The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) manages admission into Nigerian tertiary institutions through an online system called the Central Admissions Processing System, commonly known as JAMB CAPS. This portal is the official platform where all candidates can check their admission status for the 2025/2026 academic session.
JAMB CAPS serves as the central hub that connects you, the candidate, with your chosen institution’s admission process. It helps you verify whether your admission has been approved, accepted by the institution, or is pending. It also lets you accept or reject any admission offers you receive.
Because admission information is sensitive and important, it’s important to always use the correct and official JAMB admission portal to avoid misinformation or delays. Below, you will find detailed instructions to help you access the official JAMB CAPS portal safely, check your admission status for the 2025/2026 academic year, understand what your admission status means, and take the right steps if you have been offered admission.
The JAMB Admission Portal Login
When it comes to checking your admission status or managing your JAMB details for the 2025/2026 session, it’s super important to use the official JAMB admission portal. This is where all your admission information is stored and updated by JAMB itself.
The official JAMB portal you should use is called the JAMB e-Facility Portal. You can access it directly by going to this website: https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng.
You might also hear people call this portal by different names, such as:-
- JAMB CAPS Portal (CAPS stands for Central Admissions Processing System, which is part of the e-Facility)
- JAMB Admission Portal
- JAMB Online Portal
All these names generally point to the same place where you log in to check your admission status, accept or reject admission offers, print your admission letter, and carry out other important JAMB services.
How to Check Your JAMB Admission Status on the Official JAMB Portal
Finding out whether you have been admitted for the 2025/2026 session is quick and easy through the official JAMB e-Facility Portal. Just follow these simple steps to check your admission status:-
- Open your browser and go to https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng.

Understanding Your Admission Status
Upon checking your admission status, you may encounter one of the following messages:-

- “Admission in Progress”: Your admission is still being processed. Keep checking the portal for updates.

How to Accept or Reject Your JAMB Admission Offer and Print Your Admission Letter for 2025/2026
If you have been offered admission, it’s very important to show that you are interested by accepting the offer on the JAMB portal. Also, once you accept, you should print your official admission letter from JAMB. Here’s how to do both:-
- Log in to the JAMB e-Facility portal and click on “Access My CAPS.”
- On the CAPS dashboard, click on “Admission Status.” If you have an admission offer, you’ll see options to either “Accept” or “Reject” the admission.
- Choose the option that suits you. Remember, once you accept or reject the admission, this decision cannot be changed later, so choose carefully.
- After accepting your admission, you can print your official admission letter. On the CAPS dashboard, click “Print Admission Letter.”
