JAMB To Use Pin Vending For 2017 UTME Test
The Head of Media and Information of the Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board (JAMB), Dr. Fabian Benjamin, says the board will
adopt “pin vending” for the 2017 UTME test, advising intending
candidates to get familiar with the new approach.
Dr. Fabian who disclosed this news men yesterday in Lagos said that the board would no longer use scratch cards. Speaking to our correspondent Dr. Fabian said, “Candidates, wishing to sit for the 2017 examination, should start getting themselves familiar with the newly adopted process of pin vending by the board. “We must make ourselves open to change like it is obtained in other climes. We are no longer going back to the use of scratch card; that method is outdated. Candidates wishing to register for the examination will just make online payment and get a pin with which they can upload their data. This new pin vending will be accessible through the options of web payment, ATM issued cards like Visa, Verve, and Master card, online Quick Teller, mobile application and Bank Branch case/card.’’
Benjamin assured that the board was working hard to redress all challenges experienced by candidates during its 2016 UTME as it was preparing for the 2017 diet. He said all hands were on deck to ensure a hitch-free conduct of the examination across the country. Preparations are on to ensure that all the technical hitches that manifested in the 2016 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) do not arise again.
