IJMB in Nigeria: How to Gain Admission
IJMB (Interim Joint Matriculation Board) is one of the most reliable alternatives to JAMB for gaining admission into Nigerian universities. If you’ve ever missed admission through JAMB or want a faster, guaranteed route into 200 level, then this article is for you. Here, you’ll learn everything you need to know about IJMB registration, admission process, benefits, and how Alphayem Educational Consult can help you secure your spot.
What is IJMB?
IJMB stands for Interim Joint Matriculation Board Examination. It’s an advanced level (A’ Level) programme moderated by Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, and approved by the Federal Government of Nigeria as an alternative to JAMB. The programme runs for about 9 to 12 months and allows successful candidates to gain direct entry admission into 200 level of any Nigerian university that accepts IJMB.
Benefits of the IJMB Programme
- Gain direct admission into 200 level without writing JAMB.
- IJMB results are valid for life—unlike JAMB which expires yearly.
- Accepted by many top federal, state, and private universities in Nigeria.
- Flexible study centers across the country.
- Opportunity to combine with other exams (like JAMB) for multiple chances.
How IJMB Works
Students register and undergo intensive lectures for 9–12 months at an accredited IJMB study center. After the lectures, they sit for the final IJMB examination coordinated by ABU Zaria. Depending on your result (measured in points), you can apply for direct entry (200 level) admission into your preferred university through JAMB Direct Entry (DE) portal.
IJMB Admission Requirements
To register for the IJMB programme, applicants must have:
- Five (5) O’Level credits (in not more than two sittings), including English and Mathematics.
- Recent passport photographs.
- Valid means of identification (NIN, School ID, or National ID).
- Registration fee as advised by the accredited center or consultant.
