If you wish to do any JAMB correction, then here is a simple tutorial on how to log in to the JAMB correction of mistakes portal 2022 to carry out your JAMB correction of data 2022/2023.
One common thing in JAMB registration is making mistakes. It is fully understood that there’s no way such a number of candidates can apply for the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board exam without making a single mistake.
As such, JAMB has provided room for any candidate that made a mistake during the registration to apply for correction.
With the JAMB data correction portal, candidates can correct some of the mistakes or wrong information that they provided during JAMB registration.

Can someone change JAMB email?

Currently, candidates can change their JAMB email. But this process is technical and requires carefulness. See how to change JAMB email here
Candidates can also link their email to their JAMB profile that was created with NIN only. You can see how to link email to JAMB profile 2022 here.
Can someone change JAMB phone number?
Currently, there’s no idea if candidates can actually change their JAMB phone number as JAMB didn’t list that among the details that can be corrected. But we believe it is possible.
