JAMBITES!! READ THIS BEFORE GOING FOR POST UTME - CHANGE OF COURSE/INSTITUTION FORM

After the release of the 2012 UTME results, Its is adviceable for Some Candidates to change their 1st or 2nd choice Courses or Institutions.



Changing of your Institution or Courses is 100% Safe and Legit because it is been done on Jamb Website, So no need to Panic.

This are likely Reasons why you may want to change your Course or Institution. There are obviously three good reasons why a candidate may need to change his/her jamb choice of course or institution or both:

1A. Due to Low UTME score: After the release of Jamb results, the next thing to face is Post-UTME and Admissions Processing. Now take for instance that someone applied for a Federal University who will probably fix a cut-off mark of 200 and above; if such candidate scored less than 200, it simply means he/she has lost the admission. In this case the change of institution to a state-owned/private University becomes necessary. State universities generally fix cut-off marks below 200 or so.

1B. Due to Low UTME score over Course Cut-Off: Just like case 1A above, this happens when a candidate choose a very competitive course like Law, Medicine and Surgery, Pharmacy, Engineering, etc. Several courses have greater number of Applicants than others and such courses invariably attract very high cut-off marks. To avoid being left aside as a candidate, it is advised to go for change of course within the same institution/faculty. e.g Imagine, You choose Pharmacy in OAU and you Score 230 in Jamb, Then OAU Released their Official Post UTME Cut-off mark for Pharmacy as 260, What you have to do is get the Jamb Change of Course/Institution Card and Change your Course to a less Competitive one like Biochemistry, Industrial Chemistry or any Related Field in OAU. Thats it.

2. Incomplete O'level Results: In this case candidates who may have ran into deficiency of required credit passes in some key/relevant subjects may decide to go for change of course to accommodate or if a Student want to make use of 2 Sitting to Apply for a Course, If you choose a Course like Computer Science for Instance, You can't gain Admission with such, what you have to do is choose a lesser course with low demand (Varies by School).

3. Mistakes during Registration: Was there any mistake while filling your registration form by either you or the business/cyber cafe? With this card, you can correct any errors made during registration of your course or institution.

4. Other Important Factors: These includes several factors ranging from finance, change in Geographical locations, Parent's suggestions, Fear of Tribal differences, e.g Boko Haram in the Northern Part etc. Such cases treated under this heading result to change of institution.
