According to him, failure to do this would mean the student is not interested and the body has the right to give the admission to any of the 1.6 million candidates who wrote JAMB-organised 2018 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), according to NAN.

In his words, "To this effect, therefore, we are urging candidates to go to our site and check their admission status and those who have been offered such admission should quickly indicate by accepting and printing such offer, as failure to do so will automatically mean the candidate is no longer interested. And therefore, the board may see all such offers as rejected and would have no option than to mop them up and give it to other interested candidates."

Students have been advised to secure their admission before October 16, 2018.

The  Head, Media, and Information of the JAMB continued: "Candidates are to accept or reject all offers not later than Oct.16 as that is when all offers of admissions of first choice will close."

Benjamin added, "After that, we will commence admission exercise for the second choice of candidates."

This year's Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination was conducted from March 9 to 17, 2018.
