Again, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board,JAMB,has said it would not offer admission to candidates below the age of 16 years in its 2024/2025 admission session.

The board which vowed to enforce the directive of the Minister of Education,Prof. Tahir Mamman that candidates below the age of 16 should not be admitted into tertiary institutions, especially universities, advised candidates below the required age not to think of admission this year.

This is as the board noted that in the 2025 admission session, only candidates that attained the age of 18 would be considered for admission in line with the directive of the minister during the 2024 National Policy Meeting.
