PIN) after a few minutes, I have compiled a few tips that might help, check it in the article here.
NOTE:
The phone number used for the text message is automatically tied to the candidate’s 2021 application, Examination and Admission. CANDIDATES SHOULD NOTE AND ALWAYS REMEMBER THE SIM NUMBER USED, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE FOR SUBSEQUENT COMMUNICATION WITH THE BOARD BY OBTAINING UTME/DE APPLICATION DOCUMENTS, A CANDIDATE HAS ACCEPTED TO RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES FROM JAMB (55019) EVEN WHEN THE “DO NOT DISTURB” IS ACTIVATED.
Quite easy, right? Well, that’s not all.
After obtaining your JAMB profile code, what is next?
Simply put: You will use your unique JAMB profile code to purchase JAMB e-PIN which will be used to complete your JAMB registration at the CBT centre.

Using last year’s profile code will jamb send last year jamb score?

im trying to apply for a change of course for a friend… Note this friend had already written jamb 2020…… after payment and all they are asking for portal code and it seems she never created one… so the question now is, how do we create a portal code for someone that had already written 2020jamb?
Portal code or profile code?
