The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has directed all candidates who uploaded their O’Level results before the release of the final 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results to return to accredited centres and re-upload their results.
The directive was contained in an official bulletin released on the Board’s X handle on Monday.
JAMB explained that all earlier uploads had been cleared from its system to prevent confusion in the ongoing admission process.
“Candidates who sat the UTME with awaiting results are required to upload their O’Level results as soon as they are released. Many began uploading the WAEC 2025 SSCE before the final results were released. To avoid any confusion, the Board cleared all prior uploads, and all candidates are now required to re-upload their results, whether or not they differ from the earlier results uploaded,” the statement read.

The Board further warned that failure to comply with the directive could affect a candidate’s eligibility for admission.
“Please re-upload your 2025 SSCE result to the JAMB portal without delay,” it added.
The announcement has sparked mixed reactions among candidates, many of whom had rushed to upload their results earlier to meet admission requirements.
Responding to a question from an X user, @Ndukaphilip43644, who sought clarification on results uploaded before the introduction of verification, JAMB maintained its stance, stating: “You’re advised to please visit any of our accredited facilities to verify your result. Thank you.”
With this directive, candidates are expected to promptly visit accredited JAMB centres nationwide to re-upload their final WAEC results to ensure seamless processing of their admission status.
