Learn how to print JAMB admission letter easily without paying any extra money. Simple steps for you.
If you just gained admission and you’re asking yourself how to print your JAMB admission letter without paying extra money, you are not alone. Let me share with you a true story.
My neighbor, Chuka, just finished writing his second UTME exam. After so much hard work and prayers, he finally got admission. But then, another wahala came — he needed his JAMB admission letter. He first thought he must go and pay somebody at a café a lot of money before he could get it.
Luckily, we showed him how to print it himself online, using his phone and small money for data. In the end, he printed his JAMB admission letter without paying any agent extra.
In this post, I want to show you the exact simple steps Chuka followed so that you too can save your money and do it yourself.
No long grammar, just straight to the point, the way we explain things here.
How Much Does It Cost to Print a JAMB Admission Letter?
One of the first questions Chuka asked me was, “Oga, how much does it cost to print JAMB admission letter?”
I smiled and told him the truth. The official price to print your JAMB admission letter is ₦1,000. That is the amount JAMB charges you on their portal.
Apart from that, if you are paying online, you may pay a small transaction charge, like ₦100 to ₦300, depending on how you pay.
So, in total, you should spend around ₦1,100 to ₦1,300 if you are doing it yourself online.
However, if you go to a cyber café, those people may charge you from ₦2,000 up to ₦5,000 or even more.
That is why it is better you learn how to print your JAMB admission letter by yourself, and avoid paying double or triple the normal price.

If you have forgotten your registration number, don’t panic. You can still retrieve it from your JAMB profile or check your previous SMS or email from JAMB.
How to Check JAMB Admission Status Before Printing
Now, you must be thinking, “How do I know if JAMB has given me admission before I waste my money to print?”
That is a very good question. Before you even think of printing your JAMB admission letter, you must first check if you have been admitted.
Here’s how to do it:
Go to https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng/.

Click on “Check Admission Status”.
Choose your exam year (for example, 2025 or 2026).
Enter your JAMB registration number.
Click “Check Admission Status” again.
If you see “Congratulations! You have been offered admission,” then you are free to move to the next step and print your letter.
If you see “Not admitted yet,” just calm down. It means your school or JAMB has not yet finalized your admission.
In that case, you should be checking it from time to time.
