If you are a 2025/2026 UTME candidate, uploading your WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB O’Level results to the JAMB CAPS portal is a crucial step toward securing admission into Nigerian universities, polytechnics, or colleges of education.

In this comprehensive guide, you’ll learn why the upload is important, what’s required, how to upload, how to confirm it’s successful, and how to fix issues. Let’s get started!

Why Uploading O’Level Results to JAMB CAPS is Important

Admission Eligibility: Institutions verify your grades through JAMB CAPS before offering admission.
Screening/Verification: Many schools require proof of at least 5 credits including English and Mathematics.
JAMB Validation: JAMB must verify your result before you can accept admission on CAPS.

Requirements Before Upload

Requirement	Details
✔ JAMB Profile	Visit efacility.jamb.gov.ng to confirm profile access.
✔ WAEC/NECO/NABTEB Result	Ensure you have your printed result (original or online version).
✔ Consistent Info	Your name, date of birth, and subjects must match JAMB registration details.
✔ Accredited Centre	You must go to a JAMB-approved CBT centre to upload.

Step-by-Step: How to Upload O’Level Results to JAMB CAPS

Step 1: Go to a JAMB-accredited CBT centre (not a café or roadside operator).
Step 2: Provide your JAMB registration number and valid ID.
Step 3: Submit your O’Level result(s) — single or two sittings are allowed.
Step 4: The CBT officer will upload and confirm your grades on CAPS.
Step 5: Request a printout or confirmation after the upload.

Sample: Two-Sitting Upload Example

If you are combining results (e.g., WAEC 2023 + NECO 2024), inform the CBT staff. Make sure both are correctly listed before submission.

How to Confirm Upload on JAMB CAPS

To check if your result is uploaded successfully:

Go to efacility.jamb.gov.ng.
Login and click “Check Admission Status”.
Click “Access My CAPS”.
Select “My O’Level”. You’ll see your uploaded grades.

⚠️ Common Issues & Troubleshooting

Issue	How to Fix
Result Not Showing	Return to the CBT centre and request a re-upload.
Wrong Subject Grades	Request correction and re-upload. Double-check names and subject listings.
Used Awaiting Result (AR)	Upload the real result as soon as it's released to avoid being disqualified.

When is the Deadline to Upload?

The upload should be done before your school’s admission list is released. Early upload = better chances of admission. Monitor updates from both JAMB and your institution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I upload online by myself?: No. Only accredited CBT centres and JAMB offices can upload results.
How much does upload cost?: Usually ₦500 – ₦1000 depending on the centre. Do not pay more.
Can I change or correct a result later?: Yes, but you’ll need to revisit a CBT centre for it.
Can I upload combined results (two sittings)?: Yes. Ensure your school accepts it and that both results are valid.
What happens if I don’t upload?: You will not be considered for admission — even if you score high in JAMB.

Final Tips

Only use JAMB-approved centres.
Double-check all uploaded data before leaving the centre.
Keep a copy or screenshot of your upload confirmation.
