The Joint Admission and Matriculations Board has said Persons Living With Disability who wish to sit for
the 2024/2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination can register at no cost.

The JAMB Registrar, Ishaq Oloyede, disclosed this while rolling out the registration process for
interested candidates across the country.

While announcing that registration for the 2024 matriculation examination will commence on Monday,
(today), Oloyede said JAMB will issue free application documents to all categories of Persons Living With
Disability as a form of support.

Oloyede who disclosed that measures have been put in place to ensure a smooth exercise for all
candidates, said audio books will now be provided for all blind candidates.

The registrar said the development was a digital adaptation of the traditional reading book, noting that
it will come in popular audio formats such as MP3, WMV, and WMA which will be compatible with all
devices that can stream audio records.

He said the suggestion for the provision of audiobooks was made at the first National Conference on
Equal Opportunity of Access to Higher Education in Nigeria.

Apart from the blind candidates, other groups to benefit from the free registration according to the
examination body are people with Down syndrome, Autism, Dyslexia disorder and Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder.
