The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the results of candidates who sat in more than 720 CBT centres for the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination conducted between June 19 and June 22.
Dr Fabian Benjamin, JAMB Spokesperson, made this known in a statement made available to journalists in Abuja on Friday.
Benjamin advised each concerned candidate to check their result by sending UTMERESULT to 55019 through the GSM number used by each candidate to obtain profile code and UTME registration with the board.
He said that their results would be relayed to them immediately after following the instructions given to check the results.
He added that the results for subsequent days would, however, be released daily.
“The Board notes with satisfaction that the utilisation of NIN (National Identification Number) has helped in curbing examination malpractices as the 2021 UTME has recorded the least incidence of irregularities since the inception of the CBT examinations.
“Nevertheless, the Board would still review all the CCTV footages and other technical gadgets for detection of possible examination misconducts.
“Extremely comparatively few results are being withheld for further investigation,” he said.
He, therefore, said that the Board would not hesitate to withdraw the results of any candidate subsequently found to have committed any form of examination misconduct.

All the candidates will send UTMERESULT, via SMS, to 55019 with the same number that was used to register for the exam (You need to have a credit balance of at least N50 on your line). The result will be replied to as an SMS immediately.
If a candidate uses a phone number that was not used for registration, a message will be sent to you saying that the phone number was not used for registration.
Candidate with results will receive the message, Dear Mr/Miss X, your result is as follows… (and details will be provided).
If JAMB has withheld your result, a “Result Withheld” message will be sent to the candidate.
If a candidate belongs to the category being given the benefit of the doubt, the message to the person will be:
“Result withheld pending the upload of clarifications/document required from you.”
If a candidate was absent, he/she would get “CANDIDATE ABSENT” as feedback
If the candidates need to print out their result slip, they would need to follow these easy steps although according to the JAMB website, candidates would need to pay a sum of N1,000 to print their results.
