How to Check Your 2025 JAMB Resit Result

Unsure how to access your 2025 JAMB resit result? This step-by-step guide walks you through the entire process. Follow carefully to ensure you don’t miss any crucial details or make avoidable errors.

JAMB Sets the Record Straight on Cancelled Results

There’s been a lot of chatter lately. Some rumors suggested that high scores from the cancelled exam sessions were retained. JAMB quickly debunked this, confirming that almost no one scored above 217 and that 99% of candidates scored under 200. So, any talk about students keeping their earlier high marks is false.

JAMB also cautioned against those spreading false claims to undermine the exam process, calling them troublemakers trying to disrupt the system.

Checking Your 2025 UTME Resit Result: The Right Way

There are two ways to check your result. Choose whichever works best for you, but follow the steps exactly.

Option 1: Use SMS

This method works for most people and doesn’t need internet. Here’s how to go about it:

1. Grab the phone you used to register for UTME.
2. Send this text:
   UTMERESULT
   Send it to 55019 or 66019.

Wait a bit. You’ll get a reply with your result as a text message.

What You Might Get in Response:

• Wrong phone? You’ll see: “This phone number was not used for registration.”
• You passed? The reply begins with: “Dear Mr/Miss X, your result is as follows…”
• Held result? Message says: “Result Withheld.”
• Under review? You’ll see: “Result withheld pending the upload of clarifications/documents required from you.”
• Missed the exam? You’ll get: “CANDIDATE ABSENT.”
• Registration cancelled? The reply will state that clearly.
• Entered exam hall without permission? You’ll see: “Invalid Entrance into the Exam Hall.”

Keep your reply message. It might come in handy later.

Option 2: Use the JAMB Portal

If you’d rather go online, here’s what to do:

1. Open a browser and go to the JAMB eFacility portal.
2. Log in with the same email and password you used during registration.
3. Once you’re in, click on “Check UTME Results.”

Your scores will pop up on the dashboard.
