It is very important for every candidate to have a JAMB profile code which will be used to register for the JAMB examination. If you don’t have the profile code, you won’t be able to create a JAMB profile which will be used to access your CAPS to monitor your admission process.
Furthermore, every candidate must have an active NIN (National Identification Number) to register for JAMB. Candidates can create their JAMB profile from their mobile phones without visiting the cybercafé.
