After accepting your admission on JAMB CAPS, the next step is to print your JAMB admission letter. Universities ask for it during clearance and registration, so print it early.
Before you print
- You must have accepted the admission on CAPS. See how to accept admission.
- Your O’Level result must be uploaded on your JAMB profile.
- Have your JAMB registration number, email and password ready.
Steps to print
- Log in to the JAMB e-Facility portal.
- Select Print Admission Letter from the services.
- Pay the service fee using the payment options on the page.
- After payment, return to the same service and enter your registration number.
- Your admission letter will load. Print it in colour and save a PDF copy.
Common errors and fixes
| Error | What it means / what to do |
|---|---|
| “Admission letter not available” | You may not have accepted the offer yet, or acceptance hasn’t been processed. Check CAPS again. |
| Payment made but letter won’t load | Wait a few hours and try again. If it persists, contact JAMB support with your payment reference. |
| Wrong course on the letter | The letter reflects what you accepted on CAPS. Contact your university’s admissions office if there’s a mistake. |
| Name spelt wrongly | Request a data correction from JAMB with supporting documents. |
JAMB admission letter vs university admission letter
They are different documents and you usually need both:
- JAMB admission letter: printed from the JAMB portal after CAPS acceptance.
- University admission letter: printed from your university’s portal, often after paying the acceptance fee.
Frequently asked questions
Can I print it at a cyber café?
Yes. Log in yourself and change your password afterwards if you shared it.
Is the admission letter the same as the result slip?
No. The original result slip shows your UTME score. The admission letter confirms your admission.
