The Mop Up UTME gives candidates who missed the main exam due to technical glitches, biometric issues or other issues one final chance to take the test. This is why anticipation for the results is so high.
The results will determine if you will be a student of a Nigerian University in the next session or not, so checking and printing this result is especially important for everyone affected.
JAMB has announced the release of the 2026 Mop Up UTME Results: Affected Candidates Can Now Access UTME Mop Up Results. Candidates who participated in the examination can now check their results through the Board’s established result checking channels.
How To Check Your Result Via SMS
The fastest way to get your score works without internet access:
- Use the same phone number and SIM card linked to your JAMB registration and National Identification Number.
- Type UTMERESULT exactly as one word, with no spaces.
- Send it to 55019 or 66019.
- Make sure you have at least N50 airtime before sending.
- JAMB’s reply usually arrives almost immediately with your score.
How To Check Your Result Online
You can also check your score through the JAMB eFacility portal or the result checking link.
- Visit efacility.jamb.gov.ng.
- Enter your JAMB registration number. If you cannot remember it, use the email address you registered with instead.
- Enter your password if you are prompted for one.
- Click “Check My Result” or “Login,” depending on which page you land on.
- Your subject scores and aggregate will display on your screen once it loads.
How To Print Your Result Slip
Once printing is activated, the process is straightforward and runs through the same eFacility portal.
- Go to efacility.jamb.gov.ng and log in with your registered email address and password.
- On your dashboard, click “Print Result Slip.”
- Select the correct examination year.
- Enter your JAMB registration number.
- Pay the required Printing Fee through your debit card or any accepted payment option.
- Download the generated slip as a PDF, then print it.
Your result slip carries your passport photograph, full subject scores and the Institutions’ request during post UTME screening. So, it is important that you print as soon as the portal allows you to.
What If Your Result Is Not Showing Yet
A delay does not always signify a problem because results are released in batches.
If You Are Checking By SMS:
- Confirm UTMERESULT is spelled correctly as one word
- Confirm you sent it to the right shortcode, 55019 or 66019.
- Confirm you used the SIM registered to your JAMB profile.
- Confirm your airtime balance was at least N50 at the time of sending.
If you have checked all four points and you still can’t access your result, visit the nearest JAMB office with your registration details. JAMB staff will confirm whether the issue is a delay in batch processing or something that needs correcting on their end.
If You Are Checking On The Portal
- If you see “Result Withheld,” your result has been flagged for further review. This might be because of suspected irregularity at your centre. You cannot do anything at this stage so wait for JAMB to communicate with you.
- If you see “Result Not Available” or “No Record Found,” your result is probably still being processed and has not been uploaded for your batch yet. Check back after a day or two.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can someone else check my result for me using my registration number?
A: No. The check is tied to your registered phone number, not just your registration number.

A: Not necessarily. Batched release and ongoing centre scrutiny account for most delays.
Q: Why is the online portal loading slowly or not opening at all?
A: If the page is slow to load or times out, the might be heavy traffic. Try again early in the morning or late at night when the server has fewer people on it.

A: No, checking your result is free. A fee only applies when you print your official result slip.
Q: What if I have forgotten my Registration Number?
