JAMB Saying Point System is not a criteria for Admission


One week after the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) allegedly approved the point system option for admission into tertiary institutions in the country, the body insists that the federal government-approved option still holds sway.


Specifically, it says the 2016 admissions will be conducted purely on the three existing admission pillars of merit, catchment area and educational less developed states through prescribed processes. The examining body said that the point system being peddled was a mere illustration made by The Registrar/Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the board, prof. Dibu Ojerinde. In a statement, the board said rather than resort to the much touted point system, the federal government had approved the re-enforcement of admission guideline as recognized by law.
