FCT, Abuja - The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said its admission letter can only be processed "once in a lifetime".

Legit.ng reports that JAMB stated this on Thursday, August 22, while responding to an online inquiry.

JAMB said:

"You should also be aware that you can only process a JAMB admission letter once in a lifetime."Processing a retroactive letter of admission has nothing to do with getting a fresh admission."

JAMB sends message to Polytechnic students

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that JAMB confirmed the August deadline for national diploma (ND) students of 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 sets to regularise if they do not possess its (JAMB's) admission letters.

It maintained that failure by the concerned students to regularise within the stipulated timeline will disqualify them from participating in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).

The body added that ND students who did not regularise will also be prohibited from applying for direct entry (DE) — a route that can get them admission to 200 level in the university.
