FCT, Abuja - Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) candidates need to check the JAMB 2024 matriculation list and ensure their names aren’t missing. This is because only candidates whose names appear on the list are legitimate students of accredited tertiary institutions in Nigeria.

The major fallback for candidates who fail to find their names on the JAMB matriculation list is that their application for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme will not go through.
