The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has opened the portal for the printing of 2026 Mock UTME slips from Monday, 23 March 2026. Candidates who registered for the mock examination can now access and print their slips to confirm their exam venue and time ahead of the test scheduled for Saturday, 28 March 2026.
The mock examination is designed to test the Computer-Based Test (CBT) system while also helping candidates become familiar with the exam environment before the main UTME.
How To Print The JAMB Mock Slip
JAMB has provided two official methods for candidates to check and print their mock examination slips.
Option 1: Through The Mock Slip Portal
- Visit the official JAMB mock slip printing portal
- Slip Printing Portal @https://slipsprinting.jamb.gov.ng/mock-examination
- Enter your JAMB registration number or email address
- Click on “Generate Mock Slip”
- Print the slip once it appears on the screen
Option 2: Through JAMB eFacility
- Visit the JAMB eFacility portal
- Log in using your email address and password
- Access your dashboard

What The Mock Slip Contains
The mock slip provides essential details required for the examination, including:
- Examination venue
- Date of the exam
- Reporting time
Candidates are advised to carefully review this information, as it determines where and when they are expected to sit for the mock test.
JAMB Extends Mock Exam Duration
JAMB has announced that the 2026 Mock UTME will last for four hours, instead of the usual two hours. According to the board, this adjustment is aimed at giving candidates more time to familiarise themselves with the CBT system.
The examination will be conducted in two sessions:
- 8:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m.
- 10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Candidates are expected to participate in both sessions consecutively. EducationNGR gathered that this extended format is part of JAMB’s strategy to improve candidates’ readiness for the main UTME.
Participation Is Mandatory
The JAMB Registrar, Is-haq Oloyede, has stated that participation in the mock examination is compulsory for all candidates who registered for it.
He emphasised that the mock has limited slots, and any candidate who fails to attend wastes an opportunity that could have been given to another interested applicant.
Candidates are therefore advised to make adequate preparations and ensure they attend the mock examination as scheduled.
