The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is responsible for conducting entrance exams for Nigerian tertiary institutions. Before registering for the JAMB exams, candidates need to obtain a JAMB profile code. This code serves as a unique identification number and is necessary for completing the registration process. In this blog post, we will discuss how to get a JAMB profile code through SMS.

This is How to Get JAMB Profile Code Through SMS

Step 1: Get a phone number to check your JAMB Profile code

The first step is to have access to a mobile phone. It can be a basic phone or a smartphone, as long as it is capable of sending and receiving SMS messages.

Step 2: Create a new SMS message

To create a new SMS message, go to the messaging app on your phone and select “New Message” or “Compose”. In the recipient field, enter “55019”.

Step 3: Send a message

In the message body, type “NIN”, followed by a space, then your 11-digit National Identification Number (NIN) without any dashes or spaces. If you do not have a NIN, you can type “New” instead. For example, if your NIN is 12345678901, your message should read: NIN 12345678901. Then send the message.

Step 4: Receive a response

Within a few minutes, you should receive a response from JAMB with your profile code. It will also contain your name and other details. Keep this message safe as you will need it for future registration processes.

If you encounter any issues or do not receive a response, you can try resending the message or contact JAMB customer service for assistance.

In conclusion, obtaining a JAMB profile code through SMS is a straightforward process. All you need is access to a mobile phone and your NIN. With this code, you can proceed with the JAMB registration process and take a step closer to achieving your academic goals.
