How to Recover/Retrieve JAMB Profile Code 2023 SMS & Email

In this article, I will primarily focus on guiding you on how to recover and retrieve JAMB Profile Code 2023 through email and SMS (phone text message).

I shall also teach you how to retrieve your lost profile code (for those who want to use their last year profile code and those who have forgotten their own)

Note: if you are one of the candidates that registered JAMB last year, then you can still use your last year’s JAMB profile code to register this year. See how to do it here.

For those trying to generate their code for the first time, I have explained how to get JAMB profile code 2023 via email and SMS here.

Is Profile Code and Confirmation Code the Same?

Ever since 2021, the JAMB Profile creation process has changed and it is advisable to learn the new procedures to avoid having errors when trying to use the old methods.

Now candidates need to send a message to JAMB to get their profile code and then use it to complete the setting up of their profile.

Back to the question, JAMB profile code and JAMB confirmation code are the same. The profile code is also your confirmation code.

Can I use my old JAMB profile code?

YES

I wrote Jamb last year but was offered a course at a University different from my choice. I want to apply for Jamb again this year and I’ve been sending my NIN to 55019 but keeps saying I should send help to the number which I did but nothing still. Though I accept the course but I want to try Jamb for my preferred course. If I used last year profile code, won’t it affect my admission because Jamb hasn’t given me admission letter yet, I only got admission notification from the university and when I checked my Jamb portal, it says I have not been offered admission yet. Won’t registering for Jamb again with last year profile code affect my admission from Jamb?
