JAMB Cracks Down on False Admission Claims

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is cracking down on false claims of admission denial. In recent times, the board has noticed a surge in misinformation spread by parents, which can be damaging to the reputation of universities and the education system as a whole.

A closer examination of these claims has revealed that many are unfounded. For instance, a parent recently accused the University of Calabar of denying their child admission, despite the student's score being below the required threshold.

According to Dr. Fabian Benjamin, JAMB's spokesperson, the board is committed to ensuring transparency and fairness in the admission process. "We urge parents to be cautious and verify information through official channels before making claims," he emphasized.

Furthermore, JAMB is tackling the abuse of the "exceptionally brilliant" category, which is meant for candidates under 16 who demonstrate exceptional academic prowess. The board has noticed that this category is being exploited, with many candidates being registered under false pretenses.

As JAMB continues to promote integrity and transparency in the education system, parents are advised to be mindful of the information they share and to rely on official channels for verification. By doing so, we can work together to maintain the credibility of our education system.

Remember to always check facts before sharing. This helps keep the admission process fair and honest. If you're unsure about anything, don't hesitate to seek help. Reach out to the right authorities and ask for clarity on issues of concern. By doing so, you'll be able to make informed decisions.
