The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has extended closing date for the 2023 Direct Entry (DE) registration by one week.

A statement yesterday by the Board’s Head of Public Affairs and Protocol, Fabian Benjamin, said the DE registration, which started on March 20, and billed to end on April 20, had been extended by one week, starting April 21.

Benjamin said the extension was partly to give all holders of Cambridge A/Level Certificates, who were unable to register for the exercise on account of some issues associated with verification of their certificates, another opportunity to do so.

The  extension also accommodates others who could not register within the stipulated time.
