If JAMB has offered you admission and your school has also admitted you, the next important step is physical clearance/screening.
Many admitted candidates make the mistake of resuming without complete documents, only to face unnecessary delays. To avoid that, start preparing these documents early.
1. JAMB Admission Letter
This is one of the most important documents for your clearance. It proves that JAMB has officially offered you admission.
2. JAMB Original Result Slip
The original result slip contains your passport photograph and your UTME details. Most institutions require it during screening.
3. O'Level Result(s)
You'll need your WAEC, NECO, NABTEB, or equivalent result. If you combined two sittings, carry both result certificates or printouts.
4. Birth Certificate or Declaration of Age
Most schools request this as proof of your date of birth.
5. Certificate of Origin/State of Origin
This confirms your state and local government of origin. It is usually obtained from your local government or community authority.
6. Passport Photographs
Carry several recent passport photographs with a white or red background, depending on your school's requirement.
7. Acceptance Fee Receipt
Your institution will request for an acceptance fee receipt, print the payment receipt as proof that you have accepted the admission.
9. School Fees Receipt (If Applicable)
Some schools require newly admitted students to pay school fees before completing clearance.
10. Post-UTME Registration Slip
This shows that you participated in the institution's admission screening process.
11. Online Screening/Clearance Forms
Print all forms generated from your school's admission portal, as they may be required during physical verification.
12. Course Registration or Biodata Printout (If Available)
Some institutions ask admitted students to complete online biodata before physical screening. Print every completed form.
13. Photocopies of All Documents
Always make multiple photocopies of every document. Many screening units will collect copies while you retain the originals for verification.
MOST IMPORTANTLY
- Arrange all your documents neatly in a file.
- Keep both the original copies and several photocopies.
- Read your institution's screening instructions carefully because requirements may differ from one school to another.
- Do not wait until the last minute to obtain important documents.
Remember: Every institution has its own screening requirements. Always check your school's official guidelines to confirm if there are additional documents you need.
A well-prepared candidate completes screening faster and avoids unnecessary stress.
