The 2026 Unified Tertiary and Matriculation Exam (UTME) is ongoing, and indications are that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) will release candidates' results within 24 hours after each day's examination.

This was hinted at by JAMB's Head of Public Affairs and Communication, Fabian Benjamin, through an update on his official X account. According to the update, results for candidates who sat for the exam on the first day, April 16, are expected to be released before midnight on April 17.

JAMB may not make an official announcement when the results for each day are released. To monitor the release of the 2026 UTME results for each day, this post will be used to keep candidates informed about when results for each day have been released.

Candidates are urged to share if they have seen their results via email, SMS, or the official portal, and to indicate the day they wrote the exam. This will help other candidates who fall under the same category to check theirs as well. Feel free to engage in discussions concerning JAMB results, such as the score you hope to get or what score would be good enough for a particular course or institution. Candidates are advised to regularly check the comment section of this thread to know when results have been released to fellow candidates.
