How to accept or reject 2024 admissions without JAMB SIM card

JAMB has earlier made it clear that you can only accept or reject admission in 2024 using the USSD codes 55019 or 66019 from your JAMB registered phone number. But misplacing your SIM card or having it damaged can hinder you from remotely managing your admissions in the 2024 exercise. In light of this, recent provisions by JAMB offer solutions for individuals facing this issue just as you can now check your UTME result by printing your original 2024 JAMB results slip. Here’s how to proceed to accept or reject your 2024 admission without your SIM:
