Accredited JAMB CBT Centres in Ekiti State 2026/2027

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is the central body responsible for conducting entrance examinations for prospective undergraduates in Nigeria. Every year, thousands of students across the country prepare for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), a critical step toward securing admission into universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education. For the 2026/2027 academic session, JAMB continues to emphasize the use of accredited Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres to ensure a fair, secure, and efficient registration and examination process.

Ekiti State, known as the “Fountain of Knowledge” for its rich educational heritage, hosts several high-quality CBT centres. These facilities are equipped with modern computers, reliable power backups, high-speed internet, and trained personnel to handle the demands of digital testing. As of the latest updates, there are approximately 14 accredited JAMB CBT centres in Ekiti State, strategically located in major towns like Ado-Ekiti, Ikere-Ekiti, and Ijero-Ekiti. These centres not only facilitate UTME and Direct Entry (DE) registrations but also serve as venues for mock exams and the main UTME.

Choosing an accredited centre is essential. Unapproved cyber cafes or business centres often lead to registration errors, financial losses, or invalid results. JAMB strictly monitors these facilities to prevent malpractices, ensuring that every candidate’s data is accurately captured and results are promptly released. Registration for the 2026/2027 session is expected to commence in early 2026, with fees around N4,700, covering the form, recommended texts, and service charges. Candidates must present their National Identification Number (NIN), O’Level results, and a passport photograph.
