The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says it will hold its 2026 policy meeting on admissions on May 11 in Abuja.
In a statement, the board said the meeting will take place at the Body of Benchers Auditorium in Jabi, where stakeholders will set guidelines for the 2026/2027 admission exercise.
JAMB said the Minister of Education, Maruf Olatunji Alausa, is expected to unveil key policy directions at the event.
The annual policy meeting determines minimum Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) scores for admissions, as well as rules guiding entry into tertiary institutions.
Participants will include vice-chancellors, rectors, provosts, registrars and admission officers from across the country.
Regulatory agencies such as the National Universities Commission, National Commission for Colleges of Education and the National Board for Technical Education are also expected to attend.
JAMB said goodwill messages will be delivered by key stakeholders, including the Nigerian Education Loan Fund and the National Youth Service Corps.
The meeting will also feature the sixth edition of the National Tertiary Admissions Performance-Merit Awards, which recognises institutions for compliance with admission guidelines.
