The 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for 24,535 candidates has been rescheduled by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) due to significant non-compliance with its standards at the affected centers.

In a statement released on Sunday, JAMB’s spokesman, Dr Fabian Benjamin, announced that the Board has also released an additional 3,921 withheld results.

The statement reads in part: “The Board has painstakingly analysed the process and conduct of the 2024 UTME in some centres where there are strong proofs of substantial non-compliance with the Board’s standards.

”Consequently, 24,535 candidates have been rescheduled to retake the examination in their chosen Examination Towns on Saturday, June 22, 2024.

”Meanwhile, 3,921 outstanding 2024 UTME results that had been cleared have now been released.
