Go to JAMB result checking portal at http://www.jamb.org.ng/eFacility/CheckUTMEResults.
Enter your JAMB Registration Number/Email Address in the required column.
Click on ‘Check My Results’ and the portal will load your result if it’s ready.
Note that UTME results are released in batches. If the portal returns with ‘You Do Not Have Any Result Yet’, that implies your result is not yet ready. So you have to check back later.
