If you signed up for the mock UTME, this is your cue to get prepared early.
Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has announced that candidates can now print their 2026 Mock UTME examination slips.
The update was shared via the board’s official X handle, directing candidates to visit its website and access their slips using their registration number.
“This is to inform all candidates that registered for mock examination that Mock UTME slip is now available for printing…,” the board stated.
The mock exam is scheduled for Saturday, March 28, 2026, and is designed to help candidates get familiar with the computer-based test format before the main exam.
For many students, this is more than just a practice test—it’s a chance to understand the exam environment, manage time better, and reduce anxiety ahead of the real UTME.
The main UTME is expected to hold from April 16 to April 25, 2026.
It’s important to note that the mock exam is optional and only available to candidates who selected and paid for it during registration.
Candidates are advised to print their slips early to confirm their exam date, centre, and other key details—because showing up prepared can make all the difference.
