How to Upload O’Level Result on the JAMB Portal

Candidates who need to submit their O’Level results to JAMB can now complete the process from the comfort of their homes through JAMB’s updated O’Level result verification and upload system. The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has introduced a process that allows candidates’ results to be verified directly with the relevant examination bodies before they are uploaded to the candidate’s JAMB profile.

According to the JAMB Bulletin, the new arrangement is designed to make the process easier, faster and safer while reducing unnecessary visits to CBT centres and the problems associated with manual result uploads.

Why JAMB Introduced the New O’Level Result Process

JAMB explained that the new arrangement is intended to address some of the challenges associated with manual O’Level uploads. These include misplaced or mixed-up paper results, unverified or fraudulent results, and errors when subjects and grades are entered manually.

Through the integration of JAMB’s e-Facility platform with examination bodies, results can be verified directly against the records of the relevant examination body before being downloaded into the candidate’s profile.

What to Do If You Have Two O’Level Sittings

If you are using two O’Level results, make sure both results are included during the verification process. After verification, follow the notification to your JAMB e-Facility profile, select “2026 UTME O’Level Upload”, enter your Verification Code and review the two verified results displayed on your profile.

You should then select the required subjects while observing JAMB’s minimum of 5 subjects and maximum of 9 subjects, ensuring that no subject is selected more than once.
