[ICYM] Step-by-Step Guide on Checking 2025 UTME Results

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially released the results for the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). If you�re one of the candidates who sat for the exam this year, it�s time to check your results and take the next big step in your academic journey.

To assist candidates who may be checking their UTME results for the first time�or who want a refresher�this guide breaks down the various ways to check your results, along with important information you need to know. In case you missed it (ICYM), here is a comprehensive step-by-step guide to checking your 2025 UTME results.

Option 1: Checking UTME Results via SMS

This is the fastest and easiest way to check your UTME results, especially if you don�t have internet access.

Steps:

1. Open the messaging app on your phone.
2. Type �UTMERESULT� (no spaces or quotation marks).
3. Send the message to 55019 or 66019 using the same SIM card used during your UTME registration.
4. Wait for a response. In a few seconds to minutes, you will receive an SMS reply containing your UTME result breakdown (subject scores and total score).

Important Notes:

• Ensure you have at least N50 airtime on your phone before sending the message.
• Do not send the message with a phone number that wasn�t registered during your UTME registration�it won�t work.
• You may get a �No Result Yet� message if your result is still being processed, or if there�s a problem (e.g., suspected exam malpractice).

Option 2: Checking UTME Results Online via JAMB Portal

If you have access to a smartphone, tablet, or computer with internet, you can also check your result through the official JAMB result portal.
