JAMB 2025 Profile Code and Registration FAQs: Official Answers to Common Issues
As the registration process for JAMB 2025 approaches, many candidates have questions regarding profile codes, registration requirements, and Direct Entry (DE) concerns.
This post answers the most frequently asked questions based on official guidelines from JAMB to ensure a seamless experience.
1. Issue: Lost Phone Number for Profile Code Generation
Oladimeji’s Question:
“I can’t generate my profile code because I lost the phone number I used before. Is there any way I can still register?”
If you have the previous profile code, you can still use it for registration. Ensure that you retrieve your linked email and other JAMB details for smooth access. If you encounter issues, visit the nearest JAMB office or accredited center for assistance.
2. Question: Re-registering After Previous JAMB Registration
Vickyvin’s Question:
“I registered for JAMB before but want to register again. Should I get a new SIM card to use for registration?”
Yes, candidates who have registered in previous years must use a phone number that has never been registered with JAMB before. This is to prevent any complications when generating a new profile code.
3. Profile Code Generation Issues
Emmanuel’s Question:
“I’m getting a ‘no record found’ message when generating my profile code. What should I do?”
JAMB’s Response:
The “no record found” message typically occurs when the National Identification Number (NIN) linked to your phone number is not correctly synced. Visit an NIMC center to confirm that your NIN is linked to your current phone number. If the issue persists, visit a JAMB office for support.
4. Reusing an Existing Profile Code
Brainson’s Question:
“I used the same number to generate my profile code last year, and it is still giving me the same code this year. Is that okay?”
JAMB’s Response:
Yes, it is completely fine to use the same profile code if you are registering with the same phone number. JAMB allows candidates to reuse their profile codes as long as the phone number and other details remain valid.
5. Issues with Blocked Phone Numbers and Profile Codes
Chinaka’s Question:
“My old phone number has been blocked, and I can’t retrieve it. Can I still use my previous profile code?”
JAMB’s Response:
If you have the previous profile code, you can use it to register without generating a new one. Make sure your email and other registration details are accessible. For long-term issues, you may need to visit a JAMB office for further assistance.
6. Generating New Profile Codes with a New Phone Number
Prince’s Question:
“Some students have already generated their profile codes with their previous numbers. Do they need to create new profile codes with a different phone number?”
JAMB’s Response:
No, students who have successfully generated their profile codes with their previous numbers do not need to create new codes. The existing profile code remains valid for registration.
7. Direct Entry Registration with Regularization Number
Dereal Arlhappy’s Question:
“Can my friend, who completed ND part-time and has his regularization approved, register for Direct Entry using his regularization number?”
JAMB’s Response:
Yes, your friend can register for Direct Entry using his regularization number. Ensure he follows the Direct Entry registration process and submits all required documents during registration.
